It’s a Two-fer Tuesday: “Earthman, Go Home” Party

Good Show Sir comments:

1. “Earthman, Go Home!” screeches the lizard creature.

2. “Earthman, Come Back!” We forgot about our scheduled maintenance.

Thanks to Roger McC for sending one in.

You might remember this from here.

Kendall Art Direction: I said I want him studly, you can see his 12-pack through the form-fitting metal space suit! … Well, why else do you think it’s called form-fitting?!

You know what? For the audiobook, just ditch the spacesuit; just show us the 6-pack. … Yes, I said 6-pack; we can’t afford that 12-pack – it’s just an audiobook!
