Man 13 years of this comic. That is quite amazing. Looks like everyone is in some real trouble now. Hopefully Tarot has a back up plan

Whoa, we've reached the end of another year already? Man, time flies...

Also, is there no Growth Spells in that Book?

"Daugicile!" Such a potty mouth for a little dog.

I'm thinking still that Kitsune is going to be slapped back by his boss and this will be part of the resson.

Anyone reminded of this? I'm not sure if I should more irritated with Tarot for trying again to be the one who saves the day or with Kitsune for dodging something that's actually his responsibility this time and just letting her have a go at it.

Kitsune and Kix are in real snuggle, not real trouble.

M’lady, you must Kix him from bed,
the dude has a world he’s to save.
I wouldn’t ask this normally
but the threat is totally grave.
She overestimates herself
and it’s not under her control;
if you don’t hurry to the fight
someone might lose more than their soul.
Bladders are weakening up there
as they see more than his big toe.
When all the sidekicks fall away
it’s time the big guy has a go.

They say 13 is an unlucky number. On that note, the final panel seems pretty appropriate for the occasion.

What do you mean this time? Dodging something that's good responsibility is basically all that he does.

Firstly, congrats on 13 Years of Housepets!

Also, something is telling me that next part of Heckraiser is going be some major character development for Tarot (Heck, this whole arc feels like a Tarot arc).

indeed, sir. And we've learned - as many long suspected - Tarot doesn't do her homework.
Why do I keep expecting Res, Lester, Dallas, Sabrina, and a whole bunch of folks from the last Temple escapade to show up? Sentimental, I guess.......

Considering how messed up and borderline demonic Kitsunes are in Japanese Folklore, I seriously hope he answers a swift "NO!" and means it every single time. :(

Kitsune needs a bit more self-awareness.

He convinced Bahamut he had it in the bag, too, and here he is letting things go downhill for the lulz again.

Serve him right if Bahamut has to step in and pull his fuzzy bubblegum out of the fire and he gets banned from meddling for a human lifetime or so.

Oh, it's like demon Steward is being sarcastic with Tarot. ;) Alright, there's a page for mortals turned into demons using that, but there's no info about it. Practically, this is the first time that it happens... :? Great Kitsune, you should do something now, and at the end, Tarot was wrong thinking to manage all this alone. :| Listen to your mate Kix and go to her, it's time that you must do your part in this mission, after all... :roll: No more time to relax. :P
Congrats for the thirteen years reached! :D

The more fitting punishment would probably being forced to actually do the job he agreed to when tried use this dimension as his game board, possibly entirely as ploy to depower his friends for vaguely defined reasons.

If he was just de-powered like Pete and Dragon he could simply spend time with either Joey and his group or Kix so it wouldn't be a punishment. I'm thinking that being forced to only look out for the Earth and not interact in any way would be a lot worse.

To be fair, Kitsune has always been in control of the situation, which is why he's so chill. Here, he's just underestimating the threat. He got so worked up about it earlier but now that he's in the danger zone and not much has actually happened before him, he isn't really understanding the gravity of the situation.

That really isn't an excuse though so he can't use that. His job was to protect the Earth and it looks like this is the second time that he is letting it fall by the wayside. He could easily be punished for this especially if Bahamut has to step in.

Of course though, not everything could be as it seems... ;)

I think this situation is a little different than Temple Crashers 2. Kitsune there, I think, knew what was happening and was willing and able to step in if he had to. He just wanted to allow the mortals a chance to save the day.

I think here he's unaware of how dire things are getting. I don't think he knows that there is a monster downtown at that moment. He's expecting a call if something gets worse.

Which makes me realize that Tarot and the others are likely safe from fatal physical harm. If one of them suddenly showed up in Heaven the normal way, it would likely alert Kitsune (Or others who would tell Kitsune)

I suspect, with our Kitsune, it depend on who we are talking about. Kix? Brush it off no matter how vicious the attack. Someone with perhaps some reason to be annoyed at him, like Marion or Tarot? Brush it off but with a (mostly) friendly warning.

Someone who is generally at least boarering on cruel, like say a Bino or Duchess? A lesson would likely ensue.

Someone past redemption like Steward? I'd want to be in the next county at least.

I don't see why it wouldn't be out as Rick is taking a hiatus from making new comics and the print edition is actually the collection of old comics. However I'm not gonna to claim to know what Rick is planning on doing.

As much as you may hate this,
There's a first time for everything,
But there's no time for reading,
Kix, do you know what's he's gonna bring?

Nicodemus of Hallicarnassus,
Who the heck is that?
Insanity's being served at the plate,
And Tarot, dear pom, it's your turn at bat.
You're a wonderful person! You can do this! Yes, you, person reading this!
