Oo, Wuul, and Frinxil

Five rows of panels, each row made up of a single panel.

1 - Mars.  An endless marscape near the Gale Crater spans off into the distance (let's say something like this).  There's nothing going on.  No dialogue.

2 - Repeat panel.  The difference is that the the Curiosity Rover is driving along in the distance, going from left to right.  It's maybe a third of the way across the panel.  Its tracks are visible behind it.  No dialogue.

3 - Repeat panel.  Curiosity is about two thirds of the way across.  No dialogue.

4 - Repeat panel.  Curiosity has gone off-panel.  Only its tracks remains.  No dialogue.

5 - This panel is actually the continuation of the above image, simply divided by the gutter.  Two Martians, Oo and Wuul, stand looking towards the tracks in the distance.  They're tall and spindly.  They have redsih skin, wearing simple clothing that does little to offset them from the marscape around them.

OO: <The Earthlings are back again.  I guess they just couldn't get enough of looking at our rocks the first three times.>

Oo is a very sarcastic Martian who is kind of sick of Earthlings periodically sending robots to his planet to ultimately break down and do nothing.  Wuul isn't quite as upset about the whole thing, but he knows when to stay quiet.

And while I like this script and character, I recognize that it isn't a lot to go on, so I came up with a companion piece to it.

Five rows of panels, each row made up of a single panel.

1 - Venus.  An endless venuscape spans off into the distance (let's say something like this).  There's nothing going on.  No dialogue.

2 - Repeat panel.  Also nothing.  No dialogue.

3 - Repeat panel.  Still nothing.  No dialogue.

4 - You know the drill.

5 - This panel is actually a continuation of the above image, simply divided by the gutter.  A single Venusian, Frinxil, stands looking towards the emptiness in the distance.  He holds a futuristic holographic-tablet-type thing that reads "Curiosity Successfully Lands on Mars!", maybe with an accompanying picture.  Frinxil looks kind of sad.

FRINXIL: <Why don't they ever come here?>

The first script is very much inspired by the Curiosity Rover (no kidding!), and O and Wuul are perhaps a bit lackluster or light in detail, but I actually really like Frinxil.  I see her as a pretty smart and capable Venusian, but she's also the only one, which makes her a little lonely, to say the least.  However, she seems to have some pretty advanced technology, so maybe she won't always have to be alone?
