Phoebus Krumm is updated with new pages every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

The Transcript For This Page

PANEL ONE (upper lefthand quarter of page) is actually sort of an
overlay. The rest of the page (and presumably whatever is under the
overlay) is all one panel.

As bent-over heads surround it, the iris closes with another final
sound.

SFX (iris): 'ClacK!'

----------------------------------------------------------------------

PANEL TWO (the rest of the page)

The stern and some of the hull of _Resplendent Quetzal_ sticks up
into the panel from the lower left. Drifting away is the space
elevator, trailing a hundred wiggly feet or so of cabelle.

Notably, there are also four or five steam launches adrift, not
under power, tumbling every whichway.

Arran (from the liftdeck): 'We smashed the launch engines. Don't
worry, Bretta, they'll be all right until someone comes back to rescue
them.'
