Re: 2019/12/06 - My Eyes Have Seen the Glory
Kitsune's "real" form (while extremely subjective given what has been told to us about perception of reality from Pete way way early in the comic) is unsurprisingly mostly because of the origins of such mythological entities such as Kitsune, Dragons(Eastern), and yes even Gryphons. We hav...

Re: 2019/12/06 - My Eyes Have Seen the Glory
Ask and you shall receive. I can honestly say that this was not how I expected it to go, though I think it can be confirmed, Lois is a Kitsune fangirl. Okay, I don't normally do this, but the way that Lois and Kitsu are posed in the first panel makes me want to insert this as the second panel: https...

Re: 2013/12/04 - A Taste of Heaven
I'm sure people have asked before, but did Keene ever interact with Kitsu? Now that I think about it, I don't think the two have ever been on the same page before. Or at least not while they were in the same room.

Props for Marion for not being phased by talking to Kitsune. This is a huge milestone for him. Meeting a celestial deity from Heaven is not something that everyone gets the chance to do.
