Uhh, nice hat? Lol

Yes, it's floaty! ๐ฅฐ

Hey, this sort of captures my general malaise when going to work lately. Well done on that. Wonderful artwork too!
-
Thank you very much!
-
I like the style of this!
-
Thank you! I'll post more content soon.

Hey! At least it's not like they just finished washing the dishes.
Just Greek wedding those things and find a cool pose to get vaporized in.

Hard to tell how far away that is... fam might be vaporized but more likely to be wiped out by the blast I think? Still might be worthwhile to shut eyes, duck and cover, and start crawling to the basement or center of the house if possible.

If I see that, I'm going to run towards the blast.

Well bigger than their thumb for sure.
And do you really want to survive after a nuclear blast decimates the area and rains radiation down upon you?
When a nuke goes off I personally want to be as close to 0 I can be to it or on the opposite side of the planet. That's it.Likely they are in range of the sonic boom that will deafen them and shatter the house at best and the resulting vacuum would create a fire storm that sucks in, to a horrible inferno. If you see the blast it's too late for most things but never to late to shout:
Opa! And throw some plates. -

Heh. I touched on that topic two years earlier.

The attention to detail in this comic is pretty great, I like how you can see the blood vessels in his ears in the 3rd panel from the light of the nuclear blast
-
Thank you for noticing! I love to put in a detail or more than necessary to reward people who take their time to look at my stuff. also there's broccoli on the plates, shaped like the atomic explosion.

Same energy as this Key and Peele bit.

I agree. It's also interesting how the hair thing has a skull (see 2nd panel).
But there is of course room for improvement. If you look at the window for example, it has a nice normal modern handle, but it's blatantly missing the window sill and the hinges.

Person is now at a minimum temporarily blind (from looking at the blast).
They need to duck before the pressure wave throws broken glass at their face.
They are probably far enough away to survive temporarily, but perhap not long term depending on the payload.
The blast is white, not brown, indicating a state actor rather than a dirty bomb or terrorist attack.
The blast hit the ground, and so is not an airburst, this is a show of force rather than done to do maximum damage (suggests lower yield).
Get up, clear debris from yourself, grab food from fridge, move it to the center of the structure or place that was least impacted. Grab least dusty containers. Fill with as much tap water as you can, the water from any taps still working. For a short period of time tap water will still be viable because it's from the metal pipes underground and so probably not irradiated/contaminated.
Grab some clothing that can be sealed, a radio/torch, some tape and material to seal under doorways, and perhaps a deck of cards, games, or books.
Collapse in your sheltered area, this is where you stay for the next three days.
Radiation has a half life, your enemy is now the dust. Minimize contact with it by having "outside shelter clothing and "inside shelter" clothing. Keep the dust from going in your mouth/nose.
At first it won't matter too much but in the few days after the blast fall out will come, it will depend on wind/weather patterns. Avoid fall out.
Listen to the radio, if there is none, try to hold tight for at least a week. Help is coming, do not lose hope.
P.S Long term goals (after the first week), water catchment/distillation, and to try your car. The emp will likely have fried the fuses/battery, but it's worth a shot. If it's an older car it might even be worth replacing them and trying again.
If hope does not seem like it's on its way, extremely long term goals; digging for good soil (the top soil and dust will no longer be viable) for future crop planting.
Starvation, disease, and famine will be the next killers. Digging a few meters down and growing plants to munch on inside the house or another structure will be your best option. Hunting stray animals may also have to be done.
