Then explain this?

Rule of Funny, Cartoon Logic, or Karishad. Take your pick of reasons. It's been stated multiple times that Kitsune never had an avatar for the game, as he was the Game Master (or whatever that was called, I don't do D&D) and doesn't get one.

Karishad's relationship with the universe IS Rule of Funny. When he's around, the universe bends to cause whatever happens to be funny at the time, without (many) lasting consequences.

I don't think this is a cop out- I mean, a dream. He was probably in court for tax evasion or something similar, given he was doing things like Theme Park World specifically to avoid taxes. How he died, though—if he actually died—is still beyond me.

We can't be sure that this was a dream. For now it looks like flashback.

Now that I think about it, the problem with his visit in Heaven being just a dream (aside from the fact it wouldn't really make that good of a story) is that Keene's actually never seen Cerberus before. For him to know her precise look, voice and current occupation, it would have to be at least some kind of a vision.

Attributing it to this "dead sleep"... sure... but that would mean it could happen to any ferret. It could be a "method", but there has to be a different cause.

Not to mention it's only called "dead sleep" because the ferret appears to be dead when it's just sleeping.

I didn't suggest it was a *dream*, rather he was in such a deep sleep it confused the universe.

Could be, Rick's been known to psyche us out before.

The nice thing about writing it this way is it can be a dream if Rick decides he doesn't want to pursue it, or something else if not. So it's a cop-out~ Not like this are always bad!

That's sorta what i am getting from this....

What if he woke up just then and dreamed all of it? Like... somehow his dream created an avatar for Heaven?

What if the comic crashes due to a paradox being produced?

Then it'll reboot with them having always been in the Gallifrax dimension.

That's not a patch to cover a hole, it is a style of some blazers and sport jackets. There is one on each elbow.
