Ahoy there, matey! 

I absolutely love CONAN Vol. 13: Queen of the Black Coast, in which Conan is in love with a pirate queen and they have all sorts of adventures together.

Kicking off Dark Horse’s sweeping adaptation of Robert E. Howard’s “Queen of the Black Coast,” Conan turns his back on the civilized world and takes to the Western Ocean. Finding first danger and then passion in the arms of the pirate queen Bêlit, the Cimmerian begins a new life of pleasure and pillage along the Black Coast, in this epic of romance and terror! A perfect jumping-on point for new readers!

Another great pirate character in comics is Captain Raven, the Pirate Princess from Princeless. You can read about her in PRINCELESS: THE PIRATE PRINCESS and in RAVEN: THE PIRATE PRINCESS Vol. 1: Captain Raven and the All-Girl Pirate Crew.

Adrienne has been on the run and working to save her sisters, but when she finds another princess locked away in a tower, she decides to spring her! But Raven Xingtao, the daughter of the Pirate King, is more of a handful that Adrienne could have ever expected. Before she knows it, Adrienne is off on a whirlwind adventure to complete Raven’s quest for revenge!

Raven is ready to set out on her quest for revenge against her brothers. They’ve stolen everything that should be hers and now she’s going to get it back. But first, she needs a crew. Share the laughs, action, and adventure as Raven assembles the fearless crew of awesome ladies who will help her get her revenge.

For a little vintage flair, check out this amazing restored collection of Polka Dot Pirate.

The Polka Dot Pirate returns from the mist of the 1940s! A little known Canadian hero, Polka Dot Pirate patrolled the harbours and fought crooks with her bare hands. Always triumphing she somehow managed to fight crime in the most stylish outfit possible. 

Originally published in Canada in the 1940s and created by Ross Mendes, this collection is one of the rare Canadian Whites that have been lost to time. This collection has been fully restored, includes the one colour appearance of Polka Dot Pirate, and features pinups by Scott Chantler, Kelly Tindall, David Cutler, and Randal Milholland.

CURSED PIRATE GIRL is absolutely beautiful, the art almost reminds me of antique etchings.

Adventures on and under the high seas lead a cursed pirate girl to encounter mythic creatures, gnarled and crusty pirates, and ghostly apparitions as she tries to find her lost father, one of the dreaded Pirate Captains of the mythical Omerta Seas. A whimsical swashbuckling tale of wonderland journeys and unimaginable dangers, starting in Port Elisabeth, Jamaica in the year 1728, and quickly heading across – and beneath – the waves. The first three issues are collected with an all-new epilogue.

Also, that one time DEADPOOL was a pirate.

WAVE OF MUTILATION PART 1 Deadpool has ceased to exist, he’s given his good-byes, he’s driven his car into the ocean. But he is not dead. No…now, he’s a pirate!

Well, I hope these can ease your suffering a little! It doesn’t look like we have a translation of Les Pirates de Barataria but I can pass along your interest to the international team. 

Wishing you fair winds and smooth sailing, Lou from the podcast crew
