    Beautiful draughtsmanship on this, down to the uniforms.

    And oh, dear, someone is in a right snit. New base of operations, anyone?

  2. Scotty

    I always save those III uniforms to last.. and I keep forgetting all the little pockets and buckles on them! These guys are the III medical corps. A bit simpler.

    Well, Taggy there, looks angry. Guess CK and the rest of the crew might be alright then. So are we gonna follow Ace for a while now, or are we switching to the crew on the next comic?

  4. Scotty

    it’s gonna get more science fictiony from here!

  5. Frank

    Oh, sure, now you notice it, Ace.

    Scotty, I know you’re trying to avoid using the red cross / red crescent, but why an X? Why not, say, a caduceus / rod of Asclepius?
    Also, the Gazzele’s left “hand” in panel one appears to be missing its hoof, if you know what I mean 😉

    @Frank: I second the motion to use the Rod of Asclepius in future comis, not only is it more badass, but it just has more style.

    Also, more science fictiony…? I’m not entirely sure what that implies, but I’m excited all the same!

    So, in the first three panels, there are three medical Corp personnell, but then in the last panel Ace and… the Fluffy counterpart whose name i forgot and who isn’t on the cast page unless I’m blind (which I might be) show up.

    Sorry for te double post but I just noticed that their patches only had two “I”s on them. I don’t know if that was a mistake or done for some reason that we don’t know of, but I thought I’d point it out nonetheless.

    Actually, Val, if you look at some of the larger III images, the third “I” is the white “I” formed by the meeting of the two “I”s. In other words, a use of negative space. The old Hartford Whalers logo was like that, with a very subtle “H” formed by the space in between a blue whale’s fluke and a green, lower case “W.”

    So those guys are being negative in space. Yup, that about sums them up. 😀

    ..it’s like a lower-case i in the center. The orange circle is the dot. It’s the kind of logo that is designed by a committee that has no business designing logos. (er.. wait a minute.)

    About the green crosses…. *shrug!*

    Well, I like it. It’s the kind of dorky and badly planned emblem that reminds us that these guys work for the government.

    Why is the ear of Ace “Complete” on the back, and in front we can see the scar?
    I really love this comic :3

    Personally, when I saw the logo, it reminded me of the ancient comic book/cartoon convention of how bandages are supposed to look when covering an “ouchie.” As such, the Green X works just fine for me.

    Oh, okay, I see it now. Sneaky. (the third i, that is)

    Hmm, who then was in the escape pod, then? The big oogly guys? (And the insignias on the uniforms are nicely designed!)
