for the last time dad, you can’t pause a multiplayer game! …or a fire.
Webcomics featuring sedna's dad
who is sedna’s dad?
one more character checked off the “who is ___?” comic list.
i sure hope sedna’s dad has a really good car insurance policy.
700,000 hours
one day i was talking with an old friend on the phone when out of the blue he mentioned we live for less than 1 million hours and i haven’t been able to stop thinking about it ever since, so naturally i figured i’d impart some of this existential dread on all of you folks. i’m pretty sure i’ve already spent at least 1/700th of my existence playing rome: total war.
sunny day
reading under a blanket is a bit like virtual reality. it’s super fun and immersive, but looks really stupid from the outside.
girl with balloons
(click here for a high resolution version of this illustration)
hurray! a considerably less ridiculously time-consuming illustration than the last one. i bet people will like it more than that one anyway because clouds are pretty and life is unfair. :(
apparently i have a thing for painstakingly drawing all the stars 100% accurately and then covering half of them with clouds anyway. but it’s the thought that counts, right guys?
stargazing
(this comic contains an easter egg that tells you when i drew it. i wonder if anyone will notice.)
we did it mates! 100 comics! that’s almost 0.006% of the number of peanuts strips! thanks everyone for supporting my now three-digit-long space comic strip series. hopefully i’ll manage to stay alive and not amputate my right hand for long enough to bring you at least 900 more.
unfortunately i have to start updating sedna only 2 times/week from now on (tue + sat), as 3 isn’t a sustainable pace for me except maybe as a full-time job, and the only reason i’ve managed it so far was due to my massive buffer. but i’m sure you’ll all forgive me.
…you will, right? O_O;
biggest fan
aww, look at that girl getting involved in the democratic process at only 8 years old. isn’t that sweet?
walking my rover
did i create this entire comic just as an excuse to draw sedna taking ako for a walk? no!
maybe.
okay yeah.
confession: i’m really hoping one day sedna gets enough readers for me to justify selling merch… because i kinda want my own ako. remote-controlled and everything.
ingenuity
ingenuity (aka “ginny) still hasn’t flown yet (at least as of when this comic was published), but when it does it will be not only the first flight in the history of mars but any planet outside of earth. and if everything goes well, we might see bigger, more ambitious helicopter drones on mars in the future.
given the perseverance rover has a top speed of about 0.15km/h, i’m sure you can imagine how revolutionary it would be if we could start exploring mars from the air.
surface sample
percy is actually the first step in a plan to bring a martian surface sample to earth for the first time, which will be of huge massive scientific importance.
essentially a mini esa-built rover will collect the samples from percy and deliver them to a nasa-built rocket, which will launch into mars orbit and rendezvous with another esa-built spacecraft which will take the samples and return to earth by the year 2031 if all goes to plan (which it probably won’t).
