It's a YMMV trope, so anything creator-originated does not qualify

* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: {{Parodied}} with Phranc, a curvy, bikini-clad alien who would fulfill this trope perfectly...except that he's a macho man from a culture of GenderInvertedTropes.

* AliensStealCable: Phranc's species, the Zedzelnines, apparently pioneered the study of Earth television, which helps explain their cultural similarities.



* HypercompetentSidekick: Though technically only the head of accounting, Imel is actually the only who keeps the whole space station running.



* UniversalTranslator: Name tags can translate alien languages, allowing everyone at the company to understand each other. (Except the Boss.)

* StraightMan: Imel.

Shortly after Earth makes FirstContact with alien life, an accountant named Ted Musagi, having always dreamed of going into space, applies for a job with an alien fuel company. Unfortunately, an accounting job on a space station turns out to be roughly the same as an accounting job on Earth...just with lots of weirder co-workers.

Not to be confused with the 90's TV series ''Series/SpaceCases.''

----
!!This webcomic provides examples of:

* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: The Boss.
* FirstContact: The series begins with Ted watching TV as aliens make contact with Earth.
* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: {{Parodied}} with Phranc, a curvy, bikini-clad alien who would fulfill this trope perfectly...except that he's a macho man from a culture of GenderInvertedTropes.
* InterchangeableAsianCultures: When Japanese-American Ted first meets Imel, she tries to address him in Chinese. To be fair, that's pretty close for someone not experienced with humans.
* PointyHairedBoss: The Boss, apparently--Imel claims that even if Ted could understand his language, he probably just said gibberish anyway.
* StarfishLanguage: The Boss speaks a language too obscure for the UniversalTranslator.
* UniversalTranslator: Name tags can translate alien languages, allowing everyone at the company to understand each other. (Except the Boss.)
