So what’s the plan
on July 9, 2016 at 12:01 amChapter: Sign of the Apocalypse
Characters: Head Alien, Monkey Master
Location: Island in the Bermuda Triangle #3, Martian Embassy
DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
….you know, I’m pretty sure I killed off a few of those Teletubby hat-wearing Alien guys. What’re they doing there?
Maybe they have a surfeit of Teletubby hats?
They came with a bulk discount.
So, uh.
Who put him in the tube?
Martian ghosts.
I thought I drew a fairly conspicuous motorized slab with mechanical arms in the bottom of the panel!
Okay. I hadn’t connected those points. I thought it was just a miscellaneous piece of Martian tech.
So what, did the slab just go “hey, a dead body, better chuck this thing in the res chamber?”
It was either that or in the medical waste bin.
This only happened because Starscream took some potshots at the embassy and jostled Head Alien into place, didn’t it.
All this time, I figured that between Monkey Master barging in to the Martian Embassy and the Cheese throwing them all out, a span of time had passed that allowed Monkey Master to put Head Alien into a Resurrection Chamber.
Oh. Oh! Me too! Didn’t occur to me till just now that MM and the other aliens are not inside there too.
A few previously-killed-off characters are shown alive, in a facility whose whole purpose is apparently to revive dead characters. How could we *possibly* explain that?!
Nah, the Teletubby Aliens aren’t in the Embassy; they’re on Secret Alien Base Island In The Bermuda Triangle #3.
But, I mean, anyone can wear a hat.
“But once he’s revived…”
“You’ll have to let him do all the monologuing, again?”
“…Shut up.”
Does Monkey Master have some of that Transformers size-changing tech where Megatron can be a giant robot dude or turn into a gun sized to be held by a giant robot dude or by a human?
And does the schedule here imply that the normal Alien gestation period is ten months? I seem to recall a certain spoily event taking nine, so…
In an oversight?
SEMME, you had like one job, one villain to look out for!
I believe Monkey Master is referring to an oversight on the Cheese’s behalf. SEMME was trying to stop Monkey Master, but they failed (and then the Cheese overpowered them all and threw them out).

Also,
I just assumed some of the others liked the telly-tubby hats and started wearing them too.
Obviously, the Teletubby hats are passed on following rules (or an algorithm, if you so will) not dissimilar to the ones governing the propagation of the British Crown. Just adapted a bit to take into account how Alien guys reproduce.

I just kinda figured the little guys considered the hats as Standard Infiltration Stealth gear, used by whoever needs it to sneak around human cities, and when it’s not in use they just get picked up by whoever feels like wearing it.
Dammit Cheese, you couldn’t have dragged HA out and left the dead humans inside instead?
