Author's notes: This was created in March 2007. Was my first time digitally compositing. Was also made before I retconned the Phoenix-series of ships as transwarp-testing vessels destroyed one after the other. They just happen to be classifying it in this one. Also, shout out to Comic Sans!

Off Switch

Author's notes: After those few coloured ones, I did a complete 180° and went back to a simplified sketch version. This next series of comics was created in December 2010. In theory, I would've used these as the planning stage before going full colour.​
