In a recreation of the classic scene from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, a female child ducks into a closet during a game of hide-and-seek, only to discover a portal to a fantasy world called Narnia.
In a not-so-surprising-anymore twist, geek culture is injected into the classic plot-line when the young girl sends an unmanned probe (of her own making) into the portal instead of exploring it herself. In the last panel we see the probe “meeting” the faun Mr. Tumnus, a humorous contrast and combination of childhood memories with modern technology that is sure to delight the average reader.
