Strip 132 -- First Seen: 2009-03-17
Escape From Terra is updated with new pages every Monday through Friday.

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
Looking at the screen again. The newscaster is now in the lower right corner of the screen as Admiral Harris appears in an inset screen over the newscaster's shoulder. The inset screen will have the label, 'Recorded earlier.'

At the bottom of the entire screen is the UWN logo again, and the text in the banner reads 'Admiral Arthur Harris, UWSN'

Harris (on screen): We will not allow these murderers to go unpunished. If they have hurt one hair on Agent Caillard's head there will be hell to pay.

Panel 2
Guy reaction shot. Now his incredulity is morphing into disgusted indignation.

Newscaster (off screen): To which we here at the UWN say, 'Godspeed, Admiral Harris.'

Newscaster (2): Stay tuned for further developments.

Panel 3
Guy is frozen in his chair, a moment of indecision. He looks like he wants to jump out of his chair in five directions at once and can't decide which way to go.

Guy: Nnnnnnngh!!!


Panel 4
Guy finally picks a direction, and in a comical repeat of his first step on Ceres, bounces himself up to collide with the ceiling.

Guy: Reggie! I must …

SFX: KLONK

Guy: Merde!
