And a jacket cut along simple lines.

A deep, plunging "V" in

front and laced sides.

Let's see. May, June, July.

Seven, 14, 21.

Twenty-second,

twenty-third, twenty-fourth.

Another day, another nut.

July 25th.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday, Lt. Crusoe

Happy birthday to you

Driven by loneliness and curiosity,

I resolved to explore

this lonely island.

If it was an island.

Still no sign of another human being.

It was almost as if I were

the first person on Earth.

I guess I always knew

it would happen someday.

Dear, you never knew my

father. His name was Joe Crusoe.

Pop was a frustrated streetcar

motorman back in Kansas City, Kansas,

who always wanted to run away to sea.

He never made it, but he stuck

me with the name Robinson.

Why couldn't Dad have

named me Dwight or Lyndon?

It was indeed an island.

Now I knew for certain.

I was alone.

I took a new direction homeward,

coming upon a part of the

shore that was unknown to me.

At first I paid scant attention

because I was too busy

feeling sorry for myself.

Then I saw it.

Hello?

Hello!

War over.

Me... Me friend of Sessue Hayakawa.

Okay?

Hello?

Anybody here?

Boop. Boop.

Boop. Boop.

I've always wanted to do this.

Boop-boop-boop.

Boop-boop-boop.

Ow.

Hello!

What? Oh, I... Hello.

Oh. That's...

Hello there.

Captain Nemo, I presume, huh?

You probably never read

20,000 Leagues Under the...

I sure admire that gun you got there.

That could blow a hole big enough to...

Mind if I have a look at it?

- It's not an American

- made...

Well, there, there,

buddy. It's okay now.

Hey, listen. How'd you get here anyway?

Listen, who are you?

Huh?

A fellow American!

Oh, boy. If you only knew

how glad I am to see you.

What's this?

" Astro-Chimp Floyd?

Project Mercury. Discoverer of bearer

please notify Navy

Department, Washington, D.C."

An astro-chimp.

Well, sir, let me tell you

what an honor it is to meet you.

In my book, you're one of

the great heroes of our time.

Hey, mind if I look around in here?

Of course he couldn't answer.

But I could almost

figure it out for myself.

It was years since the chimp program

on space probes was phased out.

Floyd probably landed

out of recovery range,

floated to shore in a space capsule,

broken out and managed

somehow to survive.

After all, why shouldn't he survive?

Floyd wasn'tjust any animal.

The Navy selected these creatures

for their high degree of adaptability.

As I recall, the IQs of those

astro-chimps compared favorably...

with those of your average naval ensign.

Oh, boy!

A Japanese supermarket!

Wait a minute. Let's

not lose our heads here.

I don't need comic books. I
