Avast! I mean, at last!

It’s everyone’s favorite kosher pirate — Captain Picklebeard and his ole chum, Dilly. This time in sea-raging color thanks to the lovely and talented Jennie Kohl Austin. He started as a day dream on Talk Like a Pirate Day — which fortuitously coincided with the Krypton Comics Artists Jam. I like the character quite a bit, and would like to do more with him — perhaps a short comic story?

Cursed from quite a young age with a green and bumpy (and peculiar vinegar scented) beard, young master Picklebeard stole a ship and took to the high-seas to escape the taunts of fellow students in the Seaside Naval Academy for Wayward Youths.

Thus began the sordid (and peculiar vinegar scented) tale of one of the sea’s most feared buccaneers, Picklebeard the Pirate.
