Well, you've spelled "android" wrong, Keyop. And, it rather looks like you're shouting "Blood!" here instead of "Bloop!" That made me do a double take!


Well-spotted! I was just startin to write a comment on them using "blood" as a swear-word (it didn't cross my mind it could be "bloop"), but I totally missed the andriod bit...good thing Keyop's an android, not an ipad...

Don't forget they said Python. I don't even want to know where that is going.

If that really is the Golden Gate Bridge there, could the Phoenix be parked, I wonder, inside the Presidio? Would still be awfully careless of them, but at least they'd be inside a military facility.

Except that the Presidio is no longer an actual military base. Of course, Pluto is no longer a planet either...

And Python is now a computer-programming language and yes, they did take the name from Monty! Biglaugh1

ETA: and, of course, Androids are tablets...

Tablets that are more intelligent than Keyop...

I am not sure if they are more intelligent than Keyop but they are certainly more intelligible.

Something has been bothering me about all these pages. Is Zoltar in charge of each and every assault? Does he not have something better to do? As in, leading a whole terrorist syndicate, perhaps? One would think being the equivalent of a CEO, he had grunts for those missions, but apparently not. How many members does it have anyway? Twenty? Sousai didn't seem to me to be much into anything save for complaining, so who's in charge of planning (and finances, and administration, and PR...) then?Confused1

(inb4 1-Rover-1, who's had enough of Zark and joined the dark...uh...purple side. Just look at him in that panel. He looks like an angry zombie. I think it's that empty, blank eye.)

Ah, but it could be again in the future. I'm not positive, but if you watch closely for some of the few scenes of Star Fleet Headquarters in various Star Trek incarnations, it looks a lot like Star Fleet Headquarters is on the same site as the Presidio.

And who knows about Pluto, maybe in another 20 or so years, it might get it's planet status reinstated.

There are a lot of scientists who don't agree with the decision to remove Pluto's planet status, just because its a little bit different.

Just remembered...there's actually a Big Bang Theory ep on this!!!!!

Yes, Pluto should complain to the Committee for the extermination of discrimination among planetary bodies...

LOL! I actually have a book called "Why I killed Pluto and why it had it coming", by Mike Brown, who, I guess (haven't read it yet) is the guy responsible for the anguished cries of Sheldon in defence of Pluto.

Yes, he's the one! It's his discovery of the dwarf planet Eris that set things in motion to get Pluto kicked out of the planetary club. He reasoned that, if we define Pluto and Eris as "planets", then our solar system could have a few thousand planets, thanks to all the bodies in the Kuiper Belt. While I can see his point, I don't agree with the solution they chose.

Who would've thought that a scientific announcement would've led to such a passionate reaction!

Actually, in the Star-Trek-verse, it is commonly accepted that Starfleet Academy is located at the Presido, next to Starfleet Headquarters.
