Spa Daze
Comic written and illustrated by Ryan Reid
Panel 1: A seemingly limitless space. GIANT EGGS float in an unseen grid formation above a dark floor, far into the distance.
Panel 2: CRACK!! ROBOT’S LEG breaks through one of the eggs! Shell falls everywhere.
Panel 3: ROBOT sits, breathless, on the floor beneath the GIANT EGG he just escaped from. He’s surrounded by EGG GOOP and shell bits.
Panel 4: FRANCIS wanders in, with a GIGANTIC SQUID THING on her head. She’s enjoying a SMOOTHIE through a VERY SQUIRRELLY STRAW. She is very relaxed.
ROBOT
Where have you been?
FRANCIS
Hot squid massage. Smoothie Bar. You?
Panel 5: The dark nothing between time and space.
ROBOT (Voice over)
I awoke lost and alone - traversing the dark nothing between time and space. My younger self showed me all the ways we could avoid this inevitable future, and we laughed and laughed. Then I lost $200 playing billiards against the Horseshoe Nebula, ate a light lunch, and took a short nap.
Panel 6: ROBOT and FRANCIS retire to the SMOOTHIE BAR.
ROBOT
It was narrated by Morgan Freeman!
