Description If Captain Haddock played an instrument, I can see him playing a cello. So here he is, playing Bach's Cello Suite #1 in G, a marvelous piece of classical music. It's featured in the Master and Commander movie when Steven Maturin is playing the cello.

So technically if I were truly playing to the stereotypes of the Jack Aubrey series by Patrick O'Brian, Captain Haddock would be a violinist and, say, Tintin would be playing the cello. However that's a combination I just can't see, because Tintin would have to play the violin because all great detectives play the violin. (You guys almost had a violin/cello duet of Tintin and Captain Haddock, but I messed up on Tintin so just Captain Haddock it is.)

If Cuthbert Calculus were to play an instrument it'd certainly be a theremin. [link]

Sailor Mario strikes! This time in Bach-in it up!

I love how the piece primariliy uses color instead of black lines for borders. Very cool!

It's something I have been working on more recently. Thank-you!

Is Sailor Mario some ungodly merging of the universes of Super Mario and Sailor Moon, or am I missing something? 0.o (Please, please tell me I AM missing something!)

That would be ungodly o.O

I am happy to announce that I can tell you that you're missing something.

I was thinking of a sailor in the traditional sense. High seas, cute white hat, scurvy. You know, the works!

Okay, that's great-- long as I don't have to picture Super Mario having a typical Japanese magical girl transformation moment.

The Captain is a real brave man!

Do you remember "The Red Sea sharks" or "Tintin in Tibet"? Captain is THE guy!

Yes! He certainly is brave. I got lucky when I was a kid and Dad bought my siblings and I ALL of the Tintin comics. In fact this winter there was a huge ice storm that knocked out power for days and I read Tintin comics curled up next to the fireplace. Some of those comics books we have are at least twenty years old.
