“The Mariner's Revenge Song” by The Decemberists which clocks in at 8:46

"A tale of betrayal, obsession, and fishy things"

So reads the subtitle of the first page (above) of Douglas Holgate's excellent seven page picture play illustrated to accompany “The Mariner's Revenge Song” by The Decemberists. For this week's 8+, I suggest downloading the above song and clicking through the seven pages of said picture play. To make things easy for you, the links to each page are posted below. All images were originally found at the House of Skullduggery.

Page 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.
