Ah, lame computer jokes. Which reminds me, ReBoot is available for streaming here: http://www.shoutfactorytv.com/series/reboot

Don’t know ReBoot? Watch the show! But not the Guardian Code, it’s junk.

When last we saw our heroes: Vindalf was trapped in a lifeboat with the Sargent and the worst privateer in town! And still is! Don’t forget to follow me, and enable notifications or you might never find out if anything happens!

How did I draw that sunrise and sunset? 2006 me should have taken notes or something.

<spoilers> the main character doesn’t die </spoilers>

The reason I don’t like iApple is because for the entire time I was in school, the schools had iApple computers we had an IBM at home. The IBM was consistently better at everything than the school computers. Even when the school got the newest high-tech colours of iMac and I still had a 5 year old IBM.

Homework? IBM. Internet? IBM. Games? <a href=“https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rjpn3L3bSJQ“> Photoshop isn’t a game, mac. </a>

Remember these guys? when I originally made these comics (and had my own website), I was updating regularly. Also, I really needed to emphasise how long the characters were stuck in that boat. So we had a commercial break.

I think I also installed some minor computer upgrades around this time.

We…we are main characters… right?

Don’t mess with someone who is wiling to blast one of your NPCs as a warning shot. It probably means they’re a main character and not afraid of you.

You CAN drink lake ontario water… but you probably shouldn’t. You might have fared better hundreds of years ago when it was cleaner.

He still thinks it was a good trade. He’s a terrible pirate.

So there we were at Pennsic many moons ago, a conglomerate of Vikings and pirates, inexplicably armed with laser swords, wandering around when we come upon a ship! Someone had an awesome camp gate that looked like a pirate ship. So we begin the raid and the defenders respond with rum. They trade Darth-tagnan’s sword for a bottle of good rum. The still believes it was a good trade. I’m not sure what happened to our other companion, but in the end, we had no ship and fewer swords.

Later, we found out that another camp armed with lightsabers did manage to raid the ship. That comes up again later.

The first panel used up everything I actually know about pirates. The last panel proves that there is no joke too lame for Vindalf.

Around this time, I think @lledra showed me how to use the colour options in photoshop. It would be some time before I got around to applying it to the main character. I envision Vindalf wearing a Norman style helmet and chainmail. How does one draw chainmail? (spoilers: I figure it out around issue 237.)
