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

Author's comment:

Some Alliance suits utilize metamaterials in the seams, allowing them to separate and reconnect with molecular precision at the signal from the microprocessor. This allows a quickened process of putting the suits on, and to quickly and safely dismantle a part of the suit in case of emergency, like in this situation. The suit then basically falls apart around the wearer.

Oh god, it's the last page I'll be forced to draw out the entirety of Gharr's spacesuit! Finally!

Not bad, more of a fan of 'intelliwear'/'smart clothing' style suits myself.

TRIVIA
Before becoming a webcomic, Leaving The Cradle was initially developed as a modification for Source engine, back in 2007. It was vastly different back then, much closer to the usual space opera look and feel, and the plot had nothing in common with the webcomic version, sharing only one character.
