FunkyTuba:
sorry for the double reply...
The first thing I thought of when I saw Alice in the last panel was this:
Intensive Porpoise provided by the amazing Angela Melick of Wasted Talent

--- Quote ---If she isn't lying, then she believes all AI's vanished. If she is an AI, she doesn't know it. And she is smart, and has had 5000 years to wonder how her body got so awesome. She would know. She did mention a biotech faction that made wonderful things, strong enough to be evenly matched with the techno faction. I can only assume she is one of them, the biotech constructs.

On the whole Jeph seems pretty savvy about science so unless we're tossing real world science out the window and adopting Marvel Comics physics "biological" based lifeforms cannot morph armor with visors out of nowhere and more specifically survive molten lava temperatures. Unless we're introducing force fields or some kind of crystalline based lifeform which seems unlikely since they ingest carbon based food. Alice and Sedna are obviously lab grown or manufactured constructs, they have to be. Her hair grows so there's obviously some kind of repair/maintenance going on. Whether she and Sedna are crystalline, carbon or metal based tech is irrelevant they are artificial life constructs. The only reason (I can see) they would not have wiped out in the blink with the other AI was some sort of mentality detection and if they were advanced enough or close enough to human mentality (and they are) they made the cut. But physically they are super advanced constructs and still essentially self aware robots.

No Alice and Sedna don't HAVE to be lab grown constructs. They could be highly modified naturally born humans. They could be a divergent evolutionary form that occured from breeding programs and genetic manipulation by the bio-faction humans. They could be demi-gods. They could be aliens. They could be a LOT of things.

Butts, mostly.

One of my readings of that is that the "new stars" are in fact all the orbital habitats.
