This page is what happens when you write yourself into a corner.
As you can clearly see, Armstrong is, in fact, becoming a whale. Some even might say…a Were-whale. Mad props to Shuimulung, who totally called it, BTW. This one’s for you…Guitar!
So, anyway, the Cosmos said, “Congratulations ThreeOneFive, you got a whale into a submarine, now how do you plan on getting it out? Only the greatest writers of a generation would dare ponder a question of such magnitude, and now it falls to you.”
Well, we gazed into that abyss and… invented a character named Twitchy. And, blew things up.
Your move, Cosmos.
Be here NEXT WEEK when EVERYTHING GOES WRONG! No joke, DANGER and PERIL await. RSS it! Like us! Follow us! Do whatever you must to avoid missing out. You owe it to yourself, man.
Oh! Don’t forget about Evin’s Sunday Bonus Lunch. It’s always good times, and my wife reads it (she has good taste *wink*).
Also, we’re climbing the charts so make sure and vote, vote, vote at Top Webcomics.
THANKS for reading Deep Dive Daredevils, guys…
Anyways, till next week!

P.S. Did you watch that guitar solo? You should.
That just inspires great confidence, that the explosives expert has a mechanical arm. Presumably he’ll be more careful next time?
“Careful” is not in Twitchy’s vocabulary.
I really think detonating explosives inside a submarine is really a bit on the dangerous side. Just sayin’. Danger.
Private Guiles, Questioning direct orders is a habit for those with a hankering for KP duty. Thanks to your stellar service record, you get a pass. Remember son, danger is what we do. This is the Deep Dive Daredevils not the Merchant Marine.
Hope you have a plan of the sub roughed out so you know where all the corners you might write yourself into are. That compartment is enormous. (But then, so are the bridges of all TV spaceships.)
And don’t admit it when you write yourself into a corner. In jazz, if you miss a note, its not a mistake, it’s improvisation.
On the vagaries of the submarine interiors, yes, there is an internal logic to everything you see on the page. In addition to, as you pointed out, the general license taken with the interiors of fictional vessels.
All will be revealed! Just not for a while.
In regards to the “corner”, I don’t see it as a mistake, but just the perils of putting your characters in outlandish situations. It takes A LOT of time to figure out how to get them back out again.
Thanks!
A were-whale? Didn’t see that coming.
If the Spanish Inquisition shows up I, for one, expected them.
HA!
