    Hmm... the face seems kind of familiar (Spoiler in the link I guess?). Strange, I say.

    More importantly, Zvonamir wouldn't be whining about an alien invasion. He knows they're already here, and have been for millennia.

    Man, Maxima is gonna be so upset when she learns that the legal system does not in fact consider extraterrestrials "people". Heck, they don't even qualify as animals. I think extraterrestrials are technically considered a kind of meteorite.

    I dont think extraterrestrials are considered at all. Should make for an interesting time to be a lawyer. Some sides pushing the expansion of all men are created equal to include all sentient life, others trying to get it codified that it only applies to humans and so we need all different laws dealing with aliens. Religious groups screaming, conspiracy theorists dancing in the streets.

    Well it is somewhere down there in africa.
    But i guess the public apperance of a spaceship full of refugee's does explain the other guy rampaging around.

    Unless I read the Satellite Overhead Graphic wrong: there are two red lines that show the zoomed-out colony ship model. They point to, roughly, the Kivu region in Eastern Kongo/Zaire, which is supposedly a place for Galtyn. Although my headcanon was placing Galtyn near Katanga, but nobody ever said that in-comic, so it seems to be Kivu. [Edit: Looking closer, it could also be Zambia, the point seems to be right west of the Malawi lake. Kivu would be in the center of the red triangle. Or my optics are screwed.]

    But what I assume you are looking at is the blue warning marker (!) with the calendar specs. That one is strangely pointing towards Ethiopia/Somalia, yeah. Unfortunate placing, maybe. Or the marker and the red ship zoom-out are unrelated. Or it's really the indication that the Alari haven't landed their colony ship in Galtyn, but on a random point on Earth that they found suitable. In the latter case, the red lines are not indicating Galtyn, at all.

    Could be; it's hard to tell as we don't have Madagascar as additional reference. It does, however, have the Angola / Namibia curve, so ... yeah, about that region, if the red lines indicate location.

    I guess the random chance to make the first superhero interview ever did made her career. Sometimes all it takes is to be at the right time at the right place and have the reflex to grab the opportunity.

    Did Deus arrange this somehow? Or is he just the quickest to jump on an opportunity?

    Well, he was on Fracture Station at the same time as some Alari refugees and could well have heard about it there. An advanced civilization's homeworld being destroyed by an unknown assailant is major news and was probably a major topic of conversation there. He also knew Sciona and had an strong idea of her plans and goals. So he knew the Alari were interested in Earth. It isn't a huge jump to think of the possibility that an Alari ship or two might show up. So he could well have thought through a few contingencies. Enabling him to react faster than anyone else when they arrived.

    Huh a book recommendation post has he done that before, can't remember? I think I tried that story once since I sometimes like reading smut (though something with a decent story and characters is quite hard to find) didn't like the MC or his interaction with the first girl he meets so I stopped. Though that is the second rec of it I have seen, was also on a list (of mostly non smut) stories from some web serial writer and I did like some of those recommendations so maybe it gets better later.

    Hmm thinking about it can I even talk about stuff like this on this forum, mentioning a book that has explicit sexuality hardly is explicit sexuality by itself but I am never quite sure how restrictive the rules here are?

    Considering that there is a discussion thread for Ménage à 3 webcomic, which is NSFW fairly often, it is not a problem to mention this as long as you do not go into the details.

    And on that note, if you like good, character-driven stories with a generous helping of spice, then I recommend Alfie webcomic. It is a true gem among NSFW works.

    Or even his portal - those things are pretty easy to track down i think, if Cora could pinpoint Sydney.

    Doubtful; his towers are just standard solar updraft.

    Now, his portal, on the other hand...

    I think the portal was implied, since it's basically literally inside the updraft towers complex.

    DANGIT SYDNEY! Bad timing is BAD! lol The best part is, she could possibly get away with this if she beamed down alone and DIDNT start blabbering on about stuff she shouldnt talk about, but something tells me we are going to have a few of coras crew with her as well.

    At the very least she can spin a solid story out of the whole refugee problem and thusly explain away the spaceship and stuff. If she were quick-witted enough to pull it off obviously.

    That was Arianna?

    For comparison, Arianna in 2010 and Arianna in 2016.

    I already noticed this when Maxima re-appeared: Dave was drawing her closer to the style Cora gets; with Arianna and that reporter the style change is more pronounced, I'd say.

    Considering that the faces are now a bit more detailed especially in terms of shading, the changes were inevitable. In additional to that Arianna had a sharper jawline before but this also coincides with design shift in other characters. I guess for her that jaw was a defining detail, so we see the difference more.
