Yeah, but before he wasn't contemplating killing himself and didn't scream at his best friend.
Elijah was bodily translated into Heaven without dying, so there's precedent for not having to kill yourself to get there.

And Mungo was being a jerk and a dateblocker.

Fair point.
Sarah was afraid, so she lied and said, “I did not laugh.” But [The LORD] said, “Yes, you did laugh.” - Genesis 18:15 (NIV).

There are Jewish, Christian, and Muslim traditions that support the idea that Enoch "walked into Heaven". The Genesis reference (5:21-24) is ambiguous on that point, though.

I'll let Mungo's depiction in today's strip speak for me about him. It is Christmas. ;)

Like others have said, Mungo is a therapy dog but not a PSYCHOLOGIST that can help and it looked like he was unintentionally making things worse. A therapy dog gives comfort. I know Mungo knows that because he was trying to comfort Keene after he was nearly murdered by PETA. I don't think he knows that it doesn't make him qualified to be someone you can talk to.

Not really because he showed up and talked to him after his future self who is "Winter" now managed to get through to him. Mungo did show up but didn't talk to him.

Yeah, I think we are left to assume that, at least, Fox is assuming in that moment that Mungo would later be Autumn, but there is no confirmatuon. In fact, there isn't any mention that there even IS a fourth, it's assumed only because there are four seasons.

That being said, I think there is a fourth and the most likely suspect is Mungo. Also, I think that they have yet to meet the females on Earth just yet.

I'm also wondering since if we assume that Mungo becomes Autumn if the two others are actually huskies also.

To be fair, all we know for sure is that Fox retains his (aged) appearence as far as we see with an alteration in color. Given the nature of Heaven, it's possible the Spring and Summer weren't even dogs in life. Though I tend to think that they were Huskies on Earth.

We will just have to wait and see what type of dog they are or what species they are when they make an appearance on Earth.

Actually, it should be IF because we don't know what Rick has planned.
