Sunday Comic Strip

Forehead bumps! This week's Sev Trek explains why all the aliens in the galaxy look the same apart from a few bumps on our forehead!

Other Punchlines



These comics are created from the winning entries of The Sunday Cartoon Contest - the winning punchline is chosen in the weekly IRC Judging Session. This week's winning punchline was written by Trevor Raggatt. You can read the transcript of the IRC session where we decided the winner of all the competitions as well as the finalist punchlines and Punchlines of the Day.


Kenny Irvine Brown

Because we are u, u idiot! It's just make up! Moron!

JasonThorne

Lets just say it involves Quirk and a woman from each mentioned species.

SKATTA

We get a bump each time we kill a human. Oops did I say that out loud?

Roy

Ehhhh...one size fits all?

Roy

Captain Kirk and his time machine

Roy

I see..You never heard of the universal cosmetic appearance translator?!?

Roy

misery loves company..

Unforgiven

You should see what I look like under my clothes.

Gregory Griffiths

We have identified the cause as something called 'sevspace'.

Gregory Griffiths

It's for the same reason that all caves look alike.

Jim

CGI won't be able to display aliens until Forager.

Jim

Ever wonder how we hide all this stuff to play humans on our TV shows?

aydeisen

The aggravation of everyone asking the same question

Cmdr. Solomon

Well, at least I have hair, baldy.

P Swayne

Nobody looks like you! We have hair!

Nodrog_CRC

God (Gene) made man in his own image... and Velcrons, and Klingoffs, and Wrongulans, and fungi, and...

Ensign Walkonpart

It's acne rearing its ugly forehead, Sir.

The Red 9

Take a look at that classic cartoon strip about dwindling grey matter for the answer.

127 of 128

All right, I admit I AM human. Just a little trouble with my cheese grater.

Pizman

Hey, you forgot skin tone!

Commander

6 hours in a chair to look like this!!!

K'ec

We have always wondered what happened to YOUR facial bumps.

Adam Clark

What are YOU complaining about? Just wait a few years until Voyager starts!

Rik

Let us all praise the Great Cheap Maker!

Rik

God knows never to change a winning formula!

Latin From Manhattan

I'll tell you why, if you'll tell me why all Starfleet captains either have no hair or too much hair!

kes the sweet lil ocampa

Well, this is what happens when you don't use your oil of olay everyday.

Allronix

We don't have bumps - your race uses a sander.

Vicki

The Universal HMO considers facial bumps strictly cosmetic and therefore not a covered benefit.

Michael Lewis

I hit my head when I died on last week's episode.

Michael Lewis

That beam in sequence ate all the special effects budget. All we had left was a candy wrapper and a can of spray paint.

Haesan

Why are you the only species that doesn't have any?

erik

Maybe a godlike race seeded humanoid genomes throughout the galaxy. Or maybe the makeup people are just lazy.

Corja

Don't ask. I beat my head on the bulkhead trying to figure it out.

Phil Bruce

how else do you expect us to fit into clothes designed for two arms and two legs

Farnell

Okay! I admit it! I'm human, I just fell asleep on the Waffle Iron...

gurglesplat

Why is it that humans are so smooth?

Cmdr. Solomon

Well, Gym Quirk has a lot to answer for, doesn't he.

Chloe Jade

The Creators are running out of ideas. We can't all be blobs, either.

Nightshades

Well! At least we have facial lumps!

EvilDevil

Censorship filters... my face was actually like George W. Bush

Dr. Jonas Bashir

We Simplonians do not discuss that with strangers...

Dr. Jonas Bashir

Ask Darwin or God, your choice.

Dr. Jonas Bashir

You call them bumps, I call them intestines.

kes the lil sweet ocampa

It was either this or being the son you never knew you had...

Latin From Manhattan

Because, in addition to your Universal Translater, you also have Optical Illusion Filter contact lenses on your eyeballs, which lets you see all alien lifeforms as human regardless of how we really look.

melissa hards

why is it that every time i get brought aboard one of your darn ships, your transporters erase my other three heads?

Eric

Who says this is my face?

Sesspit

Quirk happens.

MindMelda

The rest of us are so far ahead of you, we put in speed bumps.

gp

Stop insulting me - or you'll all get some facial bumps.

david P.

Dont' you read history. Gym Qurik, "a father to all species"!

Necromancer

Automated Ricepickers...

