105 – She-Who-Hears

It’s She-Who-Hears!

Previously on Marooned…

While attempting to send a message to Earth, John fell ill. He returned to the Martian sanctuary Vita to administer antibiotics, which made him worse. Ugo has now brought him to the Volotrum (also called The Dark Ones), his only remaining chance to be healed.

Meanwhile, Asimov and Ril got trapped in a sandstorm and had taken sanctuary inside Captain John’s ship.

    The Big Reveal! Nice to get this point in the arc.

    Looks great, Tom…

    Thanks Og! Been a long time. This one needed more work, but was outta time, but I’m fairly happy with it. I was happy that my daughter walked up and knew immediately she was female. So the design seems to work.

    Dun, dun, dun!!!!!!

    Sorry, I just had to! :-)

  5. tdellaringa

    Ha, well the difference between LOST and Marooned is you don’t have to wait a freaking YEAR to find out what happens next. Sheesh!

  6. tpiro

    Nice use of panel layout. This story will look great when it’s all printed up together.

  7. tom_racine

    Love the design on “She Who Hears.” I hope she listens. :)

  8. Splox5

    I agree with tom_racine, nice design.

  9. tdellaringa

    Thanks guys!

    Ugo is most certainly having or at one point had an affair with the “tripods”, and I always knew there was liquid water on Mars!

  11. Evan

    Is the Martian water special? Is it what’ll heal John? Is the crystal in She-Who-Hears forehead like Mr. Sinister’s? Did the Losties succeed in changing the timeline? Oh, sorry got carried away with the serialized fiction questions there. I am really enjoying the story, Tom. Great work.

  12. tdellaringa

    Hehe thanks Evan. Ugo does seem to know a lot…

  13. bachterman

    i think ugo is an undercover “tripod”.
