Made an account so I could thank the Murderbot creators for including indigenous practices/cultures/themes in their futuristic sci-fi. Thinking of sticking around for the Murderbot fandom. I am participating!

I didn't think you would, you all seem pretty proud of your skills! Would be a shame not to use them!

Wanted to do a silly picture and accidentally killed Mensah? Woops! Exit Strategy AU were she dies, I guess? Also, there's nothing in the text that says she isn't Aboriginal 🪃 #TheMurderbotDiaries #Mensah #fanart

I have ONE LAST ACHIEVEMENT in the Dunwall Trials to crack and then I'll have every achievement in the game.... Seriously though I love it so much. Corvo, Jessamine, Emily, Billie... okay I don't care much for Daud or the Outsider but eh. The story! The worldbuilding! The painterly design!

I am seated and so excited to see what you’ve come up with! Thank you art team! And thank you for being curious and willing to take a chance on a less conventional Murderbot!

Very excited to see another adaptation! You're treating us so well. I wonder what next, action figures? Picture book? Jaime Jones illustrated version of Exit Strategy and Platform Decay? A torus themed restaurant? It's nice to see this all happening in front of me and be a part of it.

The Murderbot graphic novel team: @ericaschultz42.bsky.social has done everything in comics, vast experience, huge heart, Inkpot (lifetime achievement) winner. She’s tough, a bit stoic, humane. My first choice for Murderbot. So glad we got her. www.kickstarter.com/projects/cos...

It was really nice to wake up and read it! Especially on a site where communication is limited. It makes me ☺️ 🥰 to see someone be open and interested in understanding other perspectives. Especially ones counter to the status quo! 🥰☺️💖✨

Just really cool to see different perspectives and concerns heard and thought about, no matter end result. 🫂💙

(and just in general it is so cool to see scifi where nonwhite is normalised and nonwhite cultures have continued to survive and humans are still multicultural! It’s something I don’t think is seen often in sci fi and I love when it is!) (Thank you for listening 🫂💖✨)

ESE @exitstrategyeffect.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
2/2 Because of how respectful the story is on its status as a slave, I think having it be non-white only enhances the complexity and adds to the visual imagery of finding its place and community. It’s really exciting to see that kind of story told. (I like the cheek bones!)

ESE @exitstrategyeffect.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
I don’t want you to feel piled on but on a personal level - it would mean a lot to me to see a non-white murderbot. When I read the books I am reminded of the stolen generation in Aboriginal Australia and how it feels to try and reconnect with your people. (In this case - that would be PresAux) 1/2

I’d like to say: if you want an androgynous Murderbot, don’t worry, that’s always been our aim for the graphic novel. Our art team are still tweaking and experimenting. But our aim is definitely *not* male presenting. #Murderbot

My cover for the #murderbot big bang! I paired with my friends Vel and Allie who wrote a delightful space mission fic with Murderbot, Three and ART. This is picture 1 of 2 but the 2nd wont be revealed until the last chapter. archiveofourown.org/works/92934071 Ligne Claire inspired.

It's so weird. I've been both interviewed and interviewed people who have brought in a coffee or similar drink with them. Even a bottle of water is fine and normal - although it's pretty standard to have some water and glasses available since people get nervous... if it's not alcoholic, go for it?

I’m gonna throw up from excitement. I love artwork and seeing different styles. This looks so painterly and amazing. More Mensah! Then return of Overse and Volescu! Potential that if it’s successful enough - exit strategy/platform decay????? 🤞🏼🤞🏼💖✨🥺🥰

Signed up and so excited I’m going to collapse. Im hoping for the hopper “both entered at same time” scene and Mensah pretending to be SecUnits hostage and the two of them talking in the corporate rim and omg cubicle scene
