Description
Full view it if you can't read it!It's just a little random observation that popped into my head while I was watching some Invader Zim. It was also an excuse to practise drawing Dib.
If you don't get the comic here's a boring explanation:
In the episode Future Dib, In the scene after Gaz death threats Robot Dib if he does anything weird, Dib attempts to hack into the Irken Operating system. BUT. He says "I hope they use the same operating system as me" and he gets in. Most likely Dib doesnt have really any Irken programing (he doesnt have Tak's ship yet), So that must mean the Irkens use some kind of Earth computer operating system... for example, Windows . xDD
... I found it kinda funny.

It's pretty old now, but I've heard that whole bit was a riff on the "Independence Day" movie, where an invasion of earth is thwarted because the good guys are able to hack into a COMPLETELY ALIEN computer system using a powerbook and from there upload a virus that destroys the aliens' entire defense. So Dib's lampshading how illogical the idea is, while banking on it working out for him anyway.
I like your take on it too, with the incredulity in the final panel. In the episode he's pretty blase about it working out just like that.

Really? Ha! No, you should've had them use Vista. Vista sucks and would've been thrice as easy to hack as Win7. Still, massive luls.
(Sidenote on programming: Electricity always works the same way, computers at their cores work the same way, programming any Irken technology is pretty much just a question of knowing how to read Irken, 'specially cos they have absolutely no security at all. I'S GON' PROGRAM THE IRKENS TO DO THE CHICKEN DANCE! quick, somebody teach me to read irken ROFLS - Rolling on the Floor Spastically.)

Don't you realize that IZ is in the future? Like...REEEEEAAAALLLY FAR in the future? Besides, Dib is to awesome to use Windows. It probably died off long ago anyway. But I do see your point. It's to huge a coincidence.

I had a similar reaction to this scene. Nice work on the picture.

The idea of Irkens using the same operating system as us amused me when watching the episode.
But THIS amuses me waaaaay more!
I love the set up of this comic - brilliant work!
