Rated ARGGHH!

An 18th-century pirate’s unlikely adventure in present-day Florida.

Welcome to the second-to-last 12 Panel Pitch. The next and final entry will feature the winning script submitted by a Slate reader.

This week’s comic is by William Payne. Inspired by this recent NPR story about breaking films into microgenres, I’m calling Will’s 12 Panel Pitch a time-traveling-pirate spring-break sports-comedy road movie. Enjoy!
