Drive Timeline

in News by DaveKellett

Saturday, August 21, 2010 - 03:34 PM

Over in the forums, Drive reader Bill asked a good question regarding the emperors, and the timeline around them. So let me take a second to help clarify:

Veetans live (tops) around 25 years, but begin their grand "walk-abouts" around 3 or 4. So Nosh's grandfather has about 22 years of space travel behind him.

The current emperor, Fernando's uncle, and the one we've met in the strip, has only been in power for a few months.

The previous emperor, Fernando's grandfather, was the one the elder Veetan served under.

Fernando ('Nando): Oh. uh... Here.
2 Nosh's Grandfather: ah...AH YES! I served under your Grandfather! ...Before he was Emperor, of course.
Nosh: Grandpapa, please. Our time is short. Have you seen this creature or not?
3 Nosh's Grandfather: I don't think so, no. Tell me friend: what do you know about yourself?
The Pilot: Nothing. Aside from being able to fly a ship, I don't get what all the fuss is about me. I'm nuthin' special.
4 Nosh's Grandfather: No, no no...Don't talk like that. Never talk like that.
Nosh's Grandfather: Our minds tell us we are nothing, while our hearts insist that we are EVERYthing. You must always err toward your heart.
5 Nosh's Grandfather (staring)
The Pilot (staring)
6 Nosh: ...Biologically, he has two hearts.
Nosh's Grandfather: Nosh.
