So, we’re moving, and I’m away for a almost three weeks, which means that I’ve spent the last couple weeks getting three weeks ahead on Spacetrawler plus packing everything we own.
I have been driving for a day a half, and should have been in Minneapolis but am still in North Dakota, hoping I arrive before sunrise.
Which is why it may be no surprise to hear that in my Spacetrawler mind I thought today was Tuesday. I was surprised to hear people were wondering where the strip was, and instead thought “can’t they wait til the usual time?”
Oops. Anyhow. Here it is. Colors will be added int he next coupe days. There SHOULDN’T be any more interruptions, although there shouldn’t have been any interruptions here. Le sigh.
Sleep will come when it may. But in the meantime…
Brutal.
Now I want some Campbell’s Chunky Beef Stew.
Well, he died happy, anyway.
Oddly enough, when I was reading my list of webcomics this morning, I also thought it was Tuesday (for some reason) and I didn’t think to check on Spacetrawler until just now. I am not moving and have no excuse for forgetting what day it was.
There are a couple of possible references to yesterday’s comments (“latex allergy” and “soup”). Are they actual references, or are we prescient?
a) why can he suddenly understand the bollyck w/o implant?
b) serves you right! the lack of sleep, i mean… that evens the score a little. i followed your advice about chasm city and will be missing a few hours of sleep, too, until i finish the series. great tip! thanks! 🙂
“If it’s Tuesday, you must be Belgian.” I’ve read this and heard this several places but I know not from where it comes.
Don’t worry, Chris. It was a holiday! You’re excused.
The Bollycks know English? Earth is Doomed!
And where are they going to get the soup from? Do Spacetrawlers take zap-gun remains?
Damn, I was hoping at least the angry goth chick would make it out. Oh well, guess we’re back to our original intrepid band of humans…
“If it’s Tuesday, you must be Belgian.”: “If It’s Tuesday, This Must Be Belgium”
Chances are that Bollycks use translation amplifiers, just like Norg-Forth. After all, they’re pirates, and they might want to make sure that they’re understood when they ask first and shoot questions later.
I can relate to that guy. Becoming a target for superior alien warriors is a situation where I wouldn’t want to be – or at least realize it.
Well, @Chris, just remember that driving time on those long blank stretches of interstate are perfect for taking naps. Just set your hands so the wheels are going straight, put your brain on standby, and you’re set. I used to be able to catch up on most of my sleep this way, going to work.
And if you’re not in the mood for sleep, you can use this time to catch up on your reading. Just be sure your book isn’t so big you can’t balance it in the steering wheel.
A few minutes of internet. Finally! Strip now colored. Oh, and I adjusted James’s final line, you are correct, he wouldn’t have understood the Bollyck, my mistake.
“CONvention” is as bizarre and fun as last year. Yay!
well, they didn’t last long…
so much for those humans: 07/04/12 – Soup Time http://t.co/zjafEQ1P

The poor fools. They think that by coming to Earth they will be able to have vengence. We’ll have lasers, spaceships and dissections of what’s left.
