I haven't given my reasons for being disappointed with alice grove because it seemed a bit rude to specifically criticise some of the things a lot of people enjoy about the strip. it did however seem pertinent to illustrate that not all of mr. Jacques existing fans enjoy or are satisfied with alice grove.
my other post, the one in the thread about how many people are reading alice grove is a perfectly reasonable statement for that discussion. the fact that it is basically the same as the sentiments I expressed in this thread is neither here nor there.

All of the above!
But seriously, I have no idea and all of those seem equally possible.

An energy field (at least, those we know of) would not block light. A vapor or particle cloud is possible, but if so, it is probably harmless. And why is it shaped as a humanoid? My guess is that it is just a scarecrow, set up to scare explorers away. The preserve the inhabitants live in, must have natural barriers or other means of stopping them from leaving.
Also, the forest below the scarecrow looks quite impenetrable. This makes me think of Strip #1, which shows the same impenetrable forest on the other side of the dirt road.
Someone has gone to great lengths to isolate the inhabitants from the outside world...
