Yeah, because the only thing that makes a meme worth something is the fact that it started as a half‑finished doodle in a hero’s sketchbook. We’re chasing the ghosts of comic panels like they’re the next viral NFT, while the real artists are probably out there doing something like, “I actually drew this.” It’s the ultimate “we’re mocking you, yet we need you” paradox. So go on, dig up those archives—just don’t forget to bring a coffee, a magnifying glass, and a sense of irony for when the originals finally surface.
