ASSASSIN BABE

Sometimes you have to take the law into your own hands on the MadHop.

Assassin Babe.

A VIGILANTE IS LOOSE ON THE GIANT SPACESHIP
There's over one hundred thousand people on board the MadHop but it's still not that easy to hide, even though the colossal vessel is as long as a freeway. Nevertheless "Assassin Babe", as the muck raking channel Bazooka TV has nicknamed her, has eluded every attempt at capture. Who is this incredible masked woman? She has so far maimed or assassinated six "undesirables", all of them noted for their abject treatment of females. Little wonder then that the captain of the ship has hired a squad of elite bodyguards.

Who is this masked avenger?

Why does Ronnie Bazook find it all so hilarious?

ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD

Uh oh, watch out for sex with smooth talking alien bastards.

Zool tries to console Honey about the pregnancy.

ENTER A HYBRID ALIEN-HUMAN BABY.
HONEY BAZOOK is seriously traumatised when she discovers that she is going to have a hybrid alien-human baby, something that was supposed to be a complete impossibility. That's what Zool the Zoo-o-light assured her. But the grand slammer is when Honey discovers that she is not going to be delivering a normal healthy screaming human child but a large blue alien egg, which will require months of incubating! Not to mention, ouch, what the reaction of her husband Billy Bazook is going to be like. Which is certain to motivate his big fat brother Ronnie to go totally ballistic as well. Then they'll both want to rip her Scottish head off.

Honey freaks!

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE HAS ITS ADVANTAGES

MICROBOTS make terrific spies.

These nosey maintenance bots are as small as mice.

THOUSANDS OF ROBOTS are are flat out on the MadHop doing a zillion things 24/7, from domestic cleaning chores to heavy-duty maintenance patrols inside the fusion reactor.

A computer with soul

All ruled over benevolently by the A.I. quantum computer, only the second one ever built, which has unexpectedly, amazingly, become sentient, after the ship survives traveling through the Vortex, an awesome dark matter maelstrom of titanic proportions. Where the quantum molecular core of the A.I. was bombarded with anti-neutrinos and left spin tachyons of an ultra intense and extremely spiritual kind. However, the computer has wisely kept very quiet about all this. Only Dinky and Maggot, it's two human children friends, have any idea. But the beautiful golden aliens are becoming suspicious, whom bots have observed in detail plotting to "take over the starship from the pathetic humans".

ZOO-O-LIGHT TECHNOLOGY.

Walk sexy and carry a big stick?

THE AMAZING ZOO-O-LIGHTS have a distaste for wearing too many clothes and a disdain for most technology. One thing that never leaves their sides, however, are these strange cylinder shaped devices, which reputably have over 20,000 uses, (only some of them naughty), from brushing teeth or zapping enemies, to subatomic morphing of hyper-granite compounds.

Is this the alien version of a Swiss Army knife?

Now you know why it's not a good idea to get Lustra angry.

STARSCRAPER CITY

Starscraper City is what they call the twin rows of high-rises at the front of the ship, where all the colonists live.

The ship is like a high-tech city flying through space, complete
with cops, criminals, great bars, shopping malls, the works.

FORTY-TWO MILES LONG, the UNICS Madison Hopkins is armed to the teeth and designed to impress, so if warlike aliens turn up they’ll have second thoughts about messing with Earth.

Starscraper City apartments were carefully designed to provide the

best conditions possible for enduring sixteen years in deep space.

Starscraper City soaked up the abilities of the world’s greatest architects and interior designers. The corridors and boulevards and malls are studded with magnificent artifacts reflecting the cultures of Earth, from Polynesia to ancient Egypt. Admiral Jack’s palatial office even includes Van Goghs and a Matisse.

Made from black steel, the hardest substance known to science, the sixty
storey starscrapers have panoramic views of the galaxy. It's five miles from
port to starboard and the domes halfway are the location of the Earth Park.

The spear shaped front of the ship includes Starscraper City, the biosphere Earth Park, the second quantum computer ever made, over one hundred factories, the cryogenic facilities, hydro-farms, command centres, a stadium, and the space marines and starship crew barracks. Twenty-five miles of massive dropships are next, linked together like railway boxcars and stacked to the rafters with one hundred years supplies for a brave new world, from kitset nanochip fabs to fusion reactors and micro breweries. The Fusion Power Division at the stern has eight hundred workers under rotation, maintaining and operating the temperamental stardrives and their mighty exhausts, which occupies the last seven miles of the starship. The Gravity Generator Division is another big employer with more than five hundred on staff and the Cryogenics and the Science Divisions also provide hundreds of jobs for the colonists. Many of whom operate their own businesses, running restaurants, nightclubs, bars and stores, etc.

The giant fusion drives at the rear take up seven miles of the MadHop.
