    I’ve played an enormous amount of post apocalyptic simulations and video games, so I’ve got some insight on how this typically goes:

    The bunkers with beans and guns are rare, but usually whoever is inside died of something really common, like an infection, broken leg or a stroke, and was unable to get medical aid in time.

    There’s also loot boxes/caches in the woods where you see someone tried to be completely solo and typically “having weapons” is way less valuable than knowing how to use them

    The OG meme is right, you need other people in “the apocalypse”, going it alone is a death sentence, even basic things can become enormously difficult (many hands make for light work)

    Make sure at least one of the people you know is a doctor, surgeon, or nurse of some kind

    And if the “guns-people” ever band together (band-its) and try to take stuff away, they typically don’t have coordinated field tactics or military discipline, it’s a slog but battling the cannibals with a regular army does eventually result in their extinction

    But the bard’s song will remain 🎵

    Cool comic, but to answer this question honestly, I technically don’t have “enemies”, if at all possible in my power, I avoid conflict until it’s unavoidable.

    The few times that the situation has occurred in the comic, it’s always been terrible, and you’re missing the injuries of the protagonist as well: one man dies on the field, the other dies in the field hospital.
