Re: 2019/09/06 - Up All Night For Good Fun
Either King is even shorter than I thought or Marion is bigger. Or both Marion seems to be only about a squirrel-head shorter than King. I'm wondering if Marion might be sitting on a book or something. But Marion was a little shy of being up to Jessica's neck, and King is a little bit shorter than ...

Re: 2019/09/04 - Well When You Say It Like That
King's probably thinking, "This sounds less believable every time I tell this story." Something just crossed my mind though. When Marion encountered Kevin and Ralph, I'm wondering if they were just out on patrol, or if they were in the area because they were investigating someone or someth...

Re: 2019/09/02 - High Four
The fat PETA guy (did we ever get his name? It wasn't Joel) tried to smother him. The K9s thought he was pretty close. I always assumed he was Orwell Johnson from Real Stories of the K9PD. He looks liked him, but the strip has no tag for Orwell or PETA so it's still a bit ambiguous. http://www.hous...

That'd be a fun idea for an arc. There could be a twist where King has become secretly obsessed with a game on his computer and he ends up becoming Deevee's rival.

Ta. Generally they're my thoughts on the intricacies of what's going on and the larger plotlines hidden by the current one. Have they told Fido who he was? If not, is Fido wondering Why not? I don't think they told Fido, but his identity isn't really an important detail to the situation so he might...

i agree a bit of that might be a bit heavy for this comic as well. But it has been hinted that King's past was a bit dark even before PETA and some of that might come to light. Him getting a computer was kind of out of the blue and I feel that much like the coin, it is in some form, a Checkov's Gun ...

I’m thinking that King will help, despite how much he freaks out he is a decent guy and he would be able to show Marion how to adapt. Are the Miltons still involved with the ECP? If so, Marion might be able to contact them through King or the wolves, and the ferrets could help our squirrel complete...

Maybe this is just me, but I'm seriously thinking that all of this is leading to more Temple Crashers. Anybody else agree? Not possible. The temple can't get MORE crashed than it is! There's still Dragon's temple in Egypt. Although I don't think anyone but Craig and Draig know about it's existence.
