My sister was the one who came up with the title. Yes, I know, kinda geeky but I like these kind of things. I'm the kind of person who'll watch NOVA on a whim when I'm bored XD.

Also, stars can only create up to iron in their lifespans. Once they supernova, then elements heavier than iron are created ^_^

Even though the last fact is true, it's not for the Sun. Unlike some larger stars like Betelguese, VY Canis Majoris, and Sirius A, our Sun will not turn into a supernova. As the core of the Sun turns into iron, the Sun will no longer able to produce heavier elements. But, instead of turning into a supernova, the Sun will instead swell up to about the orbit of Earth (approx. 300 mil km) and then sheds it's outer "skin". Eventually, the Sun will turn into a white dwarf and form a planetary nebula around it as it starts to die.

So... no. The Sun can't do alchemy. The heavier metals like Ag, Au, and Pb came from other supernovae that had possibly triggered the formation of the Solar System, 4.5 billion years ago.

BUT, my explanation above doesn't stop me from clicking the "Add to Favourites" button up there! Good job, I love this comic!

Well...he can still make some elements. Just not...heavy ones...^^;

Yeah, of course...

But it'll take some time. By the time the Sun had made those heavier elements, we'll be toasted. Literally.
