9A webcomic started in 2008, featuring what may be one of the cutest betentacled beasties ever, an [[StarfishAliens Albategna]] called Sadachbia (but named something [[StarfishLanguage entirely different]]).
10When a story starts with alien archaeologists unearthing the remains of an extinct humanity, you know something went down (just exactly WHAT hasn't been revealed yet).
11
12The comic follows Sadachbia's early life (briefly), archaeological internship (interrupted by time travel), accidental time-trip to pre-[[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt armageddon]] Earth (where a human, Roland, was sort-of abducted), and currently, what happened when they pressed a button on what is now Sadachbia's time-ship.

17!!This webcomic provides examples of:
18
19* AlienBlood: Subverted, Sadachbia's blood is red.
20* CombatTentacles: Apparently Sadachbia has a wicked roundhouse.
21* CoolStarship: It may or may not be really old (what with TimeTravel, this is extra confusing), it might be one-of-a-kind, and whatever else it is it's certainly cutting-edge.
22* ExtraEyes: It's normal for them, but Albategna have 6 eyes. There are also what appear to be 4-eyed bird aliens. And at least one blob creature with who knows how many.
23%%* FillerStrips
24* {{Hermaphrodite}}: All of Sadachbia's species are this.
25* InnocentAliens: Sadachbia and several of the others excavating Earth.
26%%* NightmareSequence
27%%* OneGenderRace
28%%* ScienceFiction
29%%* ShoutOut
30%%* StarfishAliens
31* StarfishLanguage: WordOfGod says that Albategna speech probably sounds comparable to birdsong.
32%%* TheUnpronounceable
33%%* TheyWouldCutYouUp
34* TimeTravel: The first time was unintentional, caused by pressing random buttons. The second was intentional, but was also caused by pressing random buttons.
