« Don't they remember "cling to guns and religion"? | Main | I uninstalled Adobe Reader... » Hagar Chronology ProjectI love this idea from the Comics Curmudgeon: We often see the same situations over and over again in Hagar the Horrible, and as I've said before, I've come to believe that this is because events in the strip are playing out in a nonlinear narrative. Thus, every castle raid shown is really just a different moment in a single castle raid, every strip that features Hagar and Eddie in the dungeon is a different moment in the same stretch of imprisonment, etc. "Hagar and Eddie on a desert island" is another repeating trope, but I don't believe I've ever seen the rest of the crew of Hagar's ship similarly marooned with them. Still, I'm going to assume that this is again the same shipwreck, and what we're seeing here is the early days of their time as castaways, before the turn to cannibalism.
