The writer of the comic in the article, Ryan North, also wrote The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl which is full of nerdy computer science puns. And many science-based solutions to problems our heroes encounter.
I highly recommend this series. You can read it on Marvel Unlimited, which has a free trial. I suggest reading on a tablet.

- fknorangesite 5y agoI remember following this twitter thread (North is a very worthwhile follow) as it happened and it was a real delight.
- jedimastert 5y agoHoly smokes! I never read the comic that much, but I did read a book of short stories based around an idea from one of his comics: The Machine of Death. Highly recommended, it's rather good. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_of_Death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_of_Death
