Plus, there is the whole “unity/equality between man and animal” that Pete is trying to help along… Even though he hasn’t made an on-screen appearance in a while, he’s probably been helping things along from the background. (You know… giving the characters that “still small voice” that asks them to get along.)
There’s no telling what Rick might come up with. Heck it might even be about Fidos police work, Pete causing trouble, the ferrets buying something stupid/amazing stuff or even abot Spot the super dog.
I know right! Rick has really been improving his artwork by using different perspectives to tell a story, alongside his more liberal use of comic panels.
You know when an artist is getting good when you can “feel” or “openly interpret” the scene taking place in your minds eye (even though there is just two panels to look at)!
In the tale of the Opener of Ways pg. 1729
A servant of the Opener of Ways gave a magic orb to the brave young raccoons telling them. ” Thou must hide this sacred item so that forces of evil shall never touch it again.”" We shall accept thous reguest”. Answered the young raccoons and took the orb ran into the forest where they were never heard from again.
what a great ending for them! and bino’s ball!? truck better watch out. and bino better be careful grape doesnt give him a broom to the face for going after max.lol.
I like seeing these 2 characters in their funny heists but I’m really starting to miss some of my favourite characters. Peanut, Tarot, Fido,Fox, Sabrina, Rez, the ferrets, the tanuki and King. Well okay I don’t miss King that much cause he had a really long strip not too long ago. But still I’m nervous on Tarots part cause Peanut and Tarot are one my favourite couples and they always seem to get into mystical trouble or in a starnge events. And we haven’t seen her on the new style so I’m still nervous on that part.
Sorry pal but Argent Stonecutter made the closest prediction. So you have to choose which limb you’re gonna give away? Either the arm or the leg. So yeah… Sorry man <:(
Whenever he’s unable to post comics himself. Most recent case was during his hospitalization, but other cases have typically included a messed up computer that wouldn’t allow him to work on the comic. I’m pretty sure it will be announced when guest comics will be taken. Shouldn’t stop you from making one now for any future events, though.
I wonder… are Falstaff and Truck walking down a pathway? The trees seem to follow that sort of pattern.
Also, as far as story arcs go, I’d like to see if Spot has changed with the new style. We haven’t seen him in a while. And seeing King and Bailey doing some shopping would be awesome. (By the way, I mean shopping in the background. Too soon for another whole arc for them.)
Lol, almost too many characters to keep their statuses all up-to-date in my head.
At least Fals and Truck had their share of the Crawfish.
And the Mega Ball, don’t forget that
that was just funny max gave beno’s magic ball to them
max only has a couple of secs left to live
Remember he still has 7 lives!
depends on how many he lost for that notch in the ear.
I REALLY wanna see what happens when our favourite dog antagonizer finds out!
oh i’m sure it will be a call to water gun war
Alt Text: “I am assured of its superiority to other spheres”
A good ending for all! I love those kinds of endings!
Yeah, good endings rock ! … though I was hoping to see some broom
I agree. I think this is a great way to END the arc, but I would have liked them to see some justice for their adorable shenanigans.
I recall Fox administered some justice when he found them in the truck?
Except for Bino, though he kind of asked for it by pushing Max’s buttons.
Yeah I agree.
you don’t tease Max, if you value your ball!
In Bino’s case, he has nothing to worry about.:
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2009/12/28/so-as-not-to-leave-you-hanging/
I just noticed — Falstaff leaves soft, delicate paw prints, and Truck leaves big, deep ones. More artistic flavor…
He’ll just upgrade to an Ultra-ball!
Psh. Nothing compared to my Master Ball!
Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi!
Pokemon, actually.
Pokémon is full of Fridge Horror too if you stop and think about it.
*Must think of a ball to top the Master ball and the dragon ball*
I got it! The Katamari!
How about an eraser?
*maniacal laughter*
Like this arc
Well Bino is going to be very angry
I would say that is is going to get … MEGA-Upset
Ohhhhhh … Bino is gonna be mad
noooooooo DA mega ball D:
Well that all ended well for truck and falstaff :3
All too happy for them
Is this really the end of Falstaff and Truck?
Probably not, they’re too cute and hilarious to not have on the comic more often.
coons are smart. They know the way of shenanigans
Plus, there is the whole “unity/equality between man and animal” that Pete is trying to help along… Even though he hasn’t made an on-screen appearance in a while, he’s probably been helping things along from the background. (You know… giving the characters that “still small voice” that asks them to get along.)
Ah Rick, you never cease to make me laugh. I wonder if that mega-ball will come up in future strips?
Don’t eat it all in one place now ya hear?
Wait! o.=.o Does this mean we won’t see Truck and Falstaff for a while?
the time for them to finish the crawfish
I hope we see them again.
I wonder what’ll hapen to them next.
Probably not, Rick likes to cycle through his characters. Maybe the next arc will go back to Bino and Duchess.
There’s no telling what Rick might come up with. Heck it might even be about Fidos police work, Pete causing trouble, the ferrets buying something stupid/amazing stuff or even abot Spot the super dog.
Don’t forget, we still have a hanging thread from the Temple arc, the Milton relatives were introduced and never dealt with.
He just tweeted “Oh, everyone is going to hate me for the next HP arc, but it will be so worth it”.
And thus we can be happy about 2 things:
King and Bailey are still together
And these rqcoons can eat
MEGA ball for MEGA raccoons!
