(if they knew he was King) At least, I hope that would be the case.
Well if Pete changed him back Pete could clear that up by erasing everyone memories of what happened because he is trying to teach Joel a lesson and if he learns it he might help him out like that. But then again Pete's a jerk so you never know. And that fact does lend some credence to Joel staying King or a least he would want to anyway.ctcmjh wrote:If King turned back into Joel, I would enjoy seeing him as Sasha's owner instead of her dad that she has now.
But one big point we all seem to have forgotten is that Joel is not only in trouble with the law for kidnapping and resisting arrest, but he (technically) broke out of prison. I don't think the cops would be on his side...
Wait who said the sops have sides? Cops do their own thing, so they'd probably taze him as they say 'we want to help you!'.ctcmjh wrote:If King turned back into Joel, I would enjoy seeing him as Sasha's owner instead of her dad that she has now.

I Disagree I personally feel that sooner or latter this comic like all good things will come to an end and at least one ark before that happens King will be Joel again. But I like many others truly hope it doesn’t come for at least a few decades. On an Additional note I agree with ctcmjh after Joel’s experience as King he would make a much better owner then whoever his name is.Barkeron wrote:

And I agree with the above quote. Whats the point of changing King back to Joel if that was going to happen? By the way, I would love to see a King/Sasha pairing, considering the fact that they both do have some similar predicaments in their lives. But at the same time, Pete is pretty much jerk anyways. Or is he a jerk with a heart of Gold?
Because, obviously, Rick will still be writing these comics in his middle sixtieschronocrosser wrote: I Disagree I personally feel that sooner or latter this comic like all good things will come to an end and at least one ark before that happens King will be Joel again.

I just hope that this doesn't turn out like so many other comics and he never finishes it at all.Teh Brawler wrote:Because, obviously, Rick will still be writing these comics in his middle sixtieschronocrosser wrote: I Disagree I personally feel that sooner or latter this comic like all good things will come to an end and at least one ark before that happens King will be Joel again.

More like a Wheel44R0NM10 wrote:Don't worry about the past, there's the future!
Don't worry about the future, there's the present!
He who controls the present controls the past, who in tern controls the future!
In other words, Housepets! is awesome and will never end in our hearts!
That's more then just cheezy, that's a whole block of cheese there...
We should sabotage Rick's university career so that he becomes unemployed and has to financially rely on the comic.IceKitsune wrote:I just hope that this doesn't turn out like so many other comics and he never finishes it at all.Teh Brawler wrote:Because, obviously, Rick will still be writing these comics in his middle sixtieschronocrosser wrote: I Disagree I personally feel that sooner or latter this comic like all good things will come to an end and at least one ark before that happens King will be Joel again.

This makes me think of the DMFA filler comic of the artist, Amber Williams, as a homeless person holding a sign saying "Will draw good for food".... (I think the words were misspelled)....Sleet wrote:Great idea! It can't be that hard to subsist on a webcomic, right?
...Right?
If... things like Megatokyo, Least I Could Do, Looking For Group, Snafu, User Friendly and xyzwldzuzkdkl can make that much money, no.Sleet wrote:It can't be that hard to subsist on a webcomic, right?

If you're not a particularly pleasant person, we could still measure the number of people that could potentially like you by percentage. So let's say that your personality only appeals to about 1% of the people, while someone else who is nicer appeals to 30%. All he needs to do to match your numbers is to make sure that the greatest amount of people know about you so that your 1% is as large as his 30%. Sure, you also have a higher percentage of people who hate you, but when you're talking about a group of people that gives you money, you only need a solid figure of people, not a percentage.Sleet wrote:To make money you don't have to be good, you just have to make people like you.

A Housepets! book has been discussed in a previous thread [Link]. I still support the idea and would definitely buy one. I'd even pre-order if rick wanted to take preorders to build up some funding for it.RockstarRaccoon wrote:Introduce a bunch of new characters: you know you want to.
Edit: I see we're talking about making money off the comic. My advice is to do what I do: make money off what you can and don't worry about the rest. You have merchandise and all that right? What about publishing a few arcs in a book? It's not hard to make some extra spending money off a few things, and sometimes you might as well.
I would normally say that this would be a bad idea, but I also would have said that before the point at which my favorite pet was introduced (Tarot). Rick has a huge talent for maintaining all his characters believably, and yet stay focussed enough that it doesn't get boring.RockstarRaccoon wrote:Introduce a bunch of new characters: you know you want to.
I think that Grape, Peanut, Tarot, Max, Bino, Fido, Joey (and his weird friends), Sabrina, Spo, Marvin, Tiger, Zach, Sasha, Fox, King/Joel, Pete, Rex, Fiddler, Keys, Daisy, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Mr. Bigglesworth, Lana, Keene, Duke, Rock, Simon, Pit, Squeak, Spot (as well as Stripe, the Bad Guys, the Cyborg, and the Orphans), all the woodland critters, The Zoo animals, Jasper, Pridelands characters, Kevin, Sgt. Ralph, the other K-9 unit dogs, Rufus, the Barn Cats, Daryl, Miles, Lucretia, Mile's cubs, and the various humans that have appeared are enough characters for now. But there's always room for more!RockstarRaccoon wrote:Introduce a bunch of new characters: you know you want to.
