◊Terra is a science fiction webcomic by the husband-and-wife team Holly Laing and Drew Dailey, telling the story of guerrillas working to put an end to a war between Earth and the Azatoth that has pretty much every other spacefaring race in the galaxy caught in the middle. The comic started on March 20, 2009 and initially updated on Wednesdays. However in October 2013, when Holly announced that the comic would resume after a long hiatus for various reasonsnote Holly's health problems and her and Drew's wedding, she stated that they would now simply be updating once a week whenever she got the page finished.The guerrillas call themselves simply the Resistance, and the comic focuses on four in particular. Grey O'Shea is a Friendly Sniper formerly of the United Earth Coalition Mobile Infantry. His entire unit was killed in an Azatoth ambush, but he was rescued by Resistance Agent Agrippa Varus, a former soldier for the Azatoth who fled The Purge of his family for his father's involvement in the founding of the Resistance. He's gruff, somewhat humorless, and terrifying in hand-to-hand combat, but he's also capable of great compassion. Lieutenant Alexis Hawke and Flight Engineer Rick MacFarlane are a UEC Space Fighter crew shot down by the Resistance and rescued by Grey and Agrippa. Alex, formerly an Azatoth slave, is tough and spunky and has a little bit of UST with Grey, while Rick is a friendly Non-Action Guy and the resident Mr. Fixit. At the moment Alex and Rick just want to get home (the latter has a family to feed back on Earth), and Grey and Agrippa are attempting to get them on a ship to Earth.Terra's art style uses a degree of Cel Shading and is slightly Animesque (the latter noticeable mostly with the female characters, particularly Eve Arlia).Terra was completed in January of 2023, with the author rebooting the setting and characters with Terra Incognita in June of the same year. | |

Aliens Are Bastards/Humans Are Bastards: The Azatoth have Blood Knight tendencies, practice slavery, and most of the antagonist ones seem to have little respect for the concept of civilians. The UEC is an expansionist empire whose upper brass are quite willing to order civilian transports shot down, and according to the codex human terrorists were responsible for sparking the current conflict. | |

Fantastic Rank System | |
| Terra (Webcomic) / int_54451d1 | comment |
Fantastic Rank System: The UEC military is a simplified version of the one used by most Earth militaries in real life, with enlisted Army and Navy using the same names and officers using different ones. The rank system is as follows: Enlisted: Private (E-1), Corporal (E-2), Sergeant (E-3), Chief (E-4) Officers (written Army/Navy): 2nd Lieutenant/Ensign (O-1), Lieutenant/Sub Lieutenant (O-2), Captain/Lieutenant (O-3), Major/Lieutenant Commander (O-4), Lieutenant Colonel/Commander (O-5), Colonel/Captain (O-6), General (O-7) The Asurian Empire's military uses a vaguely Roman-inspired version. A Recruit is New Meat. After three years' satisfactory service they're promoted to Marshal and command a small unit. A Veteran (5 years' satisfactory service) commands small sections generally comprised of 8 Recruits and 3 Marshals (roughly equivalent to a platoon). The Centurian is second-in-command to the Sentinel, who commands four sections. Paladins command full companies. The Consuls advise the Sovereign and are appointed from the Paladins. | |

Grey-and-Gray Morality: The UEC and Asurian Empire are a fairly dark shade of gray. Both are responsible for atrocities, and both feature decent people as Punch Clock Villains. The Resistance are A Lighter Shade of Grey: they're fighting for their homes with the hope of ending the war, but use assassination as one of their main tactics. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
| Terra (Webcomic) / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Agrippa gives Rei a powerful one on page 332. When Rei goes ahead and belittles Alexis' past as a slave, saying a life on the streets was harder, he points out that while Alexis was a house slave, she still suffered greatly: she still has scars from the collar she was forced to wear, her freedom was taken away, and she was considered property. He goes on to add Alexis is one of the people who Rei is going to have to rely upon now that her brother is dead, so she (Rei) had better learn a little courtesy, because "she needs them (the human cast) more than they need her." | |

Proud Warrior Race Guy: The Azatoth, though the exact angle of the trope varies heavily by individual. Agrippa and Talos focus on the "Proud," with a strong sense of personal honor and no tolerance for attacking civilians. Solus is a racist Well-Intentioned Extremist advocating the use of biological warfare against humanity. Catella is pretty much just a fight-happy bitch. | |

The Alliance/La Résistance: The Resistance opposes both sides and was formed when several independent groups linked up under pressure from individuals such as Eve Arlia and Consul Argo Varus. They want to stop the war because the unaligned races and civilians are getting it in the shorts, and because factions on both sides (the military-industrial complex in the UEC, and the Shadow Cabal in the Asurian Empire) have ulterior motives for continuing it. | |

| Terra (Webcomic) / int_d7e68c39 | comment |
Bulletproof Human Shield: On page 243 a mook grabs the corpse of one Alex already shot and killed and uses him to block her fire while he returns it. This set off a brief bout of Wild Mass Guessing in the comments. Eventually Holly put her foot down and pointed out that Alex never actually shot at the body because the mook holding the BHS was quicker on the trigger; therefore whether her rifle fire would or would not penetrate was a moot point. | |

Archaic Weapon for an Advanced Age | |
| Terra (Webcomic) / int_ddcc22c3 | comment |
Archaic Weapon for an Advanced Age: Catella Myrha dual wields a pair of scimitars against people armed with assault rifles. It helps that her armor contains a deflector shield generator that No Sells small arms fire. Melee attacks can penetrate it but she's good enough that this usually isn't an issue. And she pales in comparison to Agrippa, who has never once been seen using a gun (though he's used grenades a few times) and is a One-Man Army. | |

Rubber-Forehead Aliens | |
| Terra (Webcomic) / int_e78aa97d | comment |
Rubber-Forehead Aliens: From here. The Azatoth would be Human Aliens but for a heavier brow ridge, a vertical bulge in the center of the forehead, and eyes with black sclera and irises in all colors of the rainbow. They also average a foot taller than a human of the same gender. Males also have a couple of dark nodules on the sides of their noses. The Vareliens look like asari with longer, more flexible head-tentacles and greener skin. They're later given a redesign which replaces the head-tentacles with white hair. The Shintari have swept-back conical heads and orange skin. There's also the Krull, not listed in the codex but present in the comic. They're a race of humanoid Lizard Folk with horned heads and green skin. | |

Punished for Sympathy | |
| Terra (Webcomic) / int_f770e79d | comment |
Punished for Sympathy: A flashback has Talos Antares try to fake having killed a human civilian to protect her from his immediate superior, Solus Kalar. Solus isn't fooled, hunts down and kills the civilian in cold blood, then starts beating the crap out of Talos. Agrippa, Solus' equal in rank at the time, rescues Talos. | |

Defensive Failure | |
| Terra (Webcomic) / int_fc9c4dfc | comment |
Defensive Failure: Grey finds Rick first, and Rick pulls a gun on him. It's abundantly clear to Grey that Rick is a Non-Action Guy and has never had to use his weapon before and he easily disarms him. Then he gives the gun back handle-first to point out that he's not an enemy. | |
