I like a lot the kangaroo spacesuit!

“Where’s the POOM? What happened to the fleet-shattering POOM?”
“She targeted our only detonator and it… detonated.”
“The self-destruct unit was hit and blew itself up.”
That’s going to be a cramped ship for awhile.
Everybody friendly with each other?
I don’t understand. The ‘grasper-bombs’ disables her ship, and maybe she could shoot if they crossed right in front of her, but the 3rd panel shows her engines going as well. ???
@David B, goodness. My bad. I didn’t intend to imply that hers had been grasper-bombed. But now that you’ve said it, I see that it totally reads that way. I have added dialogue to the previous strip to fix it. Apologies.
I’m really glad you did that. I thought Emily’s ship had been grasper-bombed too.
That fixes the discrepancy.
So Choan had already found out about those and did something to disable them and Emily was just faking being shut down, wasn’t she?
@Scorpinac, see my comment above in reply to @David_B
Saw it, all cleared up.
If you secretly have the ability to disable your opponent, maybe you don’t tell them.
Quick thrust, quick parry. And so exit all the senior, elderly Stribs who were commanding the commandeered Strib fleet. So who’s in charge now? How long will the power struggles last, and who can be expected to survive, if anyone? Sounds like the right time to tell the combatants to land back on ‘Gentlekindness’ to sort it out… and dispose of the few who don’t go SMACKO into the shield.
Never give a sucker an even break. And the Stribs deserve a double faceful of their suckiness for their conduct to date.
