The Treasure Hunt
Posted by snowleopard on February 20, 2012 · 8 Comments
The second comic I made at the Comic Con. The same doodles have been used. Again the concept is a bit dark. The theme is based around the Latin phrase “Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?” which roughly translates to “Who will guard the guardians” or “Who will guard the guards”.
P.S. Apologies for the bad scanning

Aiyo! Now it all makes sense! I like!
Is that Laura Croft in the distance?
I just drew the eyes. The rest is your imagination.
So who guards the Guardians?
No one. It is an infinite loop. Greed takes over each time
????
Well…the concept is. A man finds treasure, goes to claim it. The guard kills him but becomes greedy and now wants it for himself. Another guard see the original guard.
The phrase in the end meant that this guard will beat him and then greed will take over him too…..and it continues forever, while the treasure remains there, untouched.
