Actually not all spiders spin webs, Wolf spiders chase their prey. So 'Future Guy' could get equally confused but limited observations of just one type.

Anyone think this is the character from the Steroids comic? Looks fairly similar.

:It does seem to be the same basic design, but not identical. Of course, the whatever-it-is seen here is not even depicted consistently from panel to panel, so the differences from #1173 don't mean it's a different character, either.

Good as a joke, but note that the visitor from future is speaking English. The idea that English will remain but knowledge about webs vanishes ... seriously? Did no one though about spiders used to download parts of world wide web in future? -- [[User:Hkmaly|Hkmaly]] ([[User talk:Hkmaly|talk]]) 13:47, 18 October 2016 (UTC) | Good as a joke, but note that the visitor from future is speaking English.

:Considering this comic is about time travel, I somehow doubt Randall was setting out to be scientifically accurate [[Special:Contributions/162.158.142.219|162.158.142.219]] 16:17, 18 October 2016 (UTC) | :Considering this comic is about time travel, I somehow doubt Randall was setting out to be scientifically accurate [[Special:Contributions/162.158.142.219|162.158.142.219]] 16:17, 18 October 2016 (UTC) | ||

did anyone notice that the time traveller says "your planet's spiders". It's possible that a far distant future human is living on a different planet, but it's odd phrasing.
