Space has never EVER been so silly, so join Captain Spaceington and Co at the final frontier of laughter! From the space slugs wreaking havoc at the Space Prettiest Flower competition, to the flativerse where everything is two-dimensional (top tip: you can only enter the flativerse when flattened by a giant mallet), life onboard the SS Star Cat is never dull!
Space adventures don't come more comic than this, and comic strip adventures don't come better than Star Cat. * LoveReading *
A wonderfully funny and insanely clever example of getting comedy comics right! * Comicon *
