The comic itself will still have arcs. It's just the individual comics will have their own forum threads.

Personally, I think they should go ahead and still have single threads for arcs.

I like it this way, it's easier to tell what strip goes with each comment.

cockadoodledooooo the cow says moooooo! XD

That is not my cow, it goes 'Millennium hand and shrimp'. It is Foul Old Ron! Who would get along so well with Steve. They'd have so many wonderful conversations with themselves.

We have forums? How did I not notice this before?

Looks like you forgot, since you joined last year.

Delusional Steve is delusional.

Yeesh. I spent most of last Saturday at a shelter -- well, not me personally, of course (there isn't a lot of call for my kind) but we brought home a cute little 9-month-old puppy.

Adopt from Rescue Shelters, folks.

Because schizophrenic pets aren't pretty.

I guess a funny thing happened on the way to the forum...

At least I can say I'm glad he's out of the pound. I wonder if he is cognizant of how bad he has it.

I admit. I almost didn't realize who he was for a second.

And then I couldn't stop laughing!!!
DELUSIONAL STEVE IS BACK!!!

Not to mention we don't have three-digit page numbers for the longer arcs, now that the forum is the only official place for comments.

Yeah and he has a bedroom too. I love crazy Steve, this has made my day. I also feel like I could see him dressed up like military general and discuss battle plans with some general. Like Napoleon or someone.

Maybe it's just me, but this one-off is making me think of Delusional Steve having the voice of Prussia from Hetalia. I can even see him saying this when he looks at himself in the mirror. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIFNBqwXQPE

I think he's still in the shelter. That looks like the same kind of bunk as the first time he showed up, it's just got a blanket hanging over it.

I told you guys this one would still have some fridge tradgedy, unless Steve was somehow rehabilitated...

Speaking of "rehabilitation", whatever happened to the crazy PETA guy? He still in prison?

That's a good question... The fat one that tried to smother Fox...

You sir are awesome.
Have a gold star... Its in the shape of an owl.

Anyway, I must say that this is probably the funniest Housepets! strip I've read in a while. I actually completely forgot about who Delusional Steve was after his last appearance, but now? I don't think I'll be forgetting him again any time soon

I wonder, what would happen if we put Delusional Steve and Karishad together in the same room ?

That would create a wormhole of pure awe and chaos.

Wonder what color his eyes are? We probably won't know since it may be a long time before he become sane...if he ever does.

I noticed this is the first time a cat has black paw pads instead of pink.

oh wow steve....you got plans somewhere in your mind

...dream that's inside your head, which is inside your sleeping bag which is inside your tent which is set up inside your living room which is inside your apartment which is inside your apartment complex which is inside city limits which is inside the state of MinD which is inside the US border which is inside North America which is inside the atmosphere which is inside the solar system which is inside the Milky Way which is inside the universe...
...which is in the hands of God...

Any questions?




Are you referring to the big boss Rockstar Hawk?

EDIT: By the way, in that one, I 'hear' Hawk with the voice of Timmy Turner (Fairly Odd Parents)

Yes.

Who is playing U&U in this?

<Lurks>

I like it with the mad ones.

I hope it's not wrong that I read that post in the voice of Arnold Swarzenagger after seeing the word "terminated."

If I could see what went on deep inside Steve's mind, I'm sure I would be just as mad as he.

It may be that Steve has been adopted, and in his mind, when thinking of himself, he still sees himself at the shelter. He was in their a long time, and his imagination has more memory of that than any new home. If you notice, the 2nd panel is most definitely of his cot at the shelter, but it is not quite so clear if the 4th panel is the same cot or a bed that has similar bedding.

*squees like a girl*
I'll admit it: I never thought we'd see Delusional Steve again!

I'd so adopt Delusional Steve! He'd be so much fun...though I'd be afraid to leave him alone.

Hence the footnote on my previous comment:

Perhaps these guys?
Maybe not...

Though unlikely, I wouldn't be too surprised if Steve was somehow aware of that.

As a newcomer, there's a question I feel I need to ask.

It's of monumental importance.

I can't sleep without an answer.

What's U&U?

*gasp!* Maybe Steve is playing U&U! And these "dolls" are just the game figurines! That means that in the forest somewhere...

...now my head hurts

edit:
Welcome to the forums, Welshalfwit. U&U is basically cosmic D&D. Some of our animal characters are the figurines, and some mythological characters are the players. Rick has said he will post a summary to remind people what the deal with U&U is whenever it appears in an arc, so don't fret.

edit2:
aaaaaand Gecko beat me to it. *facepalm*

It's Universes and Unrealities.
As seen in this comic:
http://www.housepetscomic.com/2010/07/07/the-truth-the-whole-truth/

Thankee both. I can sleep again!

For those who my wonder why no avatar, the last two I used both ended up causing me trouble with chatboards (not profane but blocked) so I'm sans avatar for a while by personal choice. (Plus I don't know how to make them like you guys do.)

Here is Rick's latest summary of the U&U, so far.

Oh, and sorry about that XD

You know, reading that summary makes me think like a rules lawyer, and that reminds me of this scene in "But I'm a Cat Person". The Beings have to fight once they enter the arena, but these two masters have figured out a loophole.

I could just see King and Tarot sitting down and arm-wrestling for the contest while Pete and Dragon watch in horror.

King: "Well, shucky darn, Tarot, you have defeated me! I guess Pete has to spend a few years as a mortal..."

I do belive Steve got a new home, and I know just WHO adopted him:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvZ9l9RP9FM

9-month PUPPY?!!! Must have been adult sized by then!

And, yes, whatever happenned to that fat PETA guy?

If what happened to Joel was any indicator, the fat one probably got served some SERIOUS justice.

And good riddance. PETA is scum, they always will be, no matter how many good deeds they do.

Joel's sentence was going to be "time served".

Fatty's probably out already.
