Strip 28: The Boundless Mind

I knew I wanted to drop some huge revelations when I started rewriting Part 2, but the visual inspiration for this strip didn’t come until I asked mecha.red to do a series of poster concepts for the background of strips 12-14. One of the posters was a piece of military propaganda urging Cyktans to join their mechanized defense force to fight off the revolutionary robots, and the end result was so good, I knew we had to use it again somehow. I also knew that all the talking heads and exposition in this part would put everyone to sleep, so the idea of bringing the propaganda poster to life seemed like the perfect solution. But rest assured, dear readers. The exposition and talking heads will soon be a thing of the past.
