Good News for People Who Like Bad News

Dear False Positive Readers,
This is Ashley Walton, Mike’s sister and editor of False Positive. I have really terrible, awful news and a tiny bit of good news.
You might have noticed it’s been a couple years since we’ve posted anything on this website. Well, brace yourself for the saddest update I’ll ever share.
I get the feeling this story is going to end the way it started…
I’m with leon on this one.
I’ve seen enough hentai…
Interestingly, while “redeem” can refer to a personal vindication (the common usage relevant to religion), it can also refer to the payment tendered in exchange for something. So how could one possibly pay for being returned to life…? Pretty deep.
…nah, I’m just kidding. They’ve docked at a station and are about to toss him in the organic recycler, which gives them five cents per kilogram of deposit. That may not sound like much, but every little bit helps.
You know, all considered, this is going better for him than I’d have imagined it might.
It looks like a religious ritual to me.
He needed the suit to occupy the same room as the aliens. They want to keep him alive for now.
looks like he’s connected directly to the aliens. look, right under the yellow sphere to the right, you can see that the tentacle has a claw or something. question, are they injecting something or sucking him dry?
Interesting. They seem to be either sucking, or injecting colour out of him. However, since the areas surrounding the places where the tentacles pierce him are black, I would say they are injecting the colour black into him.
They’re not injecting anything. It looks more like they were painting him with some aerosol, like a graffitti.
that’s just the “tip of the tentacle,” as some would say.
Space Mormons have gotten very aggressive in their recruitment. This guy still hasn’t resorted to any bad language so I’m sure he’ll fit right in once he’s settled into his tentacles, collar and colorful orb. Although his board game skills seem to be lacking…
hes strapped to some surface but surrounded by probing aliens? oh this can’t be good.
I absolutely love this guy’s delivery.
Yeah he’s Great! He must have been some sort of exploration mission crew.. he’s surprisingly calm, obviously well-educated with a sharp mind, and non-judgemental… in the face of aline tentacle rape!
This story would be entirely different in feel if the rescued human were female… more awkward and potentially horrific.
it looks to me like they’re marking his suit
The aliens are collecting repair parts for their ship. He just became their navigator since he can work with angles and such.
OK, so that was a pick up line. Guess now he knows!
Yeah, “Allow us to extend our tentacles in friendship…!”
‘Brown-chicken, Brown-Cow’… “Make with the Rishathra Human!”
He is about to be redeemed. The aliens are going to exchange him and the other captives for valuable prizes.
So, they are sucking the knowledge right out of him? And that’s why the other alien warned him when he wanted to show proof of intelligence.
Alien baptism?
I think you mean, “Space-Baptism.”
You know, the alien probing is nice and all, but is that guy wearing a Naruto headband under his helmet? That’s true horror.
Oh crap, this is how Doomsday started. In time he’ll be unkillable with a raging hatred of spaghetti-monsters.
Also, after looking at Benjamin’s avatar and going back a few pannels (http://falsepositivecomic.com/2014/06/10/redeem-page-11-webomics-horror/), I could not help but to think that the straws the aliens provide our little Human with may be used to construct the symbol for Hastur.
Am I reading this comics too much? xD
