So remember, when you’re feeling very small and insecure,How amazingly unlikely is your birth;And pray that there’s intelligent life somewhere out in space,‘Cause there’s bugger all down here on Earth!
Seems to me the last panel should have been an unrelenting darkness. If there is no source of light beyond the universe, it would be nothing but darkness.
Our newspaper displayed the last panel with the wizard as the above strip depicts; however, the background isn’t blank but shows a black & white checkerboard …

My local paper’s version has a checkerboard pattern behind Wiz
It is the same on the Arcamax site, too. As well as creators.com scratching head

If you have ever wondered what it was like before our Universe came into existence, the last panel is it.

Maybe if you could step outside the universe, you’ll find it’s just a piece in a bigger universe.

Interesting that in my print version (Indianapolis Star) there is a checkered background.

“You are a fluke of the universe.
You have no right to be here.
And whether you can hear it or not,
The universe is laughing behind your back.”

I believe the latest theory is that there are multiple Universes! Of which ours is one.

The universe expands as light reaches and creates where it didn’t exist before. Once you can see it, it’s inside.

The one printed in my local paper had a checkerboard background in the last panel. It made no sense to me.
