I am impressed by your knowledge of the comics ecosystem
/edit : Added the joke icon - I know about nordic mythology and not mistaking it for marvel.

My comics ecosystem was the Beano and old copies of Superman comics from the second hand book shop when I was a kid!
Oh, and 2000AD when that came out: "Y'know a kiss on the hand might be quite continental, man. But tactical thermonuclear weaponry is a guys best friend."

Dennis and Gnasher were in the Beano! (And the Bash St Kids, Roger the Dodger, Billy Whizz, ...)
The Dandy had Desperate Dan!

I see no Norse Gods around (other than Vidar, Vali, Baldur, Hodr, Modi, and Magni - and they emigrated to Florida, I think) so it's entirely possible!

It's here and it's Zig (ZigLang[^]).
If you didn't like Go and you hated Rust well, you're going to detest Zig.
But the dealio is that you can play this nice game in your browser all thanks to Zig (Oxid[^]).
Based Upon, which Was Based Upon...which was...
Oxid is an arcade-style game where you fight waves of monsters in a fixed-screen maze. This is more or less a clone of Verminian Trap (2013, Locomalito). Verminian Trap was originally inspired by Wizard of Wor (1980, Midway).
So, get your loathing powers fired up and start loathing Zig today.

Looks good! 
I almost want to try it out, and be the zag to your zig!

Man, that brings back memories! First played it on my first PC (which I learned to program on), the venerable C64.
Quote: If you didn't like Go and you hated Rust well, you're going to detest Zig.
There's a few nice new languages that aim for simplicity (See also: Nim), but more and more I'm starting to think that Rust shouldn't be on any list of new languages that include Zig or Go.
Those are languages that aim to simplify programming; Rust resembles line-noise and looks more like Perl in some cases than anything else. We all know what happened to Perl.

C64!! I had a C128 but always ran it in C64 mode anyways.

It became one of the most popular language of all time so far and got to be so ubiquitous that no one notices it any more?

it's cute and as someone who has written programming languages and multiple compilers in my career, I have to give kudos to its attempt to do something about error processing which is pretty much overlooked by everyone because...well... it's hard.

The only problem I have with Darwinism is that it doesn't work fast enough so we are stuck with millions of idiots we can't get rid of!
Note: This post may seem to be political (and therefore verboten) but it isn't meant to be; just a sad reflection on the human race today.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Darwinism does not work any more. It's predicated on the weak dying but in a civilised society, that does not happen

civilised is way too nice for our society.
