Pioneers 3: All the Captain's Men is the 16th comic of Another Life in Strangeverse. It was published on Febuary 1 2013.

Plot Synopsis
Ed has established himself as more than just a captain and is now a pirate captain. As he converses with his new second in command he is asked about what happened to his old second in command, Dirge. With a grim expression on his face Ed replies that Dirge is dead him now. We then see Dirge sitting in the poorly constructed twig and string brig singing "Nobody know's the trouble I've seen".

Trivia

 * The original title for this comic was "Pioneers 3: Pirate Theme Rising" but was changed last minute to spoof Robert Penn Warren's 1946 novel All the King's Men but only because as Black said: "...because I felt the title fit the story".
 * Another prime example of Ed showcasing his seemingly remarkable ability to "find" things. Nobody knows where he got the pirate had or belt buckle or the fake wine. It's especially remarkable since he doesn't have a job and is never seen handling money of any kind.
 * The name of Ed's wine is "Fakus Winus" which is fake latin for fake wine.
