Marvin

In "Star Scout," Marvin wakes up stranded on an alien world after a crash, his only companion a wristwatch that drones on with survival tips—helpful, maybe, but far from the quiet he’d hoped for. Written by an unknown author and illustrated by an unknown artist, this two-page tale captures the quiet tension of isolation, where even the most useful tool can feel like a burden.
