UPDATE: Here I am thinking the “four elements” were universal. I was just schooled on the traditional Chinese five elements of fire, water, earth, wood, and metal, which would be a more obvious choice for Daiyu to reference! Had I known I would have had to scrap the joke (with a touch of seriousness… I mean, fire breathing ducks=Certain DOOM) so I’ll just pretend Daiyu was schooled someplace where they were all about the fire, air, water and earth. You should too!

Either you get this one or you don't.

OK, technically today's comic is made up of the exact comics from March 10th and March 18th, 2010. All the information in these comics are pertinent to the story and instead of finding a way to retell the same information it was just better on all counts to rerun them in this story.

You know, I put these reference comics below the strip now for handy reminders of where you’ve seen things before or to enhance a flashback or ‘just because’. Sometimes there is strong plot-related significance, other times, it’s like “hey that’s neat!” This is probably neither but I didn’t want anyone to feel they needed to reread all of Oceans Unmoving (unless they really want to) when I go “ref: Caribs.” ‘Nuff said.
Ref: Caribs.

This is technically half a comic. I realized I couldn't pull off all 6 rows and have the comic up by dawn so I had to split it right down the middle. You guys will see a legible timeline and some clarity tomorrow!

Ref: Teddy Weddy, Fall-Guy | Corsica#21 | Corsica #1.

Refs: Rammer's message was sent to his office, which is why he didn't expect it to be replayed... | "Riff, My Boy" | Y-Frames refer to bots like the M.O.M.M.Y. | What this parallel Dimension Schlock MIGHT have been referring to with the term "Corsicas"...

Ref: Rea-6 Debut |Rammer calls Old Riff "Commander" because the Y-frame did.

OK, so I'm a little burned-outish lately! I'm taking Memorial Day weekend as "off" as I possibly can so please excuse the lack of effort in the strips from here through Monday! And enjoy the weekend everybody! And remember.

See also: Bun-bun's (and Riff's) tale | Torg's tale.
 BTW today's comic is the ONE panel that I was supposed to finish yesterday's comic with. And I barely finished it in time. Almost two full days on this one. Clearly I have time-estimation issues.
