Strip 407 -- First Seen: 2010-03-30
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
Two-shot of Doris and Fiorella, facing off against the space navy squad.

Fiorella: I thought slug-throwers weren't allowed in SkyLand.

Doris: Well, our Darling avoided detection somehow.

Panel 2
Medium shot of Darling and his men. Darling is pointing the Beretta at the girls in what would be an isosceles stance if he could stand on something. His face is seething with hatred for the girls.
Darling: If it hadn't been for you two bitches, we would have stomped your little rebellion and Admiral Harris would be alive today.

Panel 3
Closer in on Darling. His expression has changed – all emotion seems to have gone, as he intones like a judge pronouncing sentence on the condemned.

Darling: For the life of Admiral Harris and the honor of the Navy, I hereby sentence you to death ...

Panel 4
Looking down along Darling's arms and gun at the girls, who are still dangling helplessly on the tether.
Darling: … execution to be carried out immediately.
