[Cueball is standing, with his arms out, in front of a prototaxite (incorectly refered to in this comic as a "parataxtite') towering over a mossy landscape. To his right, a Tamagotchi, and milk-caps (refered to in this comic as "pogs"), appear.]

Cueball: Who else rembembers pogs? Tamagotchis? Vast forests of Parataxites towering over the mossy landscape as armored fish stir in the deep?

I'm not a paleobotanist by any stretch of the imagination, but the comic contains an error. It should be `prototaxites` instead of `parataxites`. Blagae (talk) 12:57, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

Explainxkcd was down when this comic came out, which I would assume is why the explanation is blank, but I'm just glad the page is back up. K9Dragon23, or RainWingSquares (talk) (talk) 13:56, 9 June 2026 (UTC)
