Rock regrets letting the Kids run free
During the span of the forest night.
Cory’s had success, it seems,
and the Wolves are plunged into plight.
They've dug themselves out of this one
By playing the game smarter than Rock
A Wolf being smarter than a Ferret?
Surely not totally a shock?
They’ll be back on point tonight,
Hurt and angry and mad.
Cory better not try any of this again
Or he’s very likely to be had.

I mean... how long should we keep calling them 'the cubs?' I mean, they're old enough to join the family business at this point.

I think that's the joke: he did give the instructions. they were pretty much told to do nothing (even though they were actually busy) so he can't punish them for following directions.

Seeing them all grown-up is making me feel old, atop of me once having an old clunky Gameboy and only being faintly aware of a DS. Though, given the timeline, I assume they've aged more or less at the same rate as actual wolves than people. Too cool.

That's cool. 8-) The ex wolf cubs are smart like foxes. :D It's Miles who's less smart, if he says so concerning the respecting of the own responsibilities. :P But, I partially agree that at night, indeed, nothing happens. Usually. ;) Eh, they succeeded to steal the stuff, now the show is in difficulties... Poor Rock, who has to blame he, now? :P

The comic is rated G, which means all characters have to be straight.
So I am going to assume they're all straight :lol:

err, true...wait I don't think those kangaroos are y'know. So even if they are I am pretty sure Rick can't say anything without ruining his rating.

Not true in the slightest. there are plenty of works of that rating, or comparable ratings under other systems, out there with non heterosexual characters, they just have to avoid overt references to sexuality in general, and keep their romantic refrences/plot-points subtle to get under the radar. (IE: it's rarely open, but periodical implied in the work, or given as 'word of god' by the creator after the film/book/show is out)

Also, considering the author and the one setting the rating standard in this case are the same person, biases such as that one may not even apply.

Well, I have been wrong before...I am okay with that but I am also not a Hippocratic
so, that is really no different then if the characters are straight and you cannot tell the difference regardless, if you do not understand the reference therefore this conversation doesn't change anything...also I could'a sworn the rating was G. In essence rather the chars are heterosexual or not does not apply if sex is not incorporated. Which isn't, if it was then it'd at least be rated teen I believe. Now pleeeeeeeease stop bombing on me. I am not perfect y'know, not human but not perfect either.

I think you mean either "not a hypocrite" or "not hypocritical", Hippocratic is something else entirely.

This right here, is the issue. Not specified ≠ automatically straight. To assume it does shows a significant bias. That implied bias is likely what the backlash was in reaction to.

That said, i apologise if either of my posts has come off as aggressive, they were merely meant to illustrate a point.

No. The comic's rating is PG and it's been PG from the beginning. Also even if it was G, that doesn't mean you can't show homosexuals in it. There's nothing wrong with that.
Now pleeeeeeeease stop bombing on me. I am not perfect y'know, not human but not perfect either.
Please don't use the "I'm not perfect!" excuse. Cause that is one of the most cop out excuse someone can make when they get called out right next to the "It's my opinion!" excuse.

Uh, non-alpha males? Always remember, the alpha male, or female, is the one that takes charge of a situation. Since that one had the forethought to record their orders, that should make him the alpha. Once again, in my humble opinion.
