It's a bit of a tradition in the webcomic community to do a strip swap on the 1st of April, so today's strip is by Dusan Jeftinija of Legostar Galactica, and I've reciprocated by doing his strip for today. (I've also mentioned Legostar Galactica before back in #770.)

Legostar Galactica has me in stitches sometimes. It's the ongoing adventures of a starship crew, vaguely parodying a fairly well-known "starship crew having adventures" TV and film franchise, but journeying into many other science fiction standbys along the way. Oddly enough, despite both making Lego-based webcomics that have been updating regularly since 2002, neither Dusan nor I knew of the other strip's existence until fairly recently. Having corrected that amazing oversight, I highly recommend his comic. (A small warning for those who appreciate Irregular Webcomic!'s family-oriented PG rating: Legostar Galactica is slightly more mature, using some mild cuss words and discreet adult situations, but nothing too harsh. More like PG-13.)
