[ Cake And Punch Will Be Served ]

Title Text: And Grape slumps off of the sofa onto Peanut like a soggy rag

Sergeant Ralph always has the best ideas. :3

(Also, Poncho remains the most rad of the wolves.)

Well I find it both interesting and not very surprising that the wolves don't care about Fido dating Sabrina, I wonder how this will effect Foxs and Binos out look on things. (likely not to much really)

This must have had a lot of planning, they sure can set up that epic background quickly. XD

Somebody should try submitting that to Mythbusters. Is clothes shattering/ripping through muscle flexing something remotely possible?

Wow, the panel with all the wolves is just awesome! And I like how Jata managed to explode the part of the suit he wasn't even wearing!
Great job Rick. I've been reading Housepets for a while now, but this one prompted me to venture into the forums for the first time. Can't wait to see how this arc concludes.

Ok, today's comic is the TOP EPIC of the whole HP history! :o :o :o
Yay for the wolves doing the right thing! Boo and hisses to Sarge Ralph, though his dedication to duty is to be admired.

The Miltons 'own' the wolves.

Hmm...
You're misunderstanding. Because pets lack the constitutional rights of humans doesn't mean they can't be detained or arrested, they just aren't given the Miranda warnings.

The definition of panels five and six looks like it took rather more time and effort, and it paid off quickly. Dragonball-esque, but without filler episodes, perfect for Jata's shirt shredding. I hope the wolves remember something of their zoo tranquilizing, that'd be a warm up for all this. Sadly for Fido, it seems he wasn't much of a match for Jata in combat, his turn didn't last very long. With all this, I'm not even daring to imagine what the look on Keene's face would be.

Fido's not the only one with some foresight.

Yes, yes he is.

With sewing made for it (or just bad), tearing is easy.

Welcome to the forums! I'm not sure if that was his jacket or not, but I would definitely like to believe so.

Love, Love, LOVE Poncho's dramatic pose!

In the state of fair conflict and battle,
the Wolves can't stand to see a mis-match,
Posing only to strike a great heroic stance,
Miles lays down the honourable challenge
and the war begins again from scratch.

Poncho leans happily into the wind he feels
as Cousin Rodney leads the Cub scout pack
Daryls abound throughout the grey team
and Uncle Deadeye is ready at the back.
And, right at the front? There's their Jack.

Rocky screams as they've broke his dreams
and stand ready to fight after the right
has slipped from their exclusive use.
Ralph bravely piles up onto our Miles
and the conflict continues – out of our sight.

Ok, who else wants wallpaper-sized versions of the wolf pose as well as the epic Jata panel? That would be pretty sweet.

So the question is, who will or won't pay attention to the arrest? Is this the end of the fight or will it continue? At least Fido has some backup now.

also, is Fido's nose bleeding?

He had backup before, but it's off playing cornhole with Keene's backup.

Okay, among (so far) foreseeable consequences:

Wolves may get arrested. Their job with Keene seems terminated on the spot, unless Keene himself apologizes and forgives them.
Fido will likely get expelled, or at least suspended from the K9U. Bino will have him expelled from the GODC.
Fox may or may not be mad at Fido for hiding the secret. This in turn may rekindle Fox's suspects about King and Joel's watch...
King starts questioning his marriage with Bailey, considering WHO their sponsor is at the light of these events. This won't stop King from loving Bailey, but...timeo danaos et dona ferentes, etc.
Fido stays with Sabrina, YAY!

Oh, yes, and hope Grape gives Jata a good kick under the tail for him being an even more total jerk -poor prince, all of a sudden you don't like anymore the idea of 'animals helping each other', eh?

Woah...just woah...

REALLY really love the lighting/shading/coloration for panels 4,5 and 6.
Makes it look like Rick's completely shifted his art style! :)
(come to think of it, he should do this more often)

Also, loving Ralph's line. If I'm ever becoming a cop, I have GOT to scream "EVERYONE IS UNDER ARREST" at least once :P

Again, epic...just epic :3

I really think this would make for an awesome arc, or at least a few comics, though I'm probably just biased.

I wonder if Rick has anything planned...? It seemed like it was dropped too early. Just my opinion anyway.

And now that Miles is no longer standing on them...what's PETA up to?

PETA : See! This is exactly what we're talking about! Animals can't be trusted in captivity! One minute they're getting married, the next you got an epic dog/leopard/wolf fight on your hands! Won't SOMEBODY think of the children?

The idea that PETA may be right in front of the television may be an even harder blow to Keene than the epic failure of his marriage plans :twisted:

Okay, now it's official. This is the BEST ARC EVER!
This strip has become one of my favorites of the whole comic so far! I can't even describe anything of it without making a wall of text so I'd better shut up and wait till I cool down a bit to post all my thoughts about this strip.

By the way, I am the only one suspecting that Sabrina has become a "runaway bride"? Since no one was paying her attention she surely took the chance to get her way out of all this nightmare. Since she is at Keene's mansion, she's probably near to the forest (maybe she is heading toward Pete's temple :o ). And now the witch bride hunt begins!
