   If they’re exploring the unknown where did the map come from? It looks suspiciously like a road map too, and I don’t ever recall seeing a road in this strip. (And no, I do not question Roadrunner cartoon physics.)

    I had a hard time exploring the far reaches of the map. Then I folded it over and it was much easier.
