I think it’s a double meaning, in this case. According to urbandictionary.com a snapper is, “a vagina with a muscular vaginal wall, for extra sensation,” (definition 1) and also, “used in North Dublin, Ireland, as slang for a baby.” (definition 4)
As the hot, sexy, athletic, redheaded great-great-grandchild of the victim, both definitions probably apply to Red Snapper.
I’m hoping it involves a viking being thawed out from a block of ice.

In the U.K., “snapper” is slang for lady parts.
I’ve been giggling about that since the introduction of Red Snapper, and I guess I’m tired of laughing at it by myself.
I’m English, and I had no idea! …Now I’ll have to go back and snigger at it on every page!

Or we could all be over thinking this. ;-D
Oh those wacky Brits and their sexual slang that the creators of this comic were probably not aware of. Probably.
I’m sorry, fellas. I loved this comic at the start, but lately you’ve lost me.
Cheers to you, and I hope you keep entertaining others.
Red Snapper is a fish! Haven’t you people ever watched “UHF”? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KezvwARhBIc Man, kids today!
@ Steve
Is what we’re doing now really THAT different?
@ Matt: yes, I’m aware. I caught your “Red Snapper…very tasty” reference last week. I even said it to myself in a Chinese-American accent.
@ Bob: I’m willing to overthink it if you are. My brain has muscular walls for extra sensation.
That resolved itself rather quickly… or is there a McTwist coming next?
