I can see three possible interpretations: A) "In what time does Molly's father exist?" ("Where in the future is the father?") B) "Where in the future, geographically, is Molly's father?" ("Where is the father in the future?") C) "Why is Molly's father not in the strip?" ("Where is the future father?") Answers: A) He was born around the same time that the mother, Linda, was born, and will probably die some time in the future. However, there have been hints in my strips that people live forever in the future, so he might not die at all. In that case, he exists forever, starting from his birth. B) He might be on Earth, or an Earth colony. He might also be participating in HS2 (high stakes, high speed) sports on the Frontier. (Counted from the point in time when Molly, the daughter, travelled back in time to meet her mother.) C) He's not in the strip because his identity is a secret, for the reasons that Molly has already explained in the strip. Also, the father is a secret for gag value. If he were there and Linda learned his identity, it would kinda ruin the strip. Besides, Molly's a grown girl. She doesn't need her daddy to run around and babysit her for basic stuff like time travel. If he is indeed on the Frontier, then he's probably busy managing his HS2 team and lobbying for more lenient HS2 laws in the Core Worlds. I hope you're more confused now. :) (I need to either write a book, make a game or shoot a film about some of my sci-fi ideas. Or all three.) -- OO Joaquim G�ndara .||. http://www.Nerd-Boy.net bb jg
