It's a shame that the crash wasn't witnessed by a science fiction fan, though of course such a fan would have been less likely to assume the military was looking to start an interstellar war.

There there. A little performance anxiety during your first first-contact procedure is nothing to be ashamed about.

The author is against any kind of application of AI to his artwork.

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.
