Will Dabney Flagg’s words of wisdom go down in history with other immortal phrases used to send a group of people forth to do Their Best, phrases such as – “Good Hunting”, “Be Careful Out There”, or “Let’s Win One for the Gipper”.
Only time will tell. Perhaps “We who are about to die salute you would be better.”
But, hey… you’re probably not worried about what Dabney’s saying right now, are you? You’re probably much more intersted in that pile of digger parts next to the grease barrel. I could have sworn I saw something else there not so long ago… Well, I’ll be… hmm.
Security Agent Captain Cassandra Quinn is on assignment to the mining outpost Luna Seven amid rumors of pirates near the outpost. On her approach to the complex, she saw something moving around on the surface of the moon that shouldn’t have been. During her attempts to verify her visual sighting, a mysterious ship blasted her out of the sky. Her story starts HERE.
Meanwhile, miner Simon Tripline is waking up and getting ready for his day while the morning news talks of Terraluna Universal’s plans to project their logo onto the moon, which has drawn protests. The news also mentions rumors of piracy surrounding the disappearance of a shipment of ore from Luna Seven. As Simon walks to work, he sees something strange through a porthole. Did he really see it? Or were his eyes playing tricks on him?
Nothing like a bit of coffee to clear the senses, but even that brings an irritant in the form of Vin Sinclair, who is evidently one of Luna Seven’s top performers on the drill. But is there a dark secret to his success? Simon’s story starts HERE.

WHAT?
You really are a “tricksterer”.
Yeah, great – the ol’ did I see what I really thought I saw trick! Or maybe – the being is a shapeshifter…eh? eh?
WTF GEARS I KNOW WHAT I SAW.
“Rip some rock”, yeah that is a good one. Reminds me of “push some dirt”, but is a whole lot snappier, and more relevant without a bulldozer….
I was concerned if maybe the powdery substance he touched, in a previous panel, may have caused a hallucination, but I notice that he was wearing gloves, and I don’t expect it could’ve been anything super-potently hallucinogenic.
Hmm, sounds like space-gremilins!
Ooh, spooky, the best way to kick off the beginning of october, especially with halloween right around the corner.
Go Oggy! It is getting great.
PS: Loved interview on 365 Days of Astronomy plus longer version on Process site.
Sean, that is no gremlin. Gremlins are malevolent. That guy is friendly. I can see it in his eyes.
