We all live in them (probably). This comic contains some of Chris&#8217;s ideas for what cities could be, or at least where they could be; he also has a lengthy introduction where he speculates on what could be going on in these cities, but since they exist in worlds that we can&#8217;t get to yet, it&#8217;s hard to say much for sure. This is a silent comic (after that introduction) with titles for what type of cities are depicted on these two page spreads, and since it&#8217;s silent it&#8217;s once again one of those things where I&#8217;d be giving away the comic if I said too much about what types of cities are depicted. There are some solid ideas in here (and some ideas that will almost certainly come true if humanity is going to survive all of the climate change going on), and if you&#8217;re the type with a solid imagination, you&#8217;re absolutely going to take a few minutes out of your day to wonder what a city in a tree would actually be like. Oops, I gave away one of the cities! Anyway, this is a fun (and occasionally gorgeous) comic, so give it a shot why don&#8217;t you? Especially if you&#8217;ve read some of his other comics and enjoyed them. Eh, you know how comics work by now right? $6<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"713\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-1024x713.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29135\" srcset=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-1024x713.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-768x535.jpg 768w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-1536x1070.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-2048x1426.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-250x174.jpg 250w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-175x122.jpg 175w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-38x26.jpg 38w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG_20250720_0004-309x215.jpg 309w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Cities Cities!
