3 Dimensional Language

Today's webcomic:

The Hot Fudge Sundae Adventure Club.  Issue 18.  Page 8.  www.torcpress.com

So, on Panel 2, Omnichronus speaks.  That big, glowing cube is his dialogue.  Allow me to explain.

Omnichronus is a 9th Dimensional Being.  We are 3 Dimensional Beings.  Omnichronus is a creature that is so far beyond our level of comprehension, that I don't even really know how to properly describe the gulf between us.  I guess from an evolutionary standpoint, we would be single celled organisms, and he would be a blue whale.  The version of Omnichronus we see on pages 7 and 8 isn't actually the real Omnichronus either.  This version is actually a 3 Dimensional Avatar sent into lower dimensional space to act as a proxy for the real Omnichronus that is still over in the 9th Dimension.  If you have a copy of "Clown & Penguin" #2, there's a really cool shot of what Omnichronus looks like in all of his glory.

Back in "The Hot Fudge Sundae Adventure Club" #13, back when the Clown & Penguin were still trying to find/figure out what Omnichronus was, our heroes found themselves transported inside a strange, translucent cube that was covered in alien writing on all sides.  This was the word of Omnichronus that had somehow slipped though the barrier and had manifested in our reality. 

You see, Omnichronus is so big, so advanced, so beyond our comprehension, that his words are not just sounds passing through air, they are fully realized 3 Dimensional Monoliths that vibrate through spacetime for minutes or hours or days, depending on the importance. 

And yes, I am aware that not a single sentence in that entire diatribe made any sense at all.  It's Comix baby, it's the coolest.
