Commander Kitty is an aspiring spacer, always on the lookout for ways to [[GloryHound make a name for himself]] in the annals of space history, but with his resources consisting of [[TheAllegedCar a ship that barely holds together]], a [[BumblingSidekick barely competent helmsman]], an [[TheUnintelligible engineer that speaks in fluent gibberish]], a [[CloudCuckoolander little girl who's on his ship for no discernable reason]], [[AIIsACrapshoot the most user-unfriendly AI in charge of everything]], and a cut-rate teleporter he doesn't have a license for, it doesn't look like he's going to get there any time soon.

''[[http://www.commanderkitty.com Commander Kitty]]'' is a weekly WebComic by Scotty Arsenault featuring the misadventures of a cast of {{Funny Animal}}s InSpace!!

CK is an aspiring spacer, always on the lookout for ways to make a name for himself in the annals of [[InSPACE Space History]], but...he has no idea how to do it. And with a ship barely holding together, a crew consisting of a slacker at the helm, a [[TheUnintelligible gibberish speaking ferret]] for an engineer, a little kid doing...whatever it is she does on board this ship, and the most user unfriendly A.I. imaginable running loose, it doesn't look like he's going to get there any time soon.

Meanwhile, after a job gone bad separating her from her crew and leaving her in the clutched of the [[SpacePolice Triple-I]], rogue spacer Nin Wah is sentenced to be ThrownOutTheAirlock. Saved by a TeleporterAccident, she winds up shanghaied by CK's crazy ship of fools, but upon learning he's going to meet [[TheAce Ace]] and his Velvet Knight crew on a job, she comes along if only for a chance at joining the greatest spacer crew in the galaxy.

But little do they know that the evil that claimed Nin Wah's old crew is preparing to strike again, and the only thing standing between her and galactic conquest is a certain legendary spacer's brain!

CK is an aspiring spacer, always on the lookout for ways to make a name for himself in the annals of [[InSPACE Space History]], but... he doesn't always know how to do that. Not that having a ragtag, generally inept crew helps matters. Or snarky AI. Or certain rivals who make him look bad. Or constantly being in the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time...

Naturally, they didn't have much of a budget to attempt a recovery operation, constraining it to just two warning shots.
