Given that the design is a screenshot, the flag could be part of an existing logo, e.g. of a U.S. sport association.--162.158.150.82 14:15, 24 March 2017 (UTC)

The comic states "our NEW country" so I removed the theory it could be a new US flag. The most recent sovereign state, according to Wikipedia, is South Sudan created in 2011 so we could assume Randall never intended to talk about a real-life country 162.158.234.28 14:25, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
