If that's what things really look like there, are we looking for a few cartoon characters with a metal cube?

Somebody mentioned how the use of cartoons was inconsistant with the Ceretin ad, however my 2c are that there may be some laws restricting photography in the press.

OOG, it's probably just to keep it 'mysterious' and uncertain of who the people really are.

I propse a theory on the topic of the cartoons.

if everyone and everything is in-game -- because, lest we fForget, this is not a game -- then to show photos of people fFrom the perplex city world would require taking an *actual* photo of them. Not a photo of an actor playing the part of them. them. in the fFlesh. the honest to god image of the people. Like dinah. remember dinah? some people walked up and shook her hand. that was dinah. I've seen a picture or two of adrain hon as well. everyone we are reading about is real.

except, some of them are characters in a story. so taking a photo violates simple physics. but we .. we .. we really really need photos of these people. sooo, ok, so we have some paintings. they are real live paintings of real live people who really exist.

Just suppose their world is 2-dimensional....

maybe that is why the cube is such an object of reverence.....
