So, in an attempt to summarize all of the stuff we've been talking about in regards to the markings, I made a picture. It's pretty incomplete and I'm missing a bunch of information but it's a start!
There is a bit of crossover between the markings on Ink's hand and his head. Kinda makes me wonder why he'd bother with the same image multiple times unless there was some additional information in the repetition.
If there's anything I missed, please let me know (which is probably a lot).

I made the letters bigger, the hand picture is bigger and I found a few more symbols when I enlarged everything.
Edit #2: Here, I finally figured out how to add attachments. Derp.

Everytime one of them is like "Should we look a little further??" or "Keep Going???"..... I am just like "NOOOOOOO!!!!! RUN YOU FOOLS!!!!!"
:meh:
Regarding the Eye of Horus symbol...I remember reading something about it a few months back it and how it may actually have originated from a cross section of the brain. I just looked up again and found an illustration...

Recently, i've noticed more that each episode feels like it's recounting the events, in more a past tense, like someone is reading what happened from the logs. It's probably just because you write in past tense when writing something like that, but i'm not sure....
This is all i can think of....

That's really neat! My only hesitation in believing that is a few references that I've found to ancient Egyptians having no use for the brain at all. Other organs were thought to be important and were removed and stored in canopic jars. The brain, on the other hand, was removed through the nose with a hook and discarded.
