Ok but why do they look like termites?Insects don't see things split up like that. It's integrated in their mind.
But you could talk to the ants at last. (or at least understand what they were going on about... you'd need pheromones to really fully communicate. ) That would be wonderful.

Ok but why do they look like termites?How is this body horror?

@weirdestateI like the yellow fan and teal ceiling.
Too many patterns but that can be fixed. The rest of the house is a little shabby and I think they fixed it up rather well.
In fact. I might copy that ceiling. It's so cheerful.

Ok but why do they look like termites?It did mention "red kryptonite" I don't know much about that...

@apophisThey may have been looking at images of "insect colonies" for ideas.
Most people don't see that this is like trying to draw a cow and making something that looks like a giant dog instead.

Ok but why do they look like termites?The summary made it sound more nuanced. Superman takes on the ant traits of his own free will to communicate with them and they have come to earth with "an important message" so... not all hope is lost. It might be fun.

If you are a comic book artist and need to draw ants but don't have a reference image, you can use a wasp.If you are a comic book artist and need to draw ants but don't have a reference image, you can use a wasp. Just leave off the wings. It'll be close enough.
(Although ants have hinged antennae and only some wasps have this feature... but for the body it's OK in a general way. )

Ok but why do they look like termites?Well I'm going to find a way to read this. These ants better not be a metaphor for COMMUNISM.

Ok but why do they look like termites?Mantises, termites and roaches are all in the same family. So that makes sense.

Ok but why do they look like termites?Ok but why do they look like termites? I swear to god "golden age" comic artists have never really looked at an ant.
Their legs aren't that bad, though...

As soon as you can verify that life has started more than one time in a single solar system (and we aren't near that really, but there is something worth looking into again) that means it's probably in many solar systems and BOOM you have to presume th...This is a process that orbits the ant form without ever being able to reach it.

They will arrive and study us I'm certain. "What a curious planet" they will say.

Provisionally excited about the mars mold*That is probably more sensible. But I want there to be bacterial on everything.
Because then we can assume space ants are real, right?
-
Provisionally excited about the mars mold*If it's not the same that means there is bacteria on EVERYTHING basically.
Sadly I don't think we can know unless we send a way to test it up there OR find a way to bring it back.

Provisionally excited about the mars mold*eeeeee what if someday they get a dollop and sequence it and it's not related to anything on earth eeee what if that happened

*or rather bacterial patch candidate, or possible strange geology weathering as not yet cataloged... which is almost as exciting as bacteria.

In which our intrepid photographer narrowly escaped being murdered by driver ants in Kibale Forest, Uganda.She just wanted to give you a special hug to help you understand that you shouldn't get too close to their highway.

"And it was called 'the nameless horror'"I blame Bertrand Russel.
