Is it just me or is the title text explanation trying to say something? 108.162.216.112 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
This looks a lot like the island with an old airfield in Kerbal Space Program. 162.158.238.112 09:15, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
- The first beta release of Kerbal Space Program was in 2015, this comic is form 2005. --Dgbrt (talk) 19:44, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

If the Boy and his Barrel series had gone a different way, this could be part of it. RadiantRainwing (talk) 00:59, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
