'The End is Coming' - 3 Zits cartoons

Cartoonists and comedians can find humor in most things - including the end-times.
At the links below you can find three Zits cartoons about 'the end' and the Mayan calendar.
(Sorry, I can't reproduce them here without paying a fee.)

By the way, there isn't any evidence that the Mayans predicted anything bad would occur at the end of the cycle of their 'long-count' calendar. Most Mayan archaeo-astronomers say that the calendar was designed to reset to 0.0.0.0.0 after it reaches 13.0.0.0.0 --- others say it will continue to 20.0.0.0.0 (approximately 8000 AD) and then reset, without any problems.
