Well, aren’t WE Mister Observant! It’s a desert, Zik, it’s going to get hot!

At last, the coast is clear. It’s time to grab some pipes and start hiking. As they go, Trent explains that the ship was likely making a delivery. It sure was, and you missed it, guys!

Zik and Trent hide themselves in the junk heap and hunker down until the coast is clear. But look at the size of that naked Clonoid! Whoa! Guys, turn around, you’re going to want to see that! Guys? GUYS! Oh damn…

Trent is certainly not amused. But what’s that in the sky? Why is he so frightened all of a sudden? Tune in next week and find out!

Amelia is pretty quick on the draw with the snark! Good thing Zik lets it slide. But poor Trent is getting completely ignored! That’s not going to do good things for his relationship with Zik.

Back on the prison planet, Zik seems to have found solution to his heat-sink problem, so let’s hope these copper pipes will do the trick!

This is the first page I drew 100% digitally. I’m still getting used to the new work-flow so please bear with me as I get my techniques down! The art will continue to improve from here on out as I get used to working with a tablet instead of pencils and pens.

It seems like even though Zoot is the computer and Zik is the user, Zoot knows how to push Zik’s buttons! It seems like Zik isn’t too keen on discussing how he feels about Amelia quite yet!

It gets pretty windy on this planet during sand storms! No wonder everyone wears robes and ties everything down when they hit. But Zik is stranded! Can he find a way back home?

Queen Elcyra isn’t used to having things not go her way! She’s going to find out exactly how Zik escaped, and then crush him like an insect.

Sandstorms are somewhat frequent on this desolate planet. That’s why everyone’s wearing robes with hoods; it’s just easier to keep all that dust out. We’re about to go and visit someone new for a couple of weeks, but we’ll check back in to see what Zik is up to soon!
