So, are the pods on conveyer tracks, like an upside down rollercoasters, only shuffling around like individual blocks on a Rubik cube? Or is vector space producing a magical effect like the interior of the “Luggage” from the Discworld series?

more interesting thought they are opening an “entrance” hatch when they need an “exit” hatch

that’s very close to what i was thinking. Rippy one. I was thinking about what was it Gab has been feeding the people on his ship? have you ever read Bio of a Space tyrant?

@Lavabat: A setup to get Patient Zero here to “accidentally” spend some time deprogramming in one of these pods? I really wish I had a clue at what Gabriel is after. 😕

@Josh.C: That’s a good point that Vector Space might be involved. I think making each of these pods an oubliette would be cool, if not a bit excessive. 😛

Now, would it more humane to let the Org officers rot in the pods, or to just toss them out the airlock?

@Sulucamas and Lavabat: It’s a very real possibility that there might be quite a bit of pods.

Remember, Vector space makes many things possible. Faster then light travel. Hammer space. Vector cuffs.

Of course it also makes the chance that some of these cells can become an Oubliette much more possible. Razil said that Gabriel put officers in there, he didn’t mention anything about letting them back out.

@Sulucamas: There is either a zillion pods, or Gabriel hardly ever uses them, or its a set up.

I don’t know if this is part of some “test” or what, but if they haven’t been noticed already, all of this CLACK-SHUNTing (supposedly all over the ship) is bound to do it. 😮

@Starcat5: Or maybe she’s pissed to finally see Jason again? :3

@Shad: That quote’s perfect, given the setting! xD

@Lavabat: Guess there are either a zillion pods, or Gabriel hardly ever uses them, eh?

I don’t have much to say about this comic, other than what others have said (dark humor is great). I just want to thank Rachel for keeping this comic going for so long, and for being willing to take time to discuss the comic with her fans.
