Explanation

This comic is another in the string of "My Hobby" comics. Large banners are sometimes flown behind airplanes to advertise a product or event to a large number of people. Here Randall suggests replacing the ad with an interesting fact. This would let people who see the banner learn something new and interesting, rather than trying to sell them something. He presents two possible facts to use: Adriamycin and Iry-Hor.
The chemotherapy drug doxorubicin, trade name Adriamycin, is based on a strain of the bacterium Streptomyces peucetius isolated from a soil sample taken at Castel del Monte in Andria, Italy.
This is one of several comics dealing with cancer and its treatment. Randall's fiancée (now his wife) was diagnosed with Stage III breast cancer in October of 2010, and it has been a recurring topic ever since.
Iry-Hor was an ancient, predynastic pharaoh of ancient Egypt. His existence only became widely accepted in 2012[citation needed]. We are aware of and have the remains of older humans, but have not learned their names, so far.
