Aww, I was hoping for redemption or at least humiliation for Jata. I didn't want him to die :(

Well if cats can fit in any box, then they should be able to bend in almost any way XD

The third panel is the most epic scene I have witnessed in my life.

He smiled! Batman Deadeye smiled!
Also, I love the 'single leaf blows past' silent panel. Reminds me of Samurai Jack. (Loved that show; hope to see a conclusion movie or additional season.)

That smile. Never mess with old soldiers. Jatta should've known better.

Indeed!

Uncle Deadeye has just become my #1 choice if I had to choose someone to fight at my side in battle.

Welp, Jata got what he deserved. Nobody messes with Uncle Deadeye!

Anyway, the sky is getting darker in that last panel. Hmm, perhaps the arc will end with a kiss in the rain between Fido and Sabrina?

I doubt Jata is dead, Deadeye probably just twisted or broke his arm. He's really one of those stoic, impassive, capable types it would seem. Like Peanut, nothing phases him, and we finally get to see an alternative expression of his! This strip is getting some action drama!

Ok, I'm officially convinced that Uncle deadeye is a master of Kung fu.
From now on I'll call him, Uncle Shifu of the Deadeye.

I warned you once, I told what I would do.
You took no note; you didn't think it true.
I told you I would stand to murder you.
You really thought I wouldn't see it through?
I am the master, the hidden giant Sensei
You are the one who will learn to fear Grey
I heard you humble my family here today.
You will now learn what it is to pay.
I finally, for the first time, let a smile appear.
You're the most deserving of a beating here.
I know that, to those who argue, you turn a blind ear
You're about to lose them, then you'll disappear.
I'll break you in two without a sweat.
You'll soon be calling your royal vet.
I am Deadeye, noble warrior and proud
You are nothing.

Can't save the bride, can't win against the wolves. Jata is getting schooled in so many ways it's not even funny.

Or actually, yeah that's pretty funny.

Indeed. This whole sequence is probably one of the coolest moments of the whole comic.

...

And painful.

...

In fact, I wonder if Jata is actually dead...oh well, guess we'll find out.

Never underestimate the blind. Especially if he was living in the wild for likely most of his life.

Well, cats are rather limber as well.

And just like that Uncle Deadeye is my new favourite wolf.
I predict that the next strip will feature Jata crying and begging for mercy and Deadeye standing there with the entire K-9 squad trying to pull him of Jata, unphased of course.

I'm pretty sure cats can't land on their feet when their spine is folded the wrong way. :twisted:
Yep, we now need a side arc, or maybe a short story ala All the King's Men (hint hint Rick :) ) detailing Deadeye's past.

Never underestimate the elders, they can be stronger than you think and can be dangerous sometimes.

They'll just elect a new prince/leader.

Uncle Deadeye: the best Hand to Hand combat specialist.

I was about to say, "Anyone else reminded of Kung Fu Panda?" but then I saw your post :)
Whenever Uncle Deadeye smiles, awesomeness is about to happen!

With age comes wisdom, and wisdom is a far more deadly weapon than brute strength. That, and well, Deadeye looks pretty dang strong too :D

Uncle Deadeye never liked Jata from the first time he met him. Uncle deadeye seems to have proven he was and excellent judge of character when it came to Jata.

Oh, I doubt he KILLED him.

However, humiliating him on worldwide TV, damaging his political standing at home and, possibly, removing or impairing his chances of furthering his family line may mean Jata would prefer it if he HAD.

If Jata is dead, or otherwise no longer the prince of Feraga, the closest of royal blood would likely succeed him.
Dissension wrote:Guys, I was kidding. Kidding is a thing.
I thought so. Death is a possibility, and has been approached in comics before, but this does not seem like a place/way for that.

Hasn't anyone thought that maybe our favourite leopard jerk just made a super incredible martial combat move by bending himself in an impossible way and the exclamation of surprise comes at this unfantomably mighty technique?
