    1st comment!! :) Love the crew’s acceptance of Zap being the captain now! What’s going on with William & Holly back there?? Very excited for this last story arc. :)

  • LynUn

    Not fair Holly. The fan girls aren’t going to be happy with you!

  • Jake Frost

    The pirate got her booty. ;D

    ….and it’s sweet that Zap is accepted as their Captain and all….yeah.

  • safyrejet

    Zap knows how to pick his battles. Don’t bother fighting your friends over whether they’re going along to help you, save your fighting energy for Gunner.

    Holly, it wasn’t exactly any “we” doing the saving. That was pretty much all Reona. But we know you went along with her for support, even though she also told y’all she was going alone at first.

    I totally squeeed over the last two panels. Zap, Reona, you two are so cute, but sorry, William and Holly steal that scene. ^_^

  • safyrejet

    I dunno, I kinda fangirl over William but I love that Holly’s got a hold of him. They’re so cute together.

  • They both deserve a little comfort! Their dad’s died.

  • Holly steals every scene!!

  • Anon3000

    Not long now.

    Not too many webcomics finish after so many years, and with this kind of style. Congrats, Pascalle and Chris.

  • holykittensbatman

    There’s just so many things showing how far Zap! has come and it makes me damn near cry:

    1) Zap’s calling “XR” by his ‘true name,’ instead of the ‘Robot’ moniker he came up with himself.
    2) Grontar (and Robot) had the hardest time accepting Zap as Captain, and here he is, showing how much he respects him now.
    3) Zap’s face because he knows that it’s taken Grontar a long time to accept as captain.
    4) Holly you little minx you.

  • anonynony

    As a red-headed pirate captain should.

  • Astralfury

    Damnit! I saw The comic and rushed to comment along the lines of “Like all pirates Holly is taking her share of the booty first! ” but you beat me to it >. <

  • Thanks! I’m so glad you guys enjoy it.

  • Darkoneko Hellsing

    I know it’s an important point and the story and all, but… all I can think is… Molly what are you doing ? :D

  • Jorge L. Carreras Jr.

    Knocking boots and getting her booty is what I’m thinking, and damn good timing too.

  • 4th panel has the best face ever. :D

  • Darkoneko Hellsing

    Nothing like the night before a huge operation

  • I expect William x Holly fanart! *taps foot impatiently*

  • A true pirate never lets good booty go to waste.

  • Oh, you’ve got like 50 pages left to read!

  • This page is so important! As are the next two!

    Jeeze, I can’t believe it’s finally here!

  • You know, you gotta make time for relationships.

  • Kindra Coates

    Awww, and go Holly!

  • Psychic Shorts

    Lookit da bloke we just got done savin tellin us he don’t need our help!

    LOL…Holly…you win ALL the awesomes. Now go rox William’s soxs off. ^_~

  • Psychic Shorts

    WE GIVIN IT ALL SHE’S GOT CAPT’IN BUT A FEW MORE MINUTES AND SHE’LL BURST DA HULL!

  • safyrejet

    That she does. And she’s not even trying. It just. Happens.

  • safyrejet

    Right!? And it’s not like fangirls can actually have him, he deserves someone to take good care of him.

  • safyrejet

    Just his socks? ;P

  • svartalf

    And looking forward to each and every one of them, at that.

  • holykittensbatman

    Thank you for sharing this beautiful story with us, Pascalle. I’m so excited!

  • Crestlinger

    Plan ‘Free Willy’ entering final phase.

  • Me-me

    She’ll be the one getting plundered, though.

  • Darkoneko Hellsing

    Ah, sorry, my english can be a bit wonky sometimes. I meant that in a completly unironical way.

    Since they could die tomorrow, might as well do the most with the remaining time ^_^

  • awww! <3

  • Marduk

    Thank you…

    But honestly you’re probably gonna die.

  • Speedy Marsh

    Thanks for coming with me. You, and you, and you are goinna die, so it’s been nice knowing you…

  • Speedy Marsh

    No Thursday update? Well, at least William & Holly have a few more days alone together.

  • safyrejet

    lol, I think Pascalle spoiled us a little with the extra pages she gave us. Gotta make us appreciate them again. :P

  • I have to do some math to figure out how to dole out the ending in a way that is really smooth and enjoyable for people.

    Until then *holds tight on buffer* my precious…

  • Ori Klein

    “Hey, homeboy, wanna get a quick wet willy before we go and die?”
    And off behind the mountain they went.

  • Speedy Marsh

    With enough extra updates, the last page could be a Christmas (and other holidays) present. :D

  • Speedy Marsh

    Don’t worry, Inman followed them with a camera, and Scherzer is drawing fanart in the bathroom stalls.

  • safyrejet

    You know, I just realized that your little avatar is less Megaman and more Megaman style Reona. I always thought that was an actual normal Megaman, but that cap, it’s Reona’s space horns curling up just right there….subtle. But brilliant.

  • haha yeah! thanks! :3

    I did a short run of buttons with this design, but they’re all gone now. Thinking of doing some shirts or something.

  • Speedy Marsh

    You know what happened to Smeagol when he got too attached to the ring:

    So I just read all of this today. (Err, in the past few hours.)

    And I’ve decided that there’s no way in hell you didn’t write this as you went. You must’ve planned this out since near the beginning.

    Whatever, doesn’t matter. Damn fine job writing. Makes me a little sad that it’ll probably end after Gunnar’s dealt with, which doesn’t look to be that far out. ‘Cuz this is awesome.

  • Of course it was planned! Who said it was written on the fly?

    Who starts a 1,000 page sci fi epic without a plan!?

  • Christer Johnsson

    Sadly too many. There are a lot of dead and unfinshed comics out on the net.

    I’m very happy that you had your plan, joy and stamina to carry it out. :-{D

    Now time for a thank-you- kiss on the next page…? Pretty please with strawberries and cream on top…

  • chrisbrady

    About the Kickstarter things, Lepas. The issue is communication, I’ve found that we don’t mind waiting for promised things as long as there a dialog between us and the product producer. As long as you let us know what is happening, we’re incredibly cool with it. And it’s not just us ‘Zaplings’ but anyone who does the KS thing. We appreciate the fact that you let us know where things are at. We also understand that Life Happens(tm),

  • Especially when “the printing company you paid suddenly becomes impossible to contact and you have to threaten legal action to get them to print your books” happens. haha. It was a horrible year!

    But we made it and now almost all the books are out. Thank you so much for being understanding! :)

  • chrisbrady

    I never had a chance to participate in it, namely I had no idea and I don’t have the money in general. But I’ve backed a few (cheap) projects, and as long as they TALK to us, we’re cool.

Vote for Zap! First Time Here?
