    Well, that was… unsurprising.

    Oops, Panel 4. Bearded guy: Undersand -> Understand.

    Conniving lying bastards! She should try talking with the locals before planting that flag. Does she understand what planting a flag means? Mind you, it might mean something else entirely for alien cultures.

      “Oops, Panel 4. Bearded guy: Undersand -> Understand.”

      I think you mean Undersand -> Underhand.

        Nope, I’m pretty sure it’s ‘Understand’.

          Pretty sure it was a joke.

    And people wonder why we hate politicians.

    Why do I get the feeling the war is over something petty like, oh, a card game?

      While that would be funny, that isn’t usually the direction that PS238 takes. (It would be a typical plot in Nodwick though.)

      Dax-Ra isn’t lying about the Argosians’ goal; they and the Emerald Ones are fighting over something that would allow either side to defeat the other and then conquer the multiverse. The problem is that [spoiler] has other ideas. That’s why the Argosians can’t go with 84: they’ve been locked out.

    Atlas is now starting to realize just what he’s gotten himself (as well as Ron, Julie and Moonshadow) into. The question is what he’s going to do about it.

      Congratulate them for their clever thinking and publicly demote them into the pavement for acting behind his back; promising further demotions for every problem their actions will surely soon cause. They’re not nearly clever enough.

    Argosians: Throwing children into battle zones is our Basic Mode.

      How did the Argosians know that 84 wouldn’t be affected by whatever does “unpleasant things” to the Argosians. Or do they just not care?

      I’m almost ready to buy the trade paperback on Amazon (my local comic store didn’t have them) – the suspense is not killing me, but the pace of three pages per week is insufficient for my wants. Good job, Aaron Williams, in providing just enough material to drive sales!

        I would think that the Protection can somehow distinguish between “Argosian” and “other FISS”. Or maybe it works based on the person seeing himself as Solider/Politician/whatever of Argos? That would allow Atlas and his son to pass without problem.
        And of course the Argosians have no idea that a Von-Frogg is on the other side^^

        She doesn’t have Argosian DNA. They were betting that she would be able to enter the portal and cross the event horizon without becoming cookie dough.

    But… they’ve just committed the cardinal mistake of sending someone PAINFULLY straight-forward to do their dirty work for them.
    And they actually expect this to work out they way they want…

    I guess its time Moonshadow was deployed…

    God help the Argosians… they’re about to learn they aren’t as smart as they think they are…