Cmdr. Solomon

The Sev Fleet Assimilation of all non-human looking aliens policy, perhaps?

Hanover Fisk

Need I say it? Our collective brains shrunk.

Hanover Fisk

We've all been rolling our eyes for the last two generations.

John

Have you seen what the rest of me looks like?

Save Ferris

These are age wrinkles--took forever for your stupid transporter to rematerialize me!

The Great Wizzard

Aren't we a bit human-centric again, Captain "Politically Correct"?

Alagar 35

The facial bumps keep us from looking like you uninteresting Sev Fleet idiots.

Phil Price

Maybe they should make aliens with no hair...

8 of 12

It's just all about you, isn't it!?

8 of 12

Oh, and aren't the almighty humans so important!

Michael "The Admiral" Zecca

Is it my fault humans have such flat heads?

Cmdr. Solomon

HEY, Smooth Face, did it ever occur to you that maybe you look like us!

Dan "Thumper" Roberts

Well, it all started when the censors would not allow an exposed belly button...

Will Etienne

No we don't. You all look like us!

K'ec

Bio-technobable.

K'ec

Did you want tusks?

K'ec

We have no facial creams.

Guilherme Silva

A guy named Quirk was our ancerstor too.

Samurai

Humans have facial bumps too----the individual called Measley perhaps?

Seven Of Five

Well you try and find an actor that looks like Species 8472!

ineke

Why do you beam me aboard when you don't even know who I am?

The Penguin Weekly

A long long time ago in a galaxy quite close to home, actually, there was a man named Quirk . . .

The Penguin Weekly

I told you the doorways were too short!

The Penguin Weekly

I am Gar, son of Quirk!

Nisse

We don't. I just fell and hit my head on the way here.

Glorendil

You meant to say that you humans look like us, right?

Phil

You can only mould plasticine so many ways

E

Would you like to investigate my bottom too?

The Penguin Weekly

Creativity is futile.

The Penguin Weekly

Who cares? We're all evil anyways.

The Penguin Weekly

Bumpy foreheads are cheaper if you buy in bulk.

Quantum

We are all sons of a Sevsleet captain, perhaps you've heard of him, captain Gym Quirk?

hejira

You were the only species that thought of raising the doorways.

Ann E. Nichols

Why do earthlings have such boring foreheads?

Ann E. Nichols

This is a clue leading up to a horrifying revelation later in the series.

Delta Flyer

That transploder pad is a little too small!

JM

Try setting your transporter to not standardise, I had fifteen tentacles before I went through that thing!

Eric

Ever since EARTH was discovered we've all been banging our heads against the wall!

Eric

Because humans are the only species whose brains STOP growing!

Eric

WE all have the same Founding Forehead Fathers!

Eric

Because antennae are soooooo 1960's!

Eric

Who says this is my face?

Eric

The Preservers were great pitchers and batters but bad catchers.

Nomad Rebo- Goodbye.

How does the special effects crew make your head bumbs disappear?

Dak

Why do Humans look like us except for the lack of lobes that signify higher brain functions?

Latin From Manhattan

Facial bumps? You're looking at my backside!

Khalas

They broke the mold before they made humans.

Khalas

We got "ears and foreheads", they sold the rights to hair and back of head to Sevylon5.

Petréa Mitchell

We try to be like you but we can't make our brains that small.

talshiarHQ

All others have evolved except you?

JDSandara

Would you like to join us, I have a mallet here.

JDSandara

Correction: You look like us, but without the bumps.

The Great Wizzard

How have you lost your bumps?

Lt. Brad Gentry

Creativity was one of my forefathers' weaknesses.

Art DeBuigny

We all hit our head on the walls trying to learn English.

Corsair

The producers don't want to Alienate anybody.

Trevor Raggatt

You should rather ask why all aliens refer to humans as "Slap-Heads"?

Haesan

Duh! You couldn't SEE the bumps if we put them someplace else!

Captain Sevway

Sev appeal ;)

Leander

Would you rather talk to a pile of goo?

Mike Howell

And, I was going to ask you why you spoke such fluent Gleezbop.

Mike Howell

Aliens speaking English, Earth the paradise, and now really humanoid looking aliens--that's right, it's all about you!

Mike Howell

What do you mean? You all look like *us*!

erik

And you look just like us except for those obviously prosethetic smooth foreheads!

erik

How come every alien looks just like *us* except for a few facial bumps?

JC

Limited makeup budget.
