Ah, I've seen this once or twice.
The "Biologist" one was really brilliant.

I especially enjoyed the comics that touched on topics like the scientific method and evolution, as they are important concepts that can sometimes be misunderstood or misrepresented.

Some of my personal favorites from the list provided include "The Scientific Method," "Evolution," and "The Universe is a Simulation." I also appreciate the use of humor in these comics, as it can often help to make complex ideas more digestible.
