Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for November 13, 2014

That Martian on the right reminds me too much of Ken Jennings…

You have a laser!? Fantastic. Can you open the jewel box on my new Pink Floyd CD?

I did not know that. Now I have to look that up. Thank you.

The laser’s too powerful. That’s how Curiosity killed the cat. “Catch the dot! Catch the—” ::szzzz::That’s why you won’t find a cat on Mars now.

Power perceived is power achieved.

“They should say ‘Yankee, go home’.”

Not funny, given to what happen to three of our of sailors in Turkey just a few days ago!

Baslim, great to see someone else reads the old classics. emjaycee, it’s a good old fashioned adventure story that has almost nothing in common with the movie.

After a few days, they concluded that their new robot master had the worst aim in the universe.

They’ll change their mind once they see our alcohol taxes (not from the US!).

I’m anticapating some Philae lander jokes! Sucks to be a cartoonist of a space theme strip and current events involving space forces the artist to acknowledge it in some funny way. No pressure Mr Rickard. Get crakin!

Is the one on the left making air quotes with his fingers when he says the word “laser”? In the missing panel he has his pinkie to the corner of his mouth…..

“Farewell to the Master” is an excellent story I recommend to everyone, not just sf fans. They don’t write them like that any more.
