Comic Kid not only likes comics and taking/drawing pictures, he also collects bugs! Thanks for the update, Obiwan2324. That is one awesome and sparkling butterfly in the strange enchanted forest! Look at Comic Kid oohing and waving his hands excitedly in this sneak peek:

Notice how the butterfly seems to be slightly transparent – maybe it has the Phantom power from the Poptropica Store! Speaking of the Pop Store, the prices have gone back down to normal, as noted by Lazy Feather, who also took the following pictures shown below. All items have gone back to their original prices (a look at the post below would show that earlier, the prices had skyrocketed up to 75 more credits than before)! Sweet!

In other news, we’re still evaluating the winners for the ”Poptropica’s Best Dressed” contest. According to Incredible Fish, Macey909’s family made PHF accounts to vote for her, so they may not have been her own accounts. However, Shaggy Tornado and many others are still unsure, so no prizes have been sent yet. Motionman95, host of the competition, is considering just randomly picking the winners. More news will follow soon!
Poptropica Help Blog currently has 1,453,000+ hits (about 1.4 million)! Bring on the cookies!
Yikes, it seems that they’re at the dumpster with someone’s missing keys! Must be another mishap in the unfortunate life of Ned Noodlehead. Thanks for the news about the sneak peek (shown below), Obiwan2324!
The story below is a sequel chapter to the “Soaring High” chapter from a previous post on the PHB. Please note that the story below is a work of fiction; written by the PHB Team to entertain its readers. Enjoy!

Chapter 5
Trashy Day
Ned Noodlehead decided to take a break from hiking, so he went back down the hill and walked downtown, where he was hoping to get some lunch after being unsuccessful in grabbing some seagulls’ eggs. He walked around the island central, considering all the restaurant possibilities. ”Yo, Comic boy, over here!” called a voice to the side. Ned Noodlehead spun around, staring at the little crowd that had gathered before him. ”How did –?” he began, but was cut off by his adoring fans. ”Noodlehead, I’m a big fan of yours!” ”I heard that you saved an island from dangerous criminals!” ”Your comics rock, man!”
”Gee, thanks.” Ned grinned about his sudden fame among the citizens of the strange island. A kid wearing a ”Brief Encounters” T-shirt with Comic Kid’s face on it shouted, ”Can I have your autograph?” Less than a second later, he was surrounded with dozens of pens and papers. Ned tried to sign as many as he could, but his hand soon got tired. ”Guys, thanks a lot, but I really gotta run. I haven’t had lunch yet!”
Another fan, who was wearing a puppy dog costume, tapped his shoulder. ”Oh, you’ll love the Cartoon Dog. They’ve got lots of tasty stuff there. C’mon, I’ll show you.” She led the way to a building with a hand-drawn sign reading ”The Cartoon Dog: Taste the comics!” The screaming mob of fans followed them inside, but the puppy-costumed girl didn’t seem to mind. ”Table for two, please,” she told the waitress standing at the front. The waitress, who was wearing a white uniform, smiled and showed them their seats. Meanwhile, the rest of the fans had finally realized that it wasn’t necessary to hog up all the restaurant’s space, helped by the manager who had to take them all outside. The restaurant manager winked at Ned.
”My name’s Comical Dog.” She reached her hand out, so Ned shook it. ”I’m Ned–” ”Oh, you don’t need to tell me who you are. Everyone here knows you; you’re the superhero who saved Super Power Island. Ned Noodlehead, am I right?” ”Yeah,” laughed Ned, very pleased to know that others knew about his heroic efforts. ”But I couldn’t have done it without a very special Poptropican!” This day is going so well!, thought NN, thinking that good fortune was finally entering his life.
After a pleasant meal with lots and lots of cookies, Ned Noodlehead sat back, declaring that his stomach was now very well-fed. He managed to resist a satisfied burp, just when Comical Dog volunteered to pay for the meal. ”That’s kind of you,” offered Ned. ”Thanks,” replied Dog, looking down at their table. ”Hmm, we seem to have made quite a mess with our leftover cookie crumbs.” She chuckled and picked them up with a tissue. ”There’s a dumpster out at the back; let’s go.” So Noodlehead followed Comical Dog out of the restaurant.
A ghastly smell filled the atmosphere as they stepped closer towards the dumpster. ”Ick,” gagged NN. ”Don’t worry, kid,” smiled Dog, who was now standing right in front of what Ned called ”the box with bad smells”. She tossed the wrapped tissue with crumbs inside the dumpster, then said, ”Sorry, Comic guy. I have to get home now. See you around!” ”Bye,” croaked Ned, feeling unable to smell the stench for much longer. Comical Dog jogged away, and Ned decided to leave to.
It was only when he’d arrived back at the front of his comic shop in Super Power Island did he realize that he’d forgotten his keys. Without them, he couldn’t unlock the door to his store. Oh no, oh no, oh no! He remembered placing them on the Cartoon Dog restaurant table, as he was explaining to Comical Dog about his comic shop. ”Nooooooo….!!” wailed Ned Noodlehead. Comical Dog had thrown his keys away!
And so this was how he came to be down in the dumps for the rest of the day. (Thanks for the joke, Cool Wing!)

