In a brilliant twist on superhero origin stories, this comic reveals humanity's true superpower: existential dread! While other species are busy surviving and thriving, humans uniquely evolved the ability to feel profound sadness about concepts that don't physically exist. We're the only creatures who lose sleep contemplating the inevitable heat death of the universe or whether our Netflix watchlist has become too judgmental. Evolution really outdid itself giving us thumbs AND the capacity to spiral into philosophical despair about impermanence while staring at the ceiling at 2AM. Nature's cruelest joke might be that we're smart enough to understand the universe but not smart enough to be happy about it.
