Really? That was the one I liked best as a kid. The badger should have given my memory a jog I guess.
Righto, try this one for size:
"
In "
Marooned"
, a two-part story occupying issues twenty-three and twenty-four of the book's run, we see Feingberg and Shea at their blood-freezing best. Unusual in that it is a one-character story narrated mostly in captions, "
Marooned"
tells the story of a young mariner whose vessel is wrecked by the Black Freighter befor eit can return to its hometown and warn it of the hell-ship's approach. Cast adrift on an uninhabited lisland with only his dead shipmates for company, we experience the frantic mariner's torment at the knowledge that while he is trapped on his island, the bestial crew of the Freighter are surely bearing down upon his town, his home, his wife and his children. Driven by his burning desire to avert this calamity, we see the mariner finally escape from the island by what may be one of the most striking and horrific devices thus far in pirate comic books:"
