Well look at that.  They found each other!

LAST PAGE is on Tuesday!  And then I’m probably going to have to release printed volumes.  Also, there might be a short intermission in the regular updating schedule.  I’ll try not to let it go too long, and hopefully I’ll have some cool little extra comics to post here instead.  I’ll figure it out and let you all know!

Skull King lands conveniently close to a pile of marbles.  David is so forgetful!

Two more pages and the issue is finished!  Rad!

The Captain has quite a title going at this point.  He just keeps taking on new forms!  This is his best one yet, because he has gained some mobility.  Who knows if it’s the crab or Skull King who decides where to go, though (probably the Skull King).

In other news, there are only 3 pages left and then Issue #1 is all done!  Will David and his captain reunite?  What will happen to the ship?  Is the Sea Horse gone for good?  Honestly, I don’t think I can fit all of that in!  Don’t worry though, it’ll come together and set up for Issue #2 nicely.  I’m sure of it!

The Skull King makes some friends at the bottom of the sea.  I drew it in a lot more detail than you can really make out in this size.

Here is a full size version (without shading, which is done at a low resolution and looks really weird and distracting up close).  I think my process could use some tweaking, but I think after this issue I’m just going to do single color shading.

Alright, that’s enough outta me!  See you on Thursday!

That crazy Skull King.  He knows how to take care of himself; but will he manage to get his ship back?

Here is today’s page!  Right on time.  I actually didn’t think I’d make it!

Anyway, it looks as if we’re going to see what the good King is up to.  You’ll have to find out on Thursday!

Now we know where we are, I guess.  Doesn’t look like a very nice place though.

Sorry the comic was late!  I went to Chicago last night to see POLYSICS.  It was a very fun show, and totally worth the 8-hour round trip!  I’m exhausted now, even after sleeping all day trying to recuperate.

David is finally reunited with his piles of treasure.  Things are almost getting back to normal!

Check out his ninja mask breathing device though.  He is such a clever guy, isn’t he?

Hey guys!  Here is today’s comic.  Really, David can’t help but constantly find or re-find his treasure.  Especially the marbles.

How to play David’s marble game, which he calls “Half and Half”:

1. Draw a big circle on the ground, with a line drawn of the diameter of the circle
2. Dump a bunch of marbles onto one half of the circle
3. Flick marbles into the circle one by one, aiming to hit the other marbles over to the other side of the circle
4. The game is over when all of the marbles are on one side of the circle.

Here’s today’s page!  Enjoy!

If you saw the secret bonus sketch edition of the page, you might notice that I changed some things a little bit (other than cleaning them up and inking them, obviously).  If you didn’t see the secret bonus sketch edition… I have no idea what that is either.