Description: My day was going so well until I realized that my keys were missing. The last time I remember having them was at lunch, when I threw my leftovers away. I’m afraid they’re probably in the big dumpster out back.

Chapter 4
Soaring High
It took all night, but Comic Kid finally made it to the other end of the volcanic tunnel. He’d had to jump on each chunck of nearby rock, careful not to fall into the deadly lava of the underground. Along the way he kept having strange feelings about where he was, but had managed to shake it off. Comic Kid hadn’t had any sleep that night, having spent the whole time crawling through danger, and was extremely relieved when a huge ray of sunlight beamed on his face. Not only was it already daytime, but that also meant that the exit was close by!
A few minutes later, Ned Noodlehead (Comic Kid’s daytime form) emerged from the long “hole”. In front of him was a group of hills, which seemed to glow radiantly, seemed to say to him, Explore. Ned had never been to this area before, and thought it rather strange but pleasant. However, he was rather tired from the previous night’s adventure and decided to take a nap under the shade of a palm tree.
An hour later, he woke up feeling hungrier than ever. Gah, where’s a hot dog when I need one?, growled his stomach. But of course, Ned’s love for exploration drove him to the hills. He thought that some hiking might make him feel better, and it certainly did! (You see, taking a walk is healthy for your body. In case you’ve been sitting at your computer all day, this is for you: Get up and exercise!)
On his hike, he met several little creatures, including a cute and friendly armadillo. “I like to go out hiking when summer chills the air!” sang Ned, remembering one of his favorite hiking songs. While climbing the hills he’d also managed to find similar berries to the ones he’d eaten in a jungle before. His stomach became satisfied for a time.
Less than an hour later, Ned Noodlehead had reached as far as he could up the top and sniffed the air in delight. “Is that eggs I smell?” the kid wondered. He stepped closer and was able to confirm what he’d just smelled. Seagull’s eggs! Atop a large rock there lay a nest with two little eggs inside. Unfortunately for Ned, though, the eggs’ owner – a white seagull with a long yellow beak – immediately appeared, guarding the nest. She had been soaring high in the sky, but swooped down to stand next to her nest upon seeing Ned. Now she glared at him as a warning not to even bother taking the precious eggs. Ned shrugged and decided to head back down to find something else for his lunch.
Blog Post Title: Soaring High
Description: Last week I went for a hike into the hills of a strange island, and this is what I saw. I was so hungry from my travels and the eggs looked so good, but I didn’t think the seagull would like it if I “borrowed” an egg for my lunch!

Hungry for eggs? Don’t worry, there’s sure to be some chicken eggs for sale at your local supermarket. But that’s not what Ned Noodlehead wanted, was it? 😛
