Re: 2016/03/21 - Bun on the Run
Cute full-body-from-the-back shot of Zach on that last panel. I like how it was drawn so well you can tell from his posture what his feelings at that moment are - the ears, slumped shoulders, etc. Not sure I've seen that sort of depiction before, or at least not for that character. Given how long th...

Re: "Which housepets! character are you" quiz
Without taking a quiz, I would just ask folks two questions: which character would you like to be, and which character are you probably actually like? For example, I'd like to be Great Kitsune - clever, witty charming - but I think I'm more like Miles - older, responsible, good natured but a bit clu...

Actually, any person who has worked in corporate America, like me, is all too familiar with the boss buying stuff but not getting enough people to run it. They call it running lean and mean. So that last line made me laugh out loud.

I dunno, I think King still tends towards a little self-pity sometimes, or at least self-centeredness. "I want my rights!" is a cry I have heard before, usually from people who are all about what they "deserve" and not at all caring of how others feel. For a fictional character r...
