All right, here it is, the first "stick figure" issue of ad astra. Go ahead, savage it...
BTW I realized it was all blurry in closeup, and most of me detail became invisible, so I'm giving a link to the url, where hopefully it'll be clearer.

EDIT: corrected size issue, try reading details now.

:D

Shouldn't the positions be reversed though ?

"Drinking from the toilet ?" :oo:

AAAVAS (Ad Astra Advanced Vehicle Assembly System), pg162 paragraph #2: "At Tech Level 10, Vargr can no longer drink from the toilets in spacecraft."

;)
 
try reading it now (Or, in some cases getting someone to read it to you now) that the size issue is fixed and you can read the details...
 
Having two beagles who, no matter what I do or say, my wife insists that they can sleep on the bed at night, I can totally relate to this one.

And your figures will get better with practice. You should see some of Gary Trudeau's early work. It will give you hope.

Thanks, pen, now I need to work on sizing, the current images are waay too big, I was using the default setting on inkscqape, which is too big for webcomics...

Did you read tyhe details? "Vargr sasoon" I should have added "If you don't smell good, we don't smell good."
 
I'm plotting the third thrilling issue of Ad Astra that will deal with the difficulties of being a vargr among humans, and I'm going to make some changes:

The resolution is way to frakking high as is, it's like 4x the size of an OOTS webcomic, for cleon's sake! ;)

I'm going to switch res modes to one suited to a monitor screen, say 1024 width since AA is meant o be read on a screen and, hey, I'm not rich berlew, no one's ever gonna print these in books so chumps can pay money for them...

One thing I'm thinking of is mentioning that a vargr on a human ship has to vacuum herself every day because human ships air systems aren't made to deal with that much hair, unlike vargr ships.

As a side issue, I was thinking of some issues involving the fact vargr often refer to humans as "stinks" and why this may be so. (Let's just say the vargr on the AA has a special version of the "jump clock countdown" she uses to tell when a jump is about to end. ;)
