What Comes Next

The war is over, but This Means War has a ways to go. Novo Paolo/Bubbleopolis is still in a nebula/stellar nursery, no one knows what happened to the planet Sharen (center of the Intergalactic Council), and the status of the now-surrendered Invaders is yet to be resolved. What will they do when they learn their homeworld is basically destroyed? Will Alyss and Li be re-united? How about Diana (the real one) and Otto?

These questions will be resolved in the next few weeks, before This Means War part 3 wraps in late May.

After that, I plan to go BACK in time about 400 years, to when Alyss and Li left their home in the Sol System to colonize a new world on the far side of the galaxy. As one might expect, hijinks ensue. New subtitle yet to be determined, start date sometime in around the start of July. Stay tuned!

The Transcript For This Page

Panel 1
Same scene, same shot as yesterday. Caillard is trying to explain himself.

Caillard: Actually, Mr. High Commissioner, I have checked the figures, and 80 million Continentals is a conservative estimate of what they might legally claim.

Panel 2
Same scene HC is pulling a different sheaf of papers out of the pile, the Treaty.
Caillard: But the good news is, they’ll waive all claims if our government signs the attached Treaty of Mutual Indifference.

Panel 3
Same shot. HC is holding the treaty but looking levelly at Caillard.

HC: All the expense to send you there, you LOST Agent Stellina, and you didn’t get ANYTHING out of them?

Panel 4
Same shot. Caillard is holding the opened gift box he got from Reggie, displaying the banner. HC and the Chief’s eyes are widening.

Caillard: Well, the King gave me this honorary pennant.
