'''The Alien''' first appeared in the [[Old-Timey]] era to [[The Homestar Runner]], presumably after his [[Wikipedia:Unidentified Flying Object|UFO]] crashed into a factory.  He later conversed with [[Limozeen]] [[Limozeen: "but they're in space!"|in space]] on an unidentified planet.  Both of these appearances were introduced in the [[Strong Bad Email]] [[4 branches]].

The Alien is a humanoid with pincers instead of hands, horn-shaped ears, and three eyes that blink sequentially. He frequently complains about the lack of Earth amenities on his home planet and has been accused by both The Homestar Runner and [[Mary Palaroncini]] of being a [[Wikipedia:Communism|communist]].

'''Rumble Red''' is an [[alien]] who first appeared in the [[Old-Timey]] era to [[The Homestar Runner]], presumably after his [[Wikipedia:Unidentified Flying Object|UFO]] crashed into a factory.

Rumble Red is a humanoid with pincers instead of hands, horn-shaped ears, and three eyes that blink sequentially. He frequently adds the word "rumble" after or during sentences. He also often mentions the lack of Earth amenities (such as [[polymascotfoamalate]] and [[Decemberween]]) on his home planet, which The Homestar Runner finds very annoying. [[Old-Timey Marzipan]] doesn't appear to like Rumble Red either, as she appears to [[Death|kill him]] with a [[Old-Timey Marzipan's Contraption|Decemberween gift]] in [[Decemberween Short Shorts]].

He has been accused by both The Homestar Runner and [[Mary Palaroncini]] of being a [[Wikipedia:Communism|communist]] fool. (During the 20th century, the term "red" was a derogatory slang word for communists.) This is later referenced in the [[Strong Bad Email]] [[mini-golf]], in which a scorecard from "Rumble Red's <s>Kommunist</s> Kozmik Bowling" is seen.

Rumble Red's planet doesn't have much. According to him, it has long lines and expensive [[bread]]. This references the [[Russia|Soviet Union]] after the economic reforms of the 1980s, when the Soviets had to stand in extremely long lines to receive their rations, and when staple foods like bread were scarce, and therefore expensive to procure.

As the Brothers Chaps discuss in the DVD commentary for [[4 branches]], he was inspired by the 1956 cartoon ''{{wp|Destination Earth}}'', in which a Martian visits Earth and learns about petroleum and free-market capitalism. Rumble Red may also be a parody of {{wp|The Great Gazoo}} from ''{{wp|The Flintstones}}'' or {{wp|Marvin the Martian}} from ''[[Looney Tunes]]''.
