Looks like The two docs and their driver didn’t crash on Jupe after all and now they are STEAMED !! Will Diet Smith be that one rare good guy who gets killed out of the strip ? :-O
1- DOIT: BARK BARK BARK! TECH GAL: What’s he bit-chen about this time? TECH DUDE: The way your suit jacket is too long and looks ridiculous on you, I think…
2- DOIT: LOOK! WE’RE UNDER ATTACK YOU FOOLS! LAUNCH THE DRONES!
3- TECH GAL: Yeah, well we would if we could but we forgot to recharge them after their mission to find and gather photographic evidence of “hot chicks poolside” for you to enjoy yesterday. DOIT: Darn it. Well – see if you get them recharged for today’s Photo Recon Mission – it’s going to be nice and sunny!
TECH GAL: What about the intruders, Sir? DOIT: Sir – they always call me “Sir”… I’ll be in the bunker. Let me know when it’s safe to come out.
I thought Geofence was a term describing the searching for cell phone numbers in use in a proscribed area, during a specific period of time? And, of course, that ship, whatever it is, is jamming the signals DS Industries uses to operate it’s drones.
Ironically, I’m finishing editing on another ‘in another fantasy world’ book in which drones are an out-of-place element. Drones and feudal-level societies don’t mix comfortably.
I guess the woman in the final panel is supposed to be looking up at a big screen, but it really looks like she’s rolling her eyes in contempt at this unfolding scenario. “Ugh, the craft is jamming our drones, I told you we needed to fit them with more powerful transmitters, dad, why don’t you ever listen?”

“Send in the drones … don’t bother, they’re here.” I don’t think the former Moon Governor would ever show up unannounced and jam Diet’s equipment.

Is Diet Smith still working from home? Dang if those drones don’t remind me of the space coupe.

I actually prefer this story arc to the one about the guy who was languishing in prison.

Needs eyes in the sky, send up the manned Space Coupe or an old style helicopter.
