What Comes Next

The War is Over. We Won.

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
Group shot of our heroes sitting around the coffee table. Focus is on Bert, who is speaking. Drenkowski is sitting somewhere to the right of Bert. Arana is close to his left side.
Bert: Okay, let's recap:
Bert: Mac, Nisa, Ernie and I will be transported to the Groom Lake facility by Commander Drenkowski in his almost-invisible spaceplane.
Drenkowski: The Free Bird.

Panel 2
Closer shot on Bert, angled so we can also see a smiling Arana.
Bert: Yeah, great name suggestion, Arana.
Bert: The Commander will keep the motor running, while the rest of us go in to get Neanne and Nowra.

Panel 3
Medium close-up on Bert.
Bert: The rest of Nowra's family were shipped home a couple of decadays ago.
Bert: That simplifies things, but it also tells us we may not have a lot of time.

Panel 4
High angle shot of the whole group again, Bert gesturing as he speaks.
Bert: Ernie and I will act as lookouts and provide suppressing fire – but only as a last resort.
Bert: We want to waltz in and out with nobody being the wiser.

Panel 5
Shot including Tobi, flanked by Nisa and Mac, listening to Bert.
Bert (OP): Nisa and Mac will go in and locate Neanne and Nowra, and escort them out.
Bert (OP): We'll comm Nowra when we land so they'll be ready.

Panel 6
Final group shot, lower angle, focus on Bert. Some of the characters will have to have their backs to us.
Bert: Ernie and I will cover the rear, then Drenkowski will fly us out.
Bert: Easy peasy, lemon-squeezy.
