Sinbad Comic

Join Sinbad and his merry men as they embark on a dubiously-conceived quest to foil a dubiously-conceived but probably evil plot by the evil vizier Jaffar! Sinbad Comic is a screen-cap comic based on the incredible, incomparable, and inexplicable 1989 Lou Ferrigno film, Sinbad of the Seven Seas. Updated every Monday and Thursday.

From: ThePhan

I can almost imagine him grinning and twirling his moustache after that line.

The more I think about it, the more that line amuses me.

Also, a square Persian rug sitting in the middle of an octagonal room looks awful.

Sam: http://www.rinkworks.com/sneak_preview_one_niner.html
Revan: It's preview one-niner!
Randy: LOL LOL
Goosey: LOL LOL
Goosey: "Attack one at a time!"
MissyCat: LOL
Lirelyn: LOL
TalkingDog: Nice.
10Kan: LOL
Bryn: Hehe. Cool.
Randy: Love "I'm supposed to be on break"
Sam: hehehe
Sam: That's probably my favorite line in that one, too.
10Kan: "DISHARMONY!"
Lirelyn: I love the wicked cunning of "attack one at a time."
Brick: "Eeep!"
jaime: funny funny
Sam: You might (or not) be wondering why I chose comics 1, 5, and 19 to preview, as that's sort of random. Basically I was looking for ones that didn't give away the plot changes I'm doing. Those three seemed pretty self-contained.
Randy: I hope against all hope there are jokes about Sinbad throwing his sword away during every stupid fight.
Sam: Randy: Yes, but probably not what you're expecting.
Revan: It's looking really well-done. I can't wait for the webcomic to start already!

Additionally, I showed this to a friend of mine, who is a journalist. She replied: "I think I should suddenly shout 'DISHARMONY!' next week in one of the murder trials I'm [covering]. Or one day when it's suddenly quiet in the newsroom."

If so, the reprise of that joke with the fruit absolutely made my day. As well as the

DISHARMONY!

Awesome. Well played, Sir Samuel.
