    I saw the Tyrannosaur first, and I though “wow, that planetxian monster sure looks Earth-like”. Then I read the word ballons

      We still haven’t seen any of the native predators. Who knows what they look like?

    Dinosaurs! Yes!!!!!!!

    Unfortunately, whenever your strip gets printed as a book one day, you’ll have to use 4-process color instead of 3 spot colors. At least on this entry. BA small price to pay for giving us dinosaurs!!!

      Dinosaurs are always fun.

      It would have to be four color process anyway. It would be far too much work to split the other comics up into spot colors.

    Your lettering kills me! Really adds so much to the feel of the strip. Yay for hand-lettering!

      Thanks, Sea Sick. I have to admit that it’s only MOSTLY hand lettered. I actually trace over a font to keep the spacing consistent. And it’s done on a computer where I can undo every screw-up. But that font is based on my own printing, so I guess it all counts, right?

      Thanks for checking out our humble little corner of the cosmos, varsha. If you haven’t checked already, there’s some more stuff under the Extra! Extra! button in the menu at the top. And thanks for the compliments!

    I think Ellie just found the best use for a holo-projector ever.
    What an unexpected result of her creativity!

      Nothing like using a holo-projector to scare the bajeezus out of alien life forms to build trust and friendship.
