Lemme tell ya. You put a sharpened hook in for an eye replacement, and NO ONE questions your authority. Except Von Carnaj, I guess.

      Oh oh! “Let me axe you a question!”… Hmm… Naah old, Oh oh!
      “i SAW you!” – said while cutting a guy in half with a chainsaw.

      “Let’s get to the ROOT of the problem!” – said when dealing with evil tree spirits.

      “Good thing his BARK was worse than his bite!” – same thing :)

      “The bullet train is leaving…” – said when you grab a bullet in mid-air, throw it back towards the shooter and manages to kill him with it…. What? My rouge/assassin got a almost max agillity so he should be able to do it! ;) ^^

      Yeah, there are an enormous number of Peter Pan references piling up here. Who’s thinking he didn’t kidnap the kids for ransom, he did it so he could have his own ‘lost boys,’ especially if he’s found some magic that would make them never grow up?

        I don’t know if you realized how much more creepy you have made this when you wrote that post. Then again, maybe he has a mansion with a roller coaster. Those are rad.

            If you were around for the Michael Jackson trial then you’ve had them too. And your mind’s eye can’t ever unsee them.

    Hookeye – noun
    1. a two-piece clothes fastener, usually of metal, consisting of a hook that catches onto a loop or bar.
    2. a three-piece latching device consisting of a hook attached to a screw eye or an eyebolt and a separate screw eye or eyebolt that the hook engages as it bridges a gap, as one between a door and a jamb or a gate and a gatepost.
    3. Also called eyehook. the two-piece portion of such a device consisting of a hook and a screw eye.

    Then again, “Cap’n Screw-eye” wouldn’t have fit the Peter Pan thing. And how many DM’s can resist running with a good bad pun?

          Sweetness and light!

          I shall be forever immortalized by . . . wait, it doesn’t actually MEAN anything does it?

          Still though, I sorta feel honoured to be singled out like that. (And it’s bitchin’ that I found this comic in it’s early days)

          Keep up the good work!

    Love the pirates, and as a side note, the ad on the top of the page makes me laugh every time I see it. “I MAKE MORE MONEY THAN GOD”

    . . . Couldn’t some latch something onto his eye and drag him around by his eye-socket?

      Assuming that the hook is inserted via glass eye ball mechanism.
      if it is only attached via eyepatch, it’d theoretically be ~pawsible~ . . . but unlikely, as it could easily be slipped off or the strap cut.

        If it was that poorly anchored then it would likely fall out under its own weight.
        It would need to be somewhat securely fixed in order to avoid falling out… Last I checked, most metals in a fantasy setting are not of the lightweight variety… and those that are tend to be expensive due to being magic.
