As much as I love the story as it is in the "non-Fools" universe, I would really, really love to see this storyline continued! She returns to Planet Didi, where she meets the Queen and her pet buttmonkey, Gary!


Fine. I'll just sit in the corner and secretly desire it.

But it fits perfectly in the ongoing plot! :P

Would be hilarious if the next comic had Alex shocked at Ingrid having decloseted herself, but without any mention of Starfire Sandra at all. And then it just goes on normally.

You're right that it's free, but did you think when it comes time to do the KS, being constantly up to date could help them get more funds?

Well, the Kickstarter main event is the Ma3 book, and they always deliver their 150 strips per year, Sticky Dilly Buns is also an item this year and they updated it regularly until the last strip (which completes book #2), and i'm confident that they will complete the 19 remaining strips to add Sandra Vol 2 to the list.

It's all fun and games until the next comic reveals this really happened.

Then why mention people should lighten up on the frequency of their free entertainment, when it wasn't your problem to deal with that comment ;p

SOTR never had a Kickstarter... the Kickstarter have always been for Ma3 and SOTR is a stretch goal or add on, so yeah, even if SOTR updates infrequently, I'm pretty sure the Ma3 Kickstarter will get their funds no problem because it has always been for Ma3 and not for SOTR.

It would kick ass if this were canon. I've always rather liked "the prank is that there is no prank"... besides, I kind of don't want to lose this Ingrid moment.

Sandra will probably land back on this rock sooner or later, and it's really been more Alex/Marie/Lavali's show for a while now.

Besides, it would explain why she gave her school presentation in English.

Exactly, and i'm positive you will finish the 19 remaining strips for book#2 by the time the Ma3 vol.8 Kickstarter goes online, so it can be an add-on or a stretch goal :D
