Well, It's either the Zombies, Martians with competent medical skills, or The Colour Out Of Space.

DIS-cuss.

That was irresistable, I'm sorry.

This sounds like it might create an economic crisis. Peru is a poor nation unable to afford significant medical care and might whore itself out to drug lords in order to pick up money to help cure this potential pandemic.

A green streak eh? That'd most likely mean the meterorite contained a lot of copper sulphate, which is used widely in pesticides and fungicides. The impact combined with the heat would have sent a lot of the copper sulphate into the surrounding air, and if the villagers and police breathed in that air...
This is no disease, this is chemical poisoning.






Although it would have been pretty awesome if there was some disease like zombification or the Flood.

I'm tempted to say fake.

Its the Colour out of Space! Just wait until all of the residents become dried husks.

Mac Sirloin 09-24-2007 04:59 AM

Oh thats terrible.

PV, Havoc, you guys emit nerdiness more than a tattoo of a video game character.

Strike Witch 09-24-2007 03:05 PM

Oh SHI-

COLOUR OUT OF SPACE!

skillyaslig 09-24-2007 08:08 PM

huh, strange. Maybe its like the movie 'the invasion'. Even though that movie is UTTER rubbish, a meteror or whatever, does crash and people go weird...

"Damn, we are screwed".

How is the village, on a more serious note?

mudling 09-24-2007 11:47 PM

It's a conspiracy! It's a distraction! It's a fake!
Either way, all options including if this realy real, someone is screwed, mainly us.
My brother saw something that reeks UFO.
Great, so we're going to be invaded, expecially as year 2012 is comming up, damn it.

Who cares if the Mayans said the world would end in 2012? They practiced human sacrifice and believed the stars were made of some god.

Bullet Magnet 09-25-2007 03:45 AM

2012 is when the Mayans buy a new calendar (if they still existed). Nothing to worry about.

Strike Witch 09-30-2007 01:37 AM

The Calendar was CIRCULAR. Of course it's going to end on some even number.

Duh.

mudling 10-01-2007 01:55 AM

But didn't the Mayans predict the spanish? or was that the Aztecs. Well, the Aztecs predicted a god that looked like the spannish, and would come at the same time as them, so maybe they kind of got these prophecies from the Mayans which they conquered.
But I guess there are quite a few reasons that would shouldn't be around anymore, or at this state (commets, giant volcanoes, etc.) but we are.
This meteroite may have just introduced a virus or something (like in spiderman, lol, not realy) , and since virus's are supposed to be non living due to the abcense of a celluar wall or something, that doesn't prove life outside of earth either.
Or probably a material that had a chemical reaction with the materials in earth, or water.

Mac Sirloin 10-01-2007 07:41 AM

Maybe it was atomic and released radiation, ah who cares.

In other "Its Over"esue news, For Better Or For Worse, the single most boring comic of all time, has stopped production.

Hail Satan!

Laser 10-01-2007 08:03 AM

i really don't care, nor will i ever care, about when humanity is going to be wiped out
all i have to say is: to some degree we deserve it
