'''''Wayward Sons''''' is a [[Web Comic]] written by Benny R. Powell (aka Wizbenny), that while mainly sci-fi, contains elements from multiple genres. Though it begins with the Pantheans having just prevailed in a bloody civil war, things go quickly awry while the Pantheans attempt to imprison the traitorous Kronos and a multitude of monstrous intergalactic criminals.
 
Now the crew of the ''Ulympea'', led by Captain Suras, must do whatever it takes to stem a full-scale prison break. What happens next, however, is completely unexpected, and the planet they end up visiting will never be the same again...
 
Can be found [http://waywardsons.keenspot.com/ here]. As of July 2020, the most recent update is a promise to return in "late 2015" - we are assuming that the strip is defunct.
