Uh oh. This may not end well for Cueball.
Why? I think he’s just figuring out what to say to people they encounter. At first I thought he was slowing down, and telling Megan to keep going - but it doesn’t make sense to tell *her *to go uphill.
I got my frames out of order. I thought that the cat was chasing them and he was sacrificing himself to save her.
This peaceful “wait for it” comic has turned into action adventure!
Ha - yeah, I’ve done that about 10 times now. “No, run the OTHER way!! Oh…you are. Carry on…”
I think he is talking to the hedgehog.
It’s definitely getting more exciting. I’m not exactly sure what their plan is at this point though. It’s not like they can stop the flood or help their tribe run away faster. Maybe their knowledge of the scope of the coming disaster combined with the maps will help though.
The big question is: can beret girl be saved?
Presumably, their plan is to use the stolen map to lead the tribe safely to high ground, rather than have everyone get stuck on a hill and then drown when the water encircles them.
It doesn’t look like they know how to swim. The sea they lived by was apparently hypersaline to the point where you could float effortlessly in it, while the water pouring in isn’t.
This explains why they were so freaked out when Cueball lost his gear in the river. They knew that river water was deadly to swim in, but water from the sea was safe.
Anyone having problems viewing the Aubronwood page? Anyone have a different link?
The site is working for me at the moment, though it has not at times. There’s also a pretty good compilation at Geekwagon that you can step through or play back at a specific pace.
They’re back with their people - but is it too late? Running downhill is one thing; running uphill is entirely another…
Gotta build a raft.
For forty people?
OK, so call it an ark.
I think their previous sea must have been really salty like the Dead Sea. They seem befuddled on how you swim when the sea doesn’t hold you up.
I bet the thing floating on the sea is the boat they made to put their sand castle on before they left.
Saved by beret girl!
Nice!
