Mothership Comics new stories

As time goes on, some of Mothership's fans write in to suggest new plot lines. A space setting almost opens up any type of possibility. As I develop Mothership comics, sometimes very slowly,
I try to explore new territory but I keep coming back to some of may favorite "space" stories. Star Trek explored some great subject matter. For example I loved the story where Kirk found the home of the ancient Greek gods and meets Apollo. Excuse me if I forget the Star Trek episode titles. Who can forget that giant planet eater that was destroyed only by overloading an already crippled star ship. And of course the entire "Mirror, Mirror" saga that is covered in every generation of Star Trek....I really loved the Enterprise version explaining the Earth empire's superiority over the other races. In some of the future Mothership comics strips I will explore these great story concepts. Even the ones that I think are original might have some residue of stories I enjoyed as a lad so please forgive me.

Where does "P" come from

"P" or Probe is a cross between the robot from Lost in Space, Marvin from Hitchhikers and a little bit of Cylon from the new Battlestar (the whole brain upload thing). I was excited to create a character that can be adapted to different situations including getting blown to bits. Readers can tally up how often that happened by looking at the stamped number on "P" 's chest plate. P's interchangeable body parts also makes him fun to draw. In the masthead I added tank tracks just to keep him in frame. Wings were added to punctuate his duty as "Wing Man" in the night club scene with Flask. I can't wait to draw a few 1000 more versions!
