490 | One, Two, Three O’Clock, Four O’Clock Dock!

August 23, 2010 | 12:02 am, by Pascalle Lepas

Five, six, seven o’clock, eight o’clock dock. In case you are wondering what duck Holly is referring to, remember that the name of the pirate ship is the ‘Ebony Duck.’

Also, there’s an update on Billy the Squid toys.

Have a great week, my little Zaplings! Thanks for reading! Stuff is about to get pretty serious.

    That sunset. Is. Stunning.
    *continues to stare happily*

  • Red sky at night, sailors' delight …

    Probably not accurate in this case. Wonder where Naveed and the Satellites got off to? (Hmm … “Naveed and the Satellites” would make another great band name … )

    :)

    Thar be an exquisite sunset ya did wee lass! Yer art ne're ceases in shiverin me timbers Lepas.

    can't wait to see the hotness again (Naveed)

  • Well the crew may indeed be on their arses… or their faces depending how they fell when Naveed drop-kicked them ^^; Can't wait to see how this plays out.

  • SpringLoaded12

    I always liked the huge smiley face on the stern of the ship.

    “Bet they've been getting their fluffy arses beaten by a furry with a katana that is curved too much and has the hilt of a broadsword!”

  • Kurieo

    But ominous.

  • TailKinker42

    I like the smiley face too… looks very miyazaki to me.

  • Again! Yet another stunningly beautiful page. I actually get distracted from story to stare at scenery. Keep up the good works guys, the art may distract me but I keep coming back for the story.

  • Ghalail

    Actually if you go back to the most recent appearance of Naveed in archive: “Ahoy” and especially “Unlucky Pirates” her katana is very well proportioned and has all the correct characteristics thereof.

    Also I too love the boat smiley!

  • SpringLoaded12

    Ah, I was remembering way back when during the carnival arc when the katana was more the way I described. But then, Zap twisted that one up and stuff, so she must've gotten a new one.

    It's a happy boat!

  • Jerico3289

    Oooooh, I have a really bad feeling about this

  • Given that red sunset I think the Happy Boat ran out of happy today. :)

  • That is one of the best names I've seen for a webcomic page/strip. Genius!

  • Lenvoran

    The droppers coming during the day confuses me… Wouldn't it be something more like part of the year? Or is it angled so that during the day, that side of the planet is going through the asteroid belt first? Hmmm…

  • Marduk

    Beautiful sunset. I so wish i could go to that planet.

  • Negatron

    I don’t mean to nitpick… oh, who the hell am I kidding, of course I do. The katana on both those pages is actually wrong for the very simple reason that it’s blade is straight as a ruler instead of slightly curved, so there =P

  • Don Quixote

    I’ve got Voltaire’s To the Bottom of the Sea album going on since about 10 pages ago
    best music in background evar.

  • Preparing to dock with the Duck! :)

    I’m sure many – possibly most – people here have some other work they are reminded of when seeing the broadly grinning Ebony Duck. For me – and I know I’m showing my age here – that “other work” can only ever be the animated movie, “Heavy Metal”. (R.I.P., John Candy.)

    ;)

  • Green Arrow

    You mean… That her art knocks you unconscious? Now that I think about it, its pretty accurate… ^_^

  • John Smith

    Nice sunset!

  • ReBoot Fan

    And no one mentions the blood stains?

  • Stolen Moment

    They’re more likely to hit the “leading” side of the planet, which (for Earth, anyway), is basically midnight-to-noon.
