I could see that being what happened. Then again he might not be dead at all still and this was just Henry trying to help him by teaching him not to stress out so much, making this some kind of dream I would guess.Xane wrote:I guess he stressed himself out so much trying to fix everything by himself he had a stroke.

It is? but were only on book 6.... Also, i'm more confused than ever now. He wants to be the one who fixes everything. is that a crime? I would fix the world if everyone would just let me... but for some reason everyone gets all awkward when you try and convince them you should be supreme global overlord.. *sighs*Saturn381 wrote:Took you awhile to finally get it Keene.
Also, Wednesday is going to be the end of year eight strip. I can't wait!

I think the point is that Keene was feeling dispirited because he felt that he needed to fix everything. In reality, there's no way he can fix everything or even everything that's wrong with animal rights. But he was letting that get to him and make him feel like there was nothing worth fighting for anymore. All that is sort of like what you said, but the underlying message is that even if he can't be the one to fix everything, he can still make things better. Mr. Milton is proud of Keene for what he is doing to help animals and humans come together, not disappointed for what Keene can't achieve. So Keene shouldn't let the disappointment he feels stop him from doing good things in this world.Adoring Fan wrote:I almost feel like this strip is giving a bad message "The world is a terrible place and no matter what you do it will never get any better, so don't even bother trying". I mean... Noone else was helping and Keene is really the only one with the ability to push it forward at all, you would think his "father" would be happy for him striving for his dreams. I dunno... I just want to see how this ends so hopefully it will make sense... As it stands i am more confused than when Pete and spirit first revealed themselves...

He's realising he cannot fix everything. It was killing him to try. Now he might learn to choose his battles and accept he may only be a stepping stone on the path to equality.SuperStar wrote:Hey, uh, am I the only missing what he just learned here? "The one who fixes everything", wasn't that already his goal?
Nope, I mentally cannot read it without using the voice.Hlaoroo wrote:Am I the only one who can't read the title of this strip without hearing it in Mufasa's voice?
