Next Time on The Xavier Media Comic:

The recovered systems expose an old device, a hidden connection, and another protocol that should probably have stayed offline.

When Atlantis' ancient infrastructure collapses under a rogue AI, the gang dives deep - literally. With dolphin traffic in chaos and antivirus licenses last renewed in 2004, only one thing can save the Atlantean systems: Bylla's water-cooled Amiga 1200 running BubbleDOS. But as ASCII sharks bite and backup floppies mount, a forgotten villain resurfaces: The Lost Ping.
