It’s Talk Like A Pirate Day!
And I can’t think of a better day for you to check out Lady Sabre the webcomic about a female Pirate by Greg Rucka and Rick Burchett. It publishes once a week (mostly) and I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t read it.
Or you could pick up Conan the Barbarian by Brian Wood and Becky Cloonan and meet Belit:
And I think it is fair to remind people that at one time in the 90s Wonder Woman had an arc devoted to her battling Space Pirates.
No, really.
Today is talk like a pirate day!
Arrrrr, today is the day you should talk like a pirate. To celebrate let’s take a look at Wonder Woman and pirates.

The pirate speaks,”Wonder beauty hasn’t just fought pirates. She’s actually been a pirate!”

And, of course, the infamous “Space Pirate” storyline from Messner-Loebs’ run:
And finally here’s a lovely portrait of Wonder Woman as a pirate by Brent Peeples
