Latest blog post: How the comic is made (2025-12-26)

Author's comment:

Offworld trucks are a very popular choice in the Alliance colonies and exploration teams for their robustness and high adaptability to a wide range of environments and gravities. They're easily modifiable to act as anything between a simple cargo truck and a sophisticated mobile science lab, can operate via autopilot, and generally don't know what "impassable terrain" means.

Another vehicle full of raharrs approaches mysterious, possibly-hostile strangers in Sol System. Hopefully it goes better than last time.

They clearly haven't tried to drive one of these things on the road besides my house, more pot-hole than road...

Then you need to put identical tires on your car! Also a ladder in the door.

And..."Simple as that" ? Now we all know how that pans out. They jinxed it!

Don't forget to first choose your base vehicle so as to exceed the size of the potholes ...

TRIVIA
Insectoids in a lot of ways are the weird ones among the Alliance members. Besides having a completely unpronounceable name of the species, they have dextero amino acid biochemistry, which makes their food and biosphere to be inedible by the rest of the Alliance, and vice versa.
