    One assumes the ‘R-r-r-right, of course! How…’ balloon was supposed to point at Magda?

      It’s pointing at the bits of her that are already in HAMMERHEAD’s mouth.

        “I will tell you why; so shall my anticipation prevent your discovery, and your secrecy to the King and queene: deep-fry no bawkbagok. I have of late, (but wherefore I know not) gained all this girth, forgone all custom of exercises; and indeed, it goes so heavily with my disposition; that this goodly frame the earth, seems to me a puerile buffet; this most excellent rotisserie at the fair, look you, this brave o’er hanging spit, this majestical grill, fretted with golden fire: why, it appeareth no other thing to me, than a foul and savory panoply of ashes. ‘What a heap of meals is a man! How piquant in seasoning, how delectable in sapidity! In swarms and fleeing how oily and palatable! In traction how like an angler! in suspension how like a cod! To the foodie of the world? The paragon of entrees! And yet to me, what is this quintessence of gusto? Man delights not me; no, nor Woman neither; though by your smiling you seem to say so.”

            I’m still giggling like a maniac over Sharkspear. If there’s ever another character conscription for the comic’s cast, we need to figure out a way to make him happen.

    I would have figured Hammerhead’s race can breath both water and air just fine, provided it’s still breathable and/or not polluted.

      There is no “I” in “TEAM,” but there is definitely “MEAT.”

        There may be no “I” in “team,” but Hammerhead strongly implies that there is a “u” in meat…

        There’s no I in team, but there is an I in pie. As in meat pie. And if you rearrange the letters of meat you get team.

    Ah the wonders of evolution.
    Now we just wait for it to make use land dolphins to fight the land sharks.
    Hop to it!

      Landolphins would be so epic.

      Organized headbutt squads to fight the landsharks while chanting their battle cry: “Excuse me, pardon me.”

      I’m surprised Hammerhead is holding salt there in the last panel. I would’ve taken him as more of a paprika kind of guy.

    That second to last evolution…. I hope it was a short one.

      If landsharks evolved from sharkrillas, why are there still sharkrillas?

      Oh GOD, WHY are there still sharkrillas?

    Magda appears to be an amazing ventriloquist, to be able to make Hammer-head speak her lines for her! :D

      Why is she even there at all? Not that I don’t like her, but the question is for Hammerhead….. I bet he can’t read.

        A land shark stopping to learn to read?

        Oh well, that generates more questions (like whoever did those neat “Deep Raiders” tats on them).

          Landsharks don’t learn how to read because they won’t stop eating the books. I think the only way to focus their attention of learning how to read would be to teach them with cookbooks.
