I don’t mind the illustration work, but I feel like the premise and writing need some help. The protagonist is clearly plagued by being an armless hot head, nothing wrong with that, but does he have any depth beyond that or is every comic going to be a rehash of the same theme?
Yeah totally, I've got a 17 part epic masterpiece planned. There's gonna plots, subplots, subterfuge, love, betrayal, double fake-outs, all that stuff. It'll be the most intense comic about a floating, burning, disembodied head ever.
There's a dump near my workplace that has old radioactive waste buried deep. It is also on fire (underground) and has been slowly burning for like the last decade.
Depends on what you mean by flammable. Yes it exists, but it’s not explosive like in the comic, and it definitely wouldn’t set off a nuclear explosion.
That being said, not all nuclear waste comes from nuclear power plants. For example medical isotope production facilities and nuclear medicine departments at hospitals have nuclear waste as well. Most gets stored on-site until the radioactive elements decay below a certain threshold and it can go with the regular waste, but some waste containing longer-lived radionuclides gets transferred to facilities where it can be stored for several years.
Nuclear research facilities will likely have some flammable waste as well.
Hey, no offense. You probably work hard on it and all that. I appreciate the effort.
It's just not for me. I just don't see a) any message that speaks to me, personally (probably not looking hard enough or am able to see subtlety clearly enough, or something), or b) anything that sticks out to me as comical.
But you have every right to post, so I don't want you to stop posting because of me. (You clearly won't, either, judging by your tough-skinned response, so that's great. 👍)

This is so stupid, I love it. It reminds me of comics my brother and I would make when we were in elementary school.

I'd actually like to see that.

Other people simply want to relax and see a comic about a flaming head without having to think.

Can't wait for the FHCU, the Flaming Head Cinematic Universe.

It's just a comic but made me think. Is there nuclear waste that's flammable?
KokusnussRitter@discuss.tchncs.de · 3 pts · 63d
I don't think so. And if there is, the cask it's transported in would not be damaged by a floating burning head hitting it.
Photonic@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 63d
I don’t know. This head looks pretty giant. About as big as the trailer of the truck.
But even if it was damaged and there were some flammable fluids inside it still wouldn’t set off a nuclear explosion.

Yes! Uranium and plutonium metals are not only flammable, but are also pyrophoric, meaning the can self ignite in air.

That sounds interesting. Do you mind sharing where the dump is?

I wish it were a rule to put the name of the comic in the title, so we can weed out the low quality ones according to preference.
Hawanja@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 63d
See? My "low quality" comic spurrned a meaningful discussion about the storage and disposal of nuclear waste.
You're welcome.
