Patrick Sinnott drew this handsome commission of Doctor Kalakaperi, IT Specialist (or maybe “it” specialist) for the Bureau.  He has a wonderful fantasy webstrip, also, at https://www.inkandrubbish.com/LaxLegends/ about a conflicted knight and a zombie.  And beautiful monsters on his Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hence_boog/ .

Dr. K was supposed to be inspired by the alien pfifltrigg from C.S. Lewis’ SF novel, Out of the Silent Planet.  Although I skipped the insectoid aspects and ended up with something more like a bandicoot.  https://www.bureauofbeasties.com/comic/2022/3/1/it-specialist If you google ‘pfifltrigg’ images, you’ll see some more unsettling interpretations.
