"Eve: Order Zero" -- a KSP Graphic Novel (POSTLUDE COMPLETE...bet you didn't see THAT coming.)


Recommended Posts

Glad to see that foreshortening the Klaw in that image increased the foreboding :) As to what's up with Val: if you think you've seen that exact image of her before you're not wrong. I did not use a recent screenshot for it.

Now that you mention it, that picture looks a lot like the one from Val's final monologue in Duna, Ore Bust.

Bill is the Neo of the Kerbal Matrix.

Conducting some DPA testing to find out how far a quote can be streched, are we? :D

I definitely think we need different-coloured spacesuits (or at least helmets) for the three types of Kerbonaut- blue for scientists, yellow for engineers and red for pilots. The last two could be reversed if you prefer Jim Kerman to Jean-Luc Kerman ;)

Actually those exist; GregroxMun made a nice set, and there are others. I'm working on a Kerbfleet version myself for the next story. But color alone still might not be enough, especially if by chance your landing party consists of all males or all females:

PS yes this page is canon, #8.18.

I so wanted to rep you for this. Darned forum software anyway.

I guess you couldn't parkour up to the hatch. Well, you had to do something. After all, you couldn't leave all that hard-won science behind. Bob would never forgive you. :)

Happy landings!

I did try--that's how Jeb ended up hanging from the Billmobile landing gear by his ankle.

And yeah, I did completely forget about the science when designing the two ships: I guess my only concern--like Bill's--was getting everyone off the surface, and I knew I could do that with a crew transfer. Tho it begs the question of exactly where the Jeffries tubes run through the M7's structure: I mean, you'd have to go through the landing gear into a Mammoth engine, then up the Kerbodyne tanks, and then I guess squeeze through either a strut or a fuel duct to get to the core section--yeah, maybe better not to think about it.

So since I did release page 18 a bit early now you all know what the soundtrack will be for next update...

I've wondered about that, too. My theory is that they do an Elastigirl thing (or Mr. Fantastic, if you prefer) and squeeze themselves through the tiniest ducts when needed. That could also explain their amazing resistance to G-forces.

Happy landings!

Hum, this means that Bill is either Neo, Agent Smith or Cypher ( the only ones in the Matrix movie(s ... :P) that could enter or get out of the Matrix at will ) :D I just wonder which one ;) ...

On the squeeziness part ... well, it was not already established that kerbals were made of fuel? ;) ( atleast is what the good ol'Karbonite mod says ... )

There is no Mohole
