I think that could be considered just "speculation" and I don't think the webcomic is a spoiler so....
I'm glad Tom's character is pictured like that. I think that's going to be part of the big conflict between soldiers and civilians, between the ones who want to "understand" who they are and why they are there and not just fight them and the ones who want just to shoot and kill. And I guees Tom's son, Hal, is more inclined to join the second group....

That's what I think, yes. It's predictable. And may I risk a guess saying that the younger son is a more questioning soul?

Or relapsed? Raffy and Anna, you're bringing really interesting points about the civilians vs. the militaries It's true there are two sides in trying to understand why the aliens are there... And if it's just out of curiosity (and not a strategic purpose), it's not only about the aliens, but I guess also about us. What is it on our planet that can make them come here and take something? That can be about the 'hopeful' part of the show, a way to make us think about what's good on this little sad planet .

I just realized what I was (sort of) quoting. That was completely unintentional... (and frankly I'm a little disturbed that my subconscious can still randomly throw up ER quotes without me being aware of it) I like that. I hope it's not something as corny as 'love'... I don't think the aliens are the touchy-feely kind

Moved. I would if I could! You have to be a US resident to do that.

Thanks for moving them! You have to be a US resident to do everything is funny! I don't have a clue. But it has to be something which is related to adolescence....acne? Acne is destroyng their race....and our face! ;D Mmmm. If it's love they have a strange way to find the meaning of it

You're absolutely welcome, Raffy. didn't work for the one on the right... Maybe they aliens are conducting a research about Justin Bieber and they need to collect his fans to study the effects he's having on teenagers....

Raffy, I hope someone 'official' IS following the board, because this is just too good to miss. I guess if there's an acne joke on the show, we'll know for sure.

Can't they just "collect" him? ;D Look at them. They obviously suffer a lack of something which could allow them to get throught acne without becoming an.....alive spittle? But of course there will be someone who will say that it doesn't impress them so much

They're smart, they know the consequences would be disasterous... ;D

;D Because we're supposing they are "smart". Could they be just a bunch of idiots? Yes, they have weapons, space ships....those things make them technologically more advanced than us but does it also mean they're also intellectually superior to us? And are we intellectually superior to people who lived in the Midle Ages just because they didn't have all our technologies?
