6-panel-comic by War and Peas. Panel 1: The thirsty NASA scientist is trying on a dress in a fitting room. A store clerk stands outside and asks, “Miss, how’s the dress?” Panel 2: The woman steps out in a little black dress and says, “Fine, but it’s not really the look I’m going for.” Panel 3: The clerk asks, “What look are you going for?” Panel 4: With an excited expression and wide eyes, the woman replies, “Lonely scientist gets whisked away by a ZØR$H‡X!-ian prince…” Panel 5: She continues passionately, “...who’s never seen a woman before and is overcome with lust!” Panel 6: The clerk, now slightly disturbed but professional, responds, “Maybe, I have something in the back,” as he walks away. She continues, "She's nervous at first, but he proves to be well-versed in the art of lovemaking."

A digital collage titled "Thirsty Scientist Starter Pack" features various items associated with a sci-fi and science aesthetic. Items include a black slip dress, round glasses, a bottle of "Alien" perfume by Mugler, a telescope, a DVD box set of the "Alien Quadrilogy," a book about H.R. Giger, a poster reading "I WANT TO BELIEVE" with an image of a UFO, and a green, textured alien-like sculpture. The background is light green, and the text is in a bold, futuristic font with a purple outline.
