    It’s SO the island they’re on.
    Anyways, when I saw “O’er fields and copses” I thought it said “corpses”. Yes, I know, I’m very morbid.

    making my day, Les!

    Wonderful finally seeing all the clues at once.

    I did think it said corpses, mainly because I never seen the word copses before.

    Anyone wondering it’s a “A thicket of small trees or shrubs” learn something new everyday.

  4. Pe-ads

    Yeah, copse isn’t exactly an everyday word, but it is fairly common in books and stuff. Is English your first language?

    It’s been a while since I read JXB straight through, but weren’t there five pistols?

  6. Les McClaine

    There were. They’re missing the line from one of them. I haven’t uploaded the corrected pages yet, so the number of pistols changes a bit, the poem is completely different that it was before, and they have a line they’re not supposed to back in chapter 1. It’ll make sense once I get it all edited properly.

    i was wondering. i thought it was different from what it had been. make sure to post a link to the pages that changed, will ya?
    BTW, you ever get any of those commissions done?

  8. James

    if not, dont worry about it. consider it a contribution! (wish I could buy some of the pages, but i’m broke too!)

  9. Haggis

    First and only language. And I’m a big reader and have a pretty good vocabulary. Heck I read mostly fantasy that you expect it. Maybe I forgot it, or just never noticed it.

  10. James

    you missed the copse for the perennial?

    Johnny’s back!
    :-D

    Wasn’t there a statue of that guy who was shot by arrows (St Bartholomew?) somewhere on the island? Seems to fit pretty well.

    First panel, “within by breast”. Second panel, “within my breast”.
