Can confirm this. If you watch carefully on shows where he has a buttoned shirt, you'll see that his buttons switch sides demonstrating the flip. Consider this moment, and watch the buttons of his shirt. In the first few seconds, he has a standard men's shirt style button arrangement, with the buttons on his right side, and the slots on his left. Then after he says "through the air," the picture reverses. You can see his shirt now appears to have the women's style with buttons on his left and the buttonholes on the right.

Further, since we can assume the image is flipped for the writing portions, we can conclude that Kyle is right handed and he wear's men's shirts. Note that when he appears right-handed, his markings are not lettering, but rather images that can be understood in reverse, like a rectangle.

My oldest son's 5th birthday is in a few days. We're having a Mario-themed party. Would you draw Mario uppercutting Bowser? For theme music, I like the theme song to The Price Is Right.

This is amazing! I'm going to print it out as big as I can and display it proudly! It's going to make my handmade decorations look so terrible by comparison. =)

In case OP doesn't answer, I'll step in with some thoughts:

What if an alien god has manifested in a way that is incompatible with Christian teachings?

The bible is the primary source for the Christian's understanding of God. The bible is written to mankind, and offers a salvation plan to man alone, to the exclusion of animals or what have you. Perhaps God has related himself differently to an alien race, and has even provided a different form of salvation to them. That would be cool. Ultimately, though, Christianity doesn't really apply to a nonhuman race.

What if they claim God would never send his son to die for our sins

It's unlikley they'd say that about us, but maybe it's true for them. Wouldn't change anything for mankind, as God definitely sent Jesus to die for our sins (per the bible).

What if their God is actually a woman, or sexless?

God's image is definitely man-like (per the Bible), from mankind's perspective. But there's no reason why God couldn't manifest himself in a sexless manner to a sexless race to illustrate a different aspect of His character.

What if their culture has never manifested violence at all?

It would indicate a different plan for them. Perhaps they tell the story of God's creation that never went wrong.

C. S. Lewis wrote a science fiction trilogy that begins with Out of the Silent Planet, which plays with the idea of other planets being populated with the sinless, but Earth being populated with sinners.

So a sinless planet would be awesome, no doubt. But humanity's story is one of sin, failure, and redemption. God uses our story to illustrate His simultaneous justice and mercy. A perfect planet would illustrate something else about God.
