Meanwhile, in the online webcomic "Schlock Mercenary", a fleet of networked
AIs is working to rescue billions of newly liberated prisoners from their
doomed prison modules, now falling toward the inner sun of a former Dyson
Sphere shattered by the opening shots in a galactic war triggered by an
improved spacedrive technology.
