And, things continue to get worse for our intrepid heroes. But, I have to give kudos to Beryl. In spite of the incoming enemy, the increasingly dire combat situation, and the fact that she and Alex really should make their way to a couple of crash seats, she just refuses to relinquish her spot on A...

woah, not much heads up before the new page. I like it though

well not everyone has the same foot size #nonmetricisdumb

I don't see why not. just look at humans. piss poor predator without tools. no claws, no jaws. probably was preyed upon by other predators

unsure why, but I imagine Tempo and Spiral to have Russian/Slavic accents

The article on Psychokinesis does discuss this subject a bit, if you haven't already seen it. http://well-of-souls.com/outsider/forum_psychokinesis.html hmmmm, I must have missed or overlooked this part when I first read: "....A variety of side effects can result from amplification, again varying b...

It wouldn't be Civ if ...... Ghandi didn't nuke everything, ...... :P "In the original Civilization, it was because of a bug. Each leader in the game had an “aggression” rating, and Gandhi - to best reflect his real-world persona - was given the lowest score possible, a 1, so low that he’d rarely i...

You are all overanalyzing the presence of all the characters that we have seen all in the shuttle. There is a simple out of universe explanation. you dont create new characters in a story when an old character can do the same job. Especially for a comic where you have to design them instead of just...

I've had that feeling, overall, too; what in that particular panel seems to tip you off, though? I don't quite see what you're getting at. CJSF It appears that Tempo is casting an accusatory look toward the Historian ambassador when she says "Green". and his response is very deflective. I'm guessin...

i've been thinking this since #60, panel 3 (EDIT: I mean panel 4)

Space Rifles and humans in personal combat will always be used as long as this basic military maxim is in effect: Nothing is secure without boots on the ground. In short, without a reliable martial presence to oversee and deny access no location is considered 'secure' by military thinkers. This mos...

[Computers are designed to be externally controlled, so hacking one can be as simple as providing the correct codes. There is no analogue to this kind of basic vulnerability in human brains (so far as we know). https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/98/f5/f8/98f5f81a11866ec8d7d2cf3c543759c6...

It's easy to interpret Beryl's reaction as one of jealousy (and that misinterpretation is, of course, a deliberate storytelling device on my part), but that's not really what's going on. Beryl is being protective; Alex is her responsibility, and he has been mistreated by other Loroi in the recent p...

yup. I wouldn't fist bump a stranger

and any kind of greeting can be misinterpreted if different cultures are involved

When it comes to human greetings, an open hand is a common theme throughout. Whether it is waving, shaking hands, saluting, high fiving, it is important to show the hand not clenched in anger.

there are exceptions.....
