My wife Karen and I went to the movies recently and saw Woody Allen’s “Melinda and Melinda.” (Quick review: Good, but not one of his best. 2 1/2 to 3 stars out of 4.) The idea in the movie was that you could take the same basic story and, depending on how you look at it, tell it as a comedy (with tragic elements) or a tragedy (with comic elements). Something that I suppose would be true of Station V3… reading it as a comic strip, it’s a comedy. If you actually had to work at a place like that… tragedy.

New bonus today: Another one of Linton’s security simulations. This time Morty has joined him in 2-player mode. The previous alternate alternate bonus is here now, and the “visit to Earth” is here. Thanks for voting!

In case you haven’t seen it yet: There’s a guest comic I drew up today at Ledgermain!

Today’s bonus strip is not only an alternate version of a previous strip… it’s an alternate version of a previous bonus (which was an alternate version of that previous strip). It’s interesting seeing what turns up in the big Station V3 Pile of Strips. I think this version was started first before I decided to alter the pirates’ “stealth technology” – and, obviously, finished last. For now. Maybe there’s a fourth version in there I’ve forgotten about!

One of the bonus strip requests on the forum was to have one with the V3 crew visiting Earth. So that’s what they’re doing today! Or are they…?

In the new bonus strip I just put up, Morty tries out one of Linton’s security simulations, and gets bonus points. And as an added bonus, the bonus archive has been updated too!
