ask your mother

ask your mother published on 6 Comments on ask your mother

wait, sedna has a mother?!

that’s right, apparently sedna actually had a mum back in classic sedna. i’d been meaning to reimagine and redesign her a bit before reintroducing her to the comic, but ended up taking so long most new readers probably just assumed sedna’s dad was a single parent by now. well, here she finally is, looking a tiiiny bit different from before. hope you guys enjoy the next batch of mum comics because they were a blast to write.

(also now i’m wondering if sedna having two loving parents automatically disqualifies her from ever getting a disney tv/movie adaptation.)

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.

hey mates! hope you all had a fun christmas and didn’t give your grandmothers covid.

i kinda like this comic. it’s simple but funny. and you could totally change the text in the first panel and turn it into a meme. if there are any young and in touch people reading this, you know what to do.

hopefully non-aussies know what a hills hoist clothesline is, or this comic is gonna be real confusing.

i would be amiss if i failed to mention that ‘spaghettification’ is a real scientific term that you should totally drop whatever you’re doing and google right now. it refers to when the extreme tidal forces of a black hole stretch you into a long skinny noodles should you get too close. well, more likely it would just shred you to pieces, and you would have been well cooked by extreme heat and radiation long before you even got there, but hey, you’d be a tad too dead to appreciate the difference either way.

just stay away from black holes kids. they’re not your friends.

now you can add “extra-vehicular activity” (e.v.a.) to the list of technobabble acronyms you can use to sound like the very smart person you know you are.

i’ve been told that you don’t actually need to put dots after each letter if you write it in something called… “capital letters”? whatever that is.

falcon 9

rockets have pretty much always been single-use since their invention, which has been the primary reason for space travel being so ludicrously expensive. imagine how much a plane ticket would cost if an airliner could only fit 3 passengers and was destroyed after one flight. nasa dabbled with reusable spacecraft with the space shuttle, but the refurbishment of the shuttle was so expensive it would have been cheaper if they’d kept flying single-use rockets.

when spacex landed a falcon 9 first stage in december 2015, we may have finally entered an age of true reusable spacecraft, where rockets can simply be refuelled and flown again much like an airliner. of course, we’re not quite there yet, but in a few decades space travel may finally be accessible not just to astronauts and ultra-gazillionaires, but to regular folk like you and me.

…well, not really me. you’ll still probably need many thousands of bucks for a ticket, and i forfeited making that kind of money when i started drawing comics. :(

i like to imagine the ridiculous amount of time sedna must have spent practising and fine-tuning in order to nail that shot instead of just knocking on dini’s door. but then again, what was sedna gonna do with her time anyway if not launch rockets?