Even considering how Bino is, that was a jerk move, Max!
Well, he’s a cat.
Hey, I resent that… Cats *can* be gentle creatures (when they want)
Max seems to be the exception to the norm here; not the example of.
This was one of the better arcs in the series. I definitely want to see more of these two.
The Broom is dormant……for now!
if coons come knocking at your door/open your fridge/and give ‘em to eat more
If music be the food of love
Then laughter is it’s queen
And likewise if behind is in front
Then dirt in truth is clean
Wait a minute, dirt? You should wash those again before you eat them, just to be sure…
Laughter is it is queen? I should stop commenting at midnight…
Correcting yourself: the greatest virtue.
Or as Shakespeare says,
This above all: To thine own self be true.
60 pounds of crawfish, and bino’s toy. Poor Bino XD
AT – I am assured of its superiority to other spheres
So Falstaff and Truck got their own MEGA-share of crawfish
MEGASPECTACULAR-share of crawfish.
Things are gonna fall apart now
Well that is certainly one way to get crawfish. All’s well that ends well…. Right?
I <3 Falstaff and Truck, and not just because they're raccoons. Ok, maybe partly because they're raccoons. And drawn and written awesome.
this to each point of your observation
Well I liked this ending, after all that work raccoons deserved something for all those failed attempts x3.
Oh and lol’d at the ball thing XD..
And so the mega ball began its journey into the great unknown, with two trusty raccoons at its side.
Also awesome arc!
That’s a wonderful background.

The Mega-Ball came to the Raccoon Truck, who took it deep into the BG forest. And there, it stayed with him!

I actually feel bad for Bino, now. That was most likely a Christmas gift and even if he was snarky with it, he still shouldn’t completely lose it…
But he “loses it” all the time, doesn’t he? That’s why he keeps getting into so much trouble.
The ending to this arch was simply beautiful! Let’s hope Bino wont come after them! :3
If that ball comes up in later episodes Truck is soooo dead. I don’t think Bino will be happy anyway XD
what a great ending for them! and bino’s ball!? truck better watch out. and bino better be careful grape doesnt give him a broom to the face for going after max.lol.
I like the expressions on the little crawfishes. They r cute
Party favor? Perhapse. Regular favor for Max? Definitely.
Bye-bye, Mega Ball.
Max is one sneaky cat. XD
Yay for awsome ending..BUT our true question should be what will they do with the mega ball or if they will even use it?
The world may never know… but for now, they feast!
I like seeing these 2 characters in their funny heists but I’m really starting to miss some of my favourite characters. Peanut, Tarot, Fido,Fox, Sabrina, Rez, the ferrets, the tanuki and King. Well okay I don’t miss King that much cause he had a really long strip not too long ago. But still I’m nervous on Tarots part cause Peanut and Tarot are one my favourite couples and they always seem to get into mystical trouble or in a starnge events. And we haven’t seen her on the new style so I’m still nervous on that part.
I’m with you on the fact that we haven’t seen Tarot’s new look.
And you still remember that little contest you started, right? I bet an arm and a leg.
Sorry pal but Argent Stonecutter made the closest prediction. So you have to choose which limb you’re gonna give away? Either the arm or the leg. So yeah… Sorry man <:(
Ha! see? No one expected that!
Alt-text: “I am assured of its superiority to other spheres”
I hope we see more of these (and other feral) characters!
It’s a new month, so don’t forget to vote for Housepets! every day!
I’ll make sure to.
Thanks! ^^
Mega-ball’s superiority trascends the consciousness of its power.
I wonder how he’s going to showcase Bruce the kangaroo?
Or maybe introduce some new characters, the coy coyotes.
*brick’d*
You can’t have too many canids.
“If food be the music of love, play on!”
… So you’re suggesting Max setup a lovely party? =3
Well, we are coming up on Valentine’s Day.
This just keeps getting better and better
And better and better ect.
When does Rick take guest comics?
Whenever he’s unable to post comics himself. Most recent case was during his hospitalization, but other cases have typically included a messed up computer that wouldn’t allow him to work on the comic. I’m pretty sure it will be announced when guest comics will be taken. Shouldn’t stop you from making one now for any future events, though.
If you elect to do a strip on your own, you are welcome to post it to the fan art gallery on the [ forums ].
Mega-ball’s superiority trascends the consciousness of its power.
So… I have a question.
Anyone know if someone has written any Pridelands stuff?
I think that would be cool.
Random comment is random
Please don’t make irrelevant posts.
Can I just say how much I like Truck’s design? He’s just so chubby/stocky and adorable.
I wonder… are Falstaff and Truck walking down a pathway? The trees seem to follow that sort of pattern.
Also, as far as story arcs go, I’d like to see if Spot has changed with the new style. We haven’t seen him in a while. And seeing King and Bailey doing some shopping would be awesome. (By the way, I mean shopping in the background. Too soon for another whole arc for them.)
Lol, almost too many characters to keep their statuses all up-to-date in my head.
He put up a sample of the new Spot style in his Twitter feed.
XD *snrrk* “party favors” are fun lol
Did anyone mention how cute those two are? Just saying.
O.O I’m kinda creeped out, just yesterday I read that quote… O.O
lol I just noticed, Truck somehow reminds me of Santa in the first panel xD
