Always take guidance from weretiger Res. He once destroyed a demigod like that.

Just sayin', it'd be a seriously missed opportunity if Kit didn't sense that burst of Mana right about now and weighed the option to bring him to join the battle...

I noticed his Pupils, or the lack of. Did the size altering stay with him too? Cuz uhh... I wouldn't mind seeing Giant Were-Res one more time either... :shock:

Yeah, but this is apparently a disconnected bit from the current story, so might not be even happening now. But seeing Res brought in for support would be fun.

It is great that he still has that form. I doubt it will be used in what I assume is the upcoming battle but I would like to see it honestly.

So Res is gonna stomp down from Canada, crash through the dome, and punch Eudoant, LI'l Dino-demon, and guests back to Pandemonium?

Oh, this is definitely going to be a heck of a New Year's Eve party!

Love the alt text for this one and, same time, it looks like Res gained some confidence since last we saw him! Also, if I was that fan, I'd probably shut up the moment i see Hulk Res (Though i wonder if any of his female fans would fall in instant love with him now, seeing him all bulked up...heh probably would make Jata jealous).

Every frame of Res is great, but I am mostly distracted by thinking about the logistics of Res' weretiger form and how Res threw a brick at the masquerade.

Oh, the polemics are continuing. :P Yeah, some readers look to be too much used with such stories, without nothing bad and dangerous happening to the characters... :roll: I agree with your point, Res, and the readers who don't accept it, should look to other stories and writers. ;) Eheh, you can't hide that's you who really writes the stories, and not your mom. :P Oh wow, that's so nasty to say! :x You made Res angry, and somehow, he's becoming again a were-tiger, despite he hasn't anymore a paper bag on the head and isn't inside the now destroyed temple... :?

I think Res' dip into the mana pool is why he still has his powers to the degree his does, though I wouldn't be surpised one or the other if the others keep some of their power. Other than Tarot and Sabrina, who switched over to mortal magic, Zach was the other one to use magic outside the temple but it was before it was destroyed. (The gargoyles are also animate after its destruction) Maybe the cult is still empowering Zach, or maybe it was how close he was to the still standing temple.

I am not sure what is going to happen in the next comic, but I am looking forward to it, whether it is magical or mundane.

Author tracts don't have the best reputation, but I think this one was handled respectively and with care. And as for how it relates to me, half-way through the last arc I expected Fox to end being in a worse position by the end of the arc and in my defense that is because I didn't see Winter coming and as far as I can, nobody did. Game of Thrones gave everyone like 6 seasons worth of warning, but I kid, I think it was a good arc, most people seemed to guess there was a Winter and it was just the reveal of who he will be is the twist, and I look forward to how Fox's character arc progresses bumps and all.

Nice to see that Res has a handle on his weretiger form now and can change into it whenever he feels the need to. That should make Grape VERY happy! :lol:

Lotta folks have been looking forward to Winter and Autumn since Summer and Spring showed up ... so this might be the arc where they get their wish.

When Res senses a little threat,
His body makes a flash-quick bet
That it prob'ly should be tiger time
So don't complain on the author's dime.

Poor cat, never getting due credit,
But this fan just doesn't get it,
That stories don't always go as planned,
And story arcs can be short or grand.
You're a wonderful person! You can do this! Yes, you, person reading this!

I take it we won't be able to see the aftermath of Res hulking out. So I decided there are two options that could happen. Either he goes medieval on the audience member or the audience member and several others run away screaming in terror.

She was better before she and Sonny Bono divorced, and he wasn't exactly a great singer.
