Chapter 42-3 Chasing Ghosts

[YetAnotherBloodyCheek]

Well, I guess that regarding all this head tattooes voodoo, Ink could kick himself for not using a tablet computer when it comes to chemical experiments:



Oh, too bad the zombicalypse already started in 2009 when there had not been any good tablets on the market.

Yea, funny the way stuff works like that. That tablet is way better and cooler than that tricorder Spock had to use... Lol

If you figure out the three x line- thing your doing waaaaaaay better than me! That one has my mind blown

I've found a few things that show it could mean summer.

And just as I finish putting that up, there are others that say they could be stars. If we assume they are stars, could it be a constellation on his head?

[UndeadSweeper]

The bigger chemical on his head could be classified as a tricyclic. The problem is that these structures are very similar and just a minor change can mean something totally different and there are lots and lots of different types. These are drugs that can be antidepressants, anti-psychotic or even more mundane anti-histamine, etc.. It might be possible to decipher it perfectly, but we also know that there is some liberty when it comes to the artwork of the show.

I think it is more important to realize that it is a mix of real chemistry, alchemy, voodoo, hieroglyphs, eastern Asian etc.

Huh? 'These are drugs that can be antidepressants, anti-psychotic,' was Ink on those ?

OK, how about this....

Let's convince a few of the cast to get some sharpies and pin KC down, draw the correct symbols on him in the correct spots, and then take pictures....

You know....for research purposes...

How much can you pay me to make this happen? I have 24 hour access.

The symbol used for sulphur is the cross with the triangle. I was wondering if maybe it was part of the gas that was released at the cracks, too. Then again, here's a little glitch: phosphorus and sulphur have very similar alchemical symbols. Phosphorus has the triangle on the bottom and the cross coming out of the top. Sulphur is reversed with a triangle on top an cross on the bottom. If we go with Ink's tattoos as shown it's sulphur but in the episode they didn't specify where the triangle was.

Well, he says 'a cross with a triangle ON it', so I'd guess it's above the cross... I'd have called it a triangle with a cross on it if it had been Phosphorus.

ME? Pay? LOL.

The only thing I have in my wallet is stains from my tears.

As a side note... don't expect to find the fish on fire or the rainbow-fan one from this angle.

Must. Have. Fire Fish!!!

Considering Ink had all of this tattooed on him when he was human, this is looking like one hell of a road-map to the zombie-pocalypse. (I'm taking your comment to mean that ALL of the symbols are on Ink somwhere.) It clearly seems like he's responsible but I've got to wonder who he was working with. Given he was in prison (presumably by design) when the SHTF, would he have an accomplish? If this has been discussed, please let me know and I'll go satisfy my theories over there. Thanks!
