Can someone help me figure out what comic strip this is?

This is recent. It is a comic strip and they did this really funny short.

Dr So and So has a robot. She beat Apollo 11 to the moon so the Americans wouldn't claim it. The Apollo astronauts were firing shotguns into the "air" when they landed.

I just can't remember. It was very clever and funny.

Dr. Connie Radar, PhD. This article describes how a short film was made of the episode you were describing.

The short film "Over the Moon" on Vimeo details the fictional lunar adventures of Dr. Connie Radar. "Over the Moon" chronicle's Radar attempting to stop the first moon landing by a crew of American astronauts. (In this science fiction world, Radar landed on the lunar surface in 1957, well before the 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing.) The 7-minute-video is based on the "Dr. Connie Radar PhD" comic strip and comes complete with a robot and some sleazy astronauts bouncing around and cooking hot dogs. Check out the video in the window below:

Unfortunately, I have not been able to find the comic strip in question on their site, even on the prior site, which holds some of the earlier strips.

  • Could he be thinking of the short film's storyboards? comicbookfactory.blogspot.co.uk/2015/08/…

  • It is possible. I was also running into a gap in the strips last night based on tagging, although I searched with different criteria this morning and I don't know that that gap is still there.

  • Ah, the gap in the strips is caused by viewing them on the front page. It seems to jump from 015 to 030 in a single bound. If you search for them (top left) by issue number, they're all still on there.
