Adopting both the format and template of Sammy Harkham's Poor Sailor – that of a mini-comic sized hardcover volume composed of a series of single-panel pages dealing with an inadvertent maritime adventure – Drew Weing has attacked the page with a formidable inking technique that calls to mind Roger Langridge's fine work on Fred the Clown. A key difference between Harkham's and Weing's respective mini-epics, is that Set to Sea, while suffering its hero to sustain one rather gruesome injury, is, nevertheless, suitable for younger readers – espeially those of a nautical bent, who enjoy finely crafted renderings of 19th century ships and towns.
