Is it just me or did his voice change a bit for this comic? The aliens seem less pointedly peculiar

No, I read it that way too. Every line except "maybe I do, maybe I don't" sounds more robotic.

I also enjoyed the animated series, but this comic strip isn’t animated.

What did the “voice” say?

The word voice does not always refer to something audible. When describing writing, voice refers to the author's tone, word choice, rhythm, point of view, and so on.

I pity people this stupid. People with this level of stupidity is why Trump is president. Again.

It’s news to me that this strip received a cartoon deal. And the voice said “your intentional misrepresentation of my words was humorous.”

I’m nearly paralyzed by the irony
