Community McVicar Makes a Friend

After last month's rather forboding transmission, we found ourselves wondering: Where in the World Universe is Charlton McVicar? ...

I've never seen this comic before, so I assume I'm missing something here. Did the Agarans actually... you know... do anything to Hiraki and McVicar? I kinda feel like I just witnessed an act of interstellar terrorism.

EDIT: After reading the previous instalment, I think I understand. The Agarans smelled bad, so they had to die. Moral quandary resolved!

 

Official Starbound comic, schweet!

I just love that there just happens to be a pile of explosives lying around. Oh dear.

 

She's cute... for a Hylotl...

 

Nice !

 

Hiraki Corale is a future in-game NPC right?

 

Well this changes quite a lot about Agaran Menace.

 

I don't know if I agree with the portrait of Humans in this comic.
Or Hylotl.
Or anything for that matter :O.
Good art style tho.
Maybe I'am just missing the context.

 

You certainly are since Corale is no ordinary Hylotl.

 

Lol, I love Charlton's helpless flailing in the fight scene. I figured fairly quickly this was likely the legendary adventurer Hiraki Corale, after it appeared they were more prepared than batman.

Every story needs it's everyman for the reader to empathise with

 

But why is that Human such an ordinary Human then .
And why blow everything up.

 

Because he's just a journalist.

 

Huzzah! Hiraki in motion*!

*static, comic panel motion

 

Blowing stuff up is fun. Aaand we do get the impression that Hiraki likes to tear things apart in general from other lore.

 

Also official confirmation that Hylotl have 3 fingers and one thumb

 

And 3 toes!

 

I guess.
I often pick other classes than Humans in games.
But on Starbound I actually prefer the Humans.
All these races with different unique skills/traits, putting Human as the "everyman" seems kinda too-easy.
I would actually prefer if the Human one was the badass, an underdog compared to the other races.
But, you know. It's what ever.

 

I don't know what you're getting at when it's been long established that this particular guy is just a journalist.

 

Very nice, in both story and art. c:
