That’s all the secondaries’s epilogues. Did I forget anyone crucial? (after this there are 6 more strips, btw, 4 wrapping things up, 1 epilogue, and 1 prologue of me)
So, the Kickstarter is over. Thank you, my readers, for all your support. There is no way I could have printed it without you, and then you surpassed that. Thank you. Again and again.
AAANNNNNDDDD it means you get three more months of Spacetrawler! I have already begun writing the story I’ll use for it, and am having fun. π
AANNNNDD AALLLLSSOOO, many of you have already told me that you missed the Kickstarter, and others that they wanted different combinations of goods, and you want to still get it. Well, I’ve opened up a stripped-downΒ temporary store PURELY for pre-sales between now and when the book is shipped. For books #1 & #2 I have only added them as “doodled” versions. If you wish the straight-up books, please visit my TopatoCo page.
Visit the “Book #3” store HERE.
Not much else new. Sunday, we went canoeing. For lunch, we brought pancakes! How fun is that?
Well, yes.
What happens to all the humans besides Martina?
Do they stay in space or return to Earth? Yuri is a particularly special case.
And Pierrot and Emily who were *dead* but got jolted back by a medi-bot.
And the bar-bot head that Dustin kept dragging around, was it ever reconnected with the rest of its body (perhaps turned into a garment selling bot, so that it could be asked if “purple velveteen underwear is the best?”) ?
Yay! Just deserts for Norg-Forth! Thanks for clearing that up π
Shouldn’t the non telekinetic eebs be of a different color?
Brekt’s pretty wise, could use with another dose of creative revirtualisation of the whole strip through her viewpoint …
…I really hope the apparently inherent sociopathic tendencies have been engineered out. Or was that a matter of Eeb culture and not genetics?
Great! Three more months of Spacetrawler!
At first I thought the fifth panel said their telekinesis would return, because that’s what I would expect. Is brain-clamping inheritable?
(The galaxy better hope it is, otherwise they’ll have a planet full of full-powered eebs in a few generations.)
Red-9?
Coyoty, they grew some non-telekinetic eebs using human dna.

Uh…being married to someone means that you’re that person’s *possession*?
Unless that’s just a local law on Planet Whatever, sounds like Interplanetary Amity was sort of missing the forest for the trees. OSLT.
@VincentG, ah, those will be covered. By “the secondaries” I mean, I’ve tackled everyone but the 6 humans. Although I did forget about the bar-bot. Hm. Maybe I can sneak him in somewhere.
@Zorglub, they should! Thanks for catching that. I’l fix it today!
@TomasG, I actually considered putting Brekt in with Brother Furn, but as much as she was an interesting viewpoint, she didn’t really have a story to epilogue. π
@Evil Midnight Lurker, I thought of them as omnipotent drunken pranksters, which obviously easily got out of hand. Now they are just drunken pranksters, which will mostly end in the occasional black eye or broken toe.
@Nemo, good catch! Yes, I have plans for Red-9. π
@Ronal, only by Bollyck law, which is as nasty as them. π
The more straightforward equivalent of the Eeb’s pickup linewould be “Wanna let me get you pregnant?” I seriously doubt that that’s ever been effective with any female of ANY species.*
Of course, the exchange could have been even more awkward if it had ended, “We’re the same gender, you moron, we CAN’T reproduce.”
(unless Eeb physiology has diverged way, WAY in another direction from human physiology, of course)
===
*It seems safe to presume that’s a male trying to get a female pregnant and not a female trying to get a male to GET her pregnant. Looking back on thousands of years of human history, I similarly doubt that there’s ever been a culture in which it was difficult for random women to persuade random men to have sex with them, and there seems no obvious reason to believe it should be any different in any other species.
I remember Norg-Forth’s name but not his story. Character page only links to today’s comic. Can someone remind me of, or point me to, a helpful Norg-Forth strip?
Oh. Duh. Sorry.
Would have liked to see Brekt running around cheering that he was right all along, to the stunned stares of Brother Furn.
Also, did I miss what happened to the Potty-bot in the end?
Brekt was part right, there was a secret society but in the end it didn’t matter…
Also, what happened to the therapy-bot? Last I remember it was on the Star Banger.
So…… Is there any way we can start a kickstarter that will help you CONTINUE this series beyond just the next three months? Because this whole world is absolutely incredible, and I’m incredibly sad to see it go!!!!!
Mannnn, I forgot about ALL the bots!
@Sara_F, sorry, no. I’m excited trying new things, and 4 years was already a long commitment! Not to say that I might not come back to it, ya never know (although I’d also say, not to hold your breath). π
I like the Eebs priorities! Breweries first, worry about everything else later.
Wait, Nogg and Choan were an item? *flips through archives* ooooh. I never gave that little talk by the window much weight
Also, don’t mess with Bollyck law! (Bollycks law?)
“Oh darling juicy sugar lumps…” π
what about eebongbong? why can’t the eebs return to their own planet?
Ooh, and also there’s a planet out there that mostly has a bunch of Ditherkers and what’s left of Qwahntoo’s corpse.
@Some_Guy & @Wei-Hwa_Huang, Hm, it’s true, there may have been better options. But, Dimitri created the colony there because it was where he was, and also was on a now unwanted planet, and it kinda’ stuck I guess.
Panel 6 should probably say “Although that might take _a_ while”, instead of “Although that might take while”.
