Strip 457 -- First Seen: 2010-06-08
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
Tall panel. We are looking down through the window, past Sajjan and Robyn (we can see tops of their heads in the lower part of the panel). We can also see the base of the tower, and some area around it. The are dozens of emergency vehicles with flashing lights and scores of moon-suited figures milling about.

Sajjan: My guess is that most of the bigwigs are suited up and staying out of the Tower until they are assured the damn thing isn't going to fall over, explode or something.

Panel 2
Reverse angle,looking up at Sajjan and Robyn – Sajjan is still looking down, Robyn is glancing up at Sajjan with a mischievous grin.

Sajjan: Man, it's chaos out there.

Robyn: Care to take a stroll?

Panel 3
Robyn has taken Sajjan by the elbow and is leading him back along the corridor.

Robyn: The area is swarming with dozens, maybe hundreds of people.

Robyn: Nobody will notice a couple of extra people in moon suits.

Panel 4
Robyn and Sajjan standing next to the elevator door.

Robyn: Shall we risk a power outage, or walk down 496 floors?

Sajjan: If we get stuck, I'll just rip the doors off the elevator.
