So is the update schedule now Tuesdays and possible Fridays instead of possibly Thursdays or did Rick just update on the wrong day accidentally?

I just wanna know if this is gonna be a regular thing or if it is only happening once.

I'm guessing it's a one-off. Rick did promise Fridays after all.

The schedule as given is at least once a week on Tuesday or Friday (or both if twice a week). Might be nice to get a guarantee on Tuesday (as it has been the regular day thus far), but I haven't seen it myself

Wait a second? The second occasional comic was always Friday and not Thursday? Why did I think it was Thursday instead? Well no matter. I'm just glad Rick is back!

When might we expect the page for The Know Nothing Party to be found? Would love to see the week's submission.

If we didn't get it today on Tuesday I assume that we will get it on Thursday then.

Yeah that is what I meant. I still am trying to keep track of this new comic schedule since he started again. I know there is maybe one on Tuesday but I keep forgetting the second optional one updates on Friday and not Thursday.

I seem to recall him saying 'AT LEAST one update a week', not 'one update a week'.

Soooo while we're getting the new routine stabilize, just enjoy the comic, eh? :)

I am enjoying it. But its hard to know which day he will choose to update to the next strip.

Apparently, "The Future" is one comic a week unless you join on to Patreon and get one plus a "sneak preview".

On days where there seems to be no update here, it can probably be guessed that the day went to another of Rick’s works.

Of course it would help if one actually had waited until the actual second update day before making a determination on that though. :P

But to be fair, I thought the second possible update day was Thursday instead of Friday also.

One, I made that mistake as well, two, for the past year and a half, I've had difficulty remembering which day we were on, myself.

I never had a problem remember what day of the week it was. I just thought and sometimes do still think that the comic now updates on Thursday possibly instead of Friday.

Ah, well, I think Rick's got us on a regular schedule now. When you're retired, every day is Saturday.

I haven't even gotten a job yet so I can't think of retiring. O.o

Think of what you're doing currently as practice. ;)

Out of curiosity, will there be no more "guest strips"? I miss those.

I reckon there will be. Rick will still go on vacation from time to time after all.

I have a feeling that one might end up coming up sooner than we think.

December, probably, with #14 coming sometime next year (which will contain everything after his hiatus, including the end of this arc). Afterwards, I'm not sure. Will be curious to see what Book 15 will be like when the switch over to the new story formats takes place.

If I had to take a guess, it’ll be planned when Rick feels there’s enough for a collection, which may mean more time between books.

If that is the case then so be it. Just as long as he continues to release the books when he is ready I am sure everybody will have no problems waiting for them to be released! :)

And ... if they do ... they'll just have to tough it out. :(

What else can they do? Its ultimately up to Rick what he is gonna do and when he will release them if ever.

Honestly with as much negative feedback I saw about the comic on the Discord server I was worried that Rick would decide there WASN'T a future and just end it. Part of me still is. :?

I can assure you, there'll still be HP comics. He has confirmed that it will continue after this, but they'll will be a small break after this arc is over before he starts up the next stories for HP.

That is good to know he will be. I just wonder how long this break is gonna be. Short to him might be long to everybody else.

Probably be a few weeks or a month at the most.

Then I guess we will all just wait and see on that and see what happens. I'm sure Rick has it all under control.

I guess that's why it's called "Discord". Maybe I should be grateful that the soreheads spare us the bile on this forum by raising their complaints elsewhere. At any rate, I'll be interested to see where Housepets goes from here. :)

Funnily enough that is what a few people are now moaning about on the Discord server. Won't name names but it got so bad we had to make a room for people who had negative opinions on the strip and needed to vent.
