I've run with the daydream theme inspired by the art contest. I thought about what name Will would adopt if he were a pirate. At first I thought "Gingerbeard", but then I realised his last name was already close enough to be transmuted easily.

2015-08-18 Rerun commentary: Wow, those are some great camera angles in the last two panels.

It's kind of weird reviewing my own old work, and having the unbidden but genuine reaction of "wow, that's some good work there". I guess that says something about... the consistency of my visual compositional aesthetic sensibilities?
