Thursday was going to say something about yesterday's strip, but it's not sure what exactly is going on. It's slightly confused. Hopefully today's strip will elucidate on what exactly is happening.

Anyone got a handle on the native's language yet?

So far, I'm guessing:

Dono = What (is)?
Ulto = Dead / death / kill
Paseo = Big ass monster
Kek = outsider / stranger. Or possibly "spandex wearers"
Ann'Imm'Maas = gaseous kryptonite psychic parasites
OA- RAOAA = "Imma goin' (to) Disney Land!"
Ohia = "I say, good chaps"
Yearrrrrrrrrrrgh = Yearrrrrrrrrrrgh

I'm not sure, if the birdie was talking the same language like the islanders. At least, it was a different font.

My guesses:

Dono. = (they) affect.
Dono 'zap' = What did 'zap' affect?
Dono kek! = What are you doing?
Kek ulto! = They/You are enemies / danger!
Pasea ulto? = Danger / enemies ahead!
Kek tisso? = What's going on?

Any chance I can get the battery Riff uses in his laser cannon for my phone?

I'd be with Zoe and Gwynn here. "Yay, we're not dead, but less get out of here before one more random monster appears."

Funny. This didn't enter my mind. I thought they were going to be afraid of the local villagers' response, after the screams of victory subside.

My brain is REAAAAALLLLY trying to find a different villain, apparently.

"Quick! Run away from the people we just saved!"

I'm assuming it's uranium. Riff really should have himself checked out. So should everybody he knows.

But then again, if a few weeks in New Jersey didn't kill them, I guess they can survive anything.

'Bout time Riff went after the giant monster that only he could take out. Ranged weapons FTW!

In frame 3, Mr. Grumpy AND his sea-monster anima seem pretty upset. Just from getting some water splashed on them, or is there some connection to the big bad there??

I noticed that too. Any further comment would be spec, but I am sure it will be revealed.

If he is the chief protector, some of his people just died (on his watch). So yeah, he's upset.

There could be another reason, but that one is straight forward... (which means it's the reason that Pete wants us to think - for now...)

No, no. "OA-RAOAA" translates as "BOOM! Headshot!"

We've got some more discussion of language in src if you want to join!

One thing that is bugging me: How did the fight with the little hammerheads end quickly? Chaz still seems to be clean. Am I missing panels? Were they slaughtered so easily by the islanders that it happened off-panel?

Pete was trying to imply that Torg and co
Slaughtered them all like level 1 slimes.
