With a name like “Andy4Hire” they are probably two Australian oddjobbers, or …. I dont think I want to pursue this line of thought any further, I’m getting scared.
I suppose it was too derivative to imagine Tigerlily coming down from the skies in a tricked out Rolls Royce to lead everyone into the skies toward Lovetron.
The day is now theirs, oh boy, yep. So greet it with passion and pep. But one flying saucer has thrown her a tosser. And Annex One—please watch your step.
Is this he real life,
Is this the fantasy,
Turned of he device,
That disguised reality,
Open your eyes,
Look to he skies and see
Is that a spaceship? Maybe it’s come for me.
What if I really don’t wanna go.
Starting high, going low
We’ve beaten Skin horse, but does that matter to,
Bee. To bee.
…I agree, Unity. There are worse things.
If you’re doing it right, every day is like living in a rock opera.
It’s why I always have burn cream on hand, ….and a bio-hazard jump suit.
Umm, I think your life might be just a smidge too exciting.
I also have 911 on speed dial, just in case.
All those pesky digits could slow you down.
I’m wondering if Tip will have managed to switch outfits!
I don’t think a tin foil hat would be appropriate.
But, going with the Oz theme, I can see how Tip could make it work.
Tip manages to switch outfits in the split seconds it takes for Nick to traverse digital space.
Tip manages to switch outfits while wearing an exploding bomb collar and being pursued by an intelligent and spiteful gestalt entity.
Tip will *absolutely* switch outfits coming out of a flying saucer from Lovetron, and that outfit will be **fabulous**.
No bet.
Cue Tip coming down in a space-age outfit to make Tigerlily green with envy.
she knew. she totally knew as she said that
How many people want to see that rock opera?
(*raises hand*)
(*raises hand*) (*and other hand*) (*and other hand*)
Is that extra hand attached?….to you??

I’m going to be humming Ziggy Stardust songs all day now -_-
Did Boston even do a rock opera? Because that definitely looks like it could be one of their album covers.
I will NEVER get tired of “More Than A Feeling”!
No one ever gets tired of “More than a Feeling.” It is simply not possible.
That’s what happens when you forget and let your UFO insurance expire.
Well, she’s not wrong.
The chances of anything coming from Lovetron are a million-to-one, they say…
Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me~ Lass(y)
It could’a been worse. She could’a started singing “Tomorrow Belongs to Me.”
Sweetheart really has the hang of foreshadowing now.
When it’s unintentional and ironic, can you really say she “has the hang of it”?
I remember the Narbonic strip in which Dave ’causes foreshadowing’ but I don’t know how to find it.
Here you go. Fifth one down, October 28, 2005.
Here’s the one I was thinking of.
Well, one of them. Another one is where Dave is unstuck in time… october-20-25-2003/#comic-strip-image-2
And I may have just set a personal best for re-reading Narbonic in its entirety in less than 4 hours.
Thank you Andy

The bleached-out colour palette in panel 4 is a nice touch.
Beautifully done.

It’s always the little details that trip you up, isn’t it? A lost pencil, an unsigned form, a giant flying saucer due to come out of the blue . . . ,
Could have been worse.
“Now begins the work of moving forward. No, Hitty! You’ll step on…nevermind. Just don’t move any more, OK?”
Oh no, the “B plot” caught up with them.
Get it? Bee plot? Ohohoho!
Very “Children of the Sun”.

Very good!
Bowie’s not dead: he just went home.
“Overcome our own challenges, or have them solved by Bee Ex Machina from space? Hmm…”
Theory: the bees have been watching all this time but wanted to give the terrestrials a chance to win their own battles.
