1 Me: {looking at computer} Oh. My. God. More emails about Coruscant. "Star Wars is clearly unrealistic anyway, what's your problem?"
2 Me: "It's not Lucas' fault; Asimov started it with Trantor." "I see a way to cool it down using the Time Cube!"
3 Me: {reading a physics textbook} The three Laws of Thermodynamics can be paraphrased: "You can't win. You can't break even. You can't get out of the game."
4 Me: Who ever thought they also applied to making comics about Coruscant?

On the Laws of Thermodynamics:
These are physical laws that govern the transfer of energy. They can be explained in simple terms thus:
Anyone who has studied physics at university, by the way, might recognise an early edition of the venerable Resnick and Halliday (or Halliday and Resnick as I believe they are these days) textbook. Yep, I studied this stuff that long ago.
And if you keep reading this comic long enough, you won't need to study physics. You'll learn it all right here. And have a heck of a lot more fun than I did studying thermodynamics, let me tell you.
That write-up also introduced:
This makes the four laws of thermodynamics:
