Housepets!

I don’t think a lucky rabbit’s foot is usually very lucky for the rabbit. Dang it, Xane got to it before I did.

I guess Cory's not just a transient - he's already got a reputation.

I think its important that we all need someone like Jess in our lives, to be there and remind us "yes, sometimes is your fault."

Boy, the title of this one really pushes the PG rating...in your mind.
Pushing it out of my mind now

You know (I might be over-thinking it), but with what Zach was saying in the second panel, I wonder if he's being set up to bring Pete back from being mortal and will have to be the one to fix it...or I'm over-thinking it. Also, with the way Zach is drawn in the last panel, you can't help but want to give the poor rabbit a hug.

Wonder if Keene is looking for Zach.

The cat army! I had forgotten about that!

And you know something's not going to end well when the explanation starts with "there was this A named..."

oh and... huckster is coming up as a quite reputable profession in my dictionary

Listing his horrors but never his blame,
Zach looks to put young Jess in the frame
but she's too smart to not see through that
and kicks his assumptions in a cocked hat.
Angry and gullible's not a good combination
for a Rabbit risen above his standard station.
She's heard and made him tell his story
an action that guarantees pain for him and Cory
She sees her world for the cesspool it can be
He sees it for the hope of a future he can see
Optimist and pessimist in one cold trap...
They'll need to huddle before they nap.

Jess is certainly the "brutally honest" type, that's for sure.
Anyone else wondering how long they're gonna stay in the cage and who is going to find them?

Awww come on, Jessica. Sarcasm has its place, but give the poor bunny a break -,-

Looks like a serious breakdown in the last panel...

I'd say overnight.

Why should she? She's been trapped because she tried to rescue a guy who'd fallen for a con from someone she considers an obvious flim-flam male.

I know, it's very understandable why she reacted that way. But I still want to strangle her

Yes, Zach, sometimes it is our own dang fault.

So now I'm wondering why Jess isn't raising a question to what Zach just said. I guess in that situation, she knows it doesn't really matter.

Very interesting title.
I wouldn't be half surprised if kitsune suddenly appeared in a robe as a faint hologram to tell Zach to use the force/rabbits foot.
Now I remember the last time we saw the rabbits foot thing was in the temple with Keene, Sabrina and Karishad.
Jessica has some of the best facial expressions, second only to Kitsunes grin.

So if they're locals, our detective work is perfectly legit!

But that goes without saying.

I guess it's regional, or an obsolete meaning, I don't think I've heard the word used without the snake-oil-salesman connotation.

I think Zach needs a hug in the panel four.

Poor Zach, that was a bad fall, one of his feet is hurting, and now Jessica is hurting him. Great, Jessica knows Cory and what trickster he is, but come on, tell more about him. Jessica has already got how the thing ended for Zach (because of his fault...). She's being interested in what happened to him, hopefully she'll still help him. The comic strip title kinda fits, because is going to happen a naked verbal wrestling, already begun looking at the alt text.

I like that little pun in the title of the strip (mud sounds like mutt),
also good to hear that Cory is that famous so at least Jess knows him

How do you tell if mud is naked or not?

I mean, it's mud.

I wouldn't mind seeing Kevin wrestle a suspect down in the mud...

Oh yeah. Give the poor rabbit a break.

Surprised nobody mentioned the Zork reference yet

He REALLY WAS nearly eaten by a grue.



And the following strip was a "What's Opera Doc" reference.

I like the way that his eyes look in the sixth panel.

I think it may be appropriate to quote a certain wise old cartoon character, 'When we hit our lowest point, we are open to the greatest change'. Perhaps Zach will learn a thing or two from Jess. (I've no idea if the possum is named Jess or not)

Hm... does this mean someone will enter the Avatar State in the future? I know an avatar reference when I see it.

I just realized that the cage isn't attached to the ground. Couldn't they just lift it up?

Not so easy when you're IN it.

They could try King's trick to get out of the doggy carrier...

But they're trapped in a cavern... ravine... thing.

And they already have injuries.

Reach out and climb like in Pirates of the Caribbean 2?

So just to be clear, they both dislocated something? At first I only thought it was Zach's ankle, then I see Jessica's arm so its both?

They could be like Danno in 'Hawaii Five-O and recover absurdly quickly from injuries that should have killed him? (Steve pulls a rebar from his leg to prevent gangrene and not only does he not bleed out, he's RUNNING by the end of the ep.)

Back on track, Jess will beat up the trapper.

I mean, it's mud.

When it's dirty?

Best comic title.

I'm not sure if telling someone to shove their heads up their musk glands instead of someplace else makes it any more appropriate.

But we got some Jess character development, so we got that going for us, which is nice.

Brilliant! Wait... when isn't it dirty? It's made of dirt!

So does that mean that, like Housepets!, it's naked all the time?
