Sabotaging the saboteur - well played, Kari. Well played.

I hope that the ferrets have some good healthcare for Falstaff since his tail might be chopped off!

Falstaff’s first off the mark,
Trying to stop Karishad’s work.
Unknowing, unfaltering trust
In the plan composed by a berk.
He takes the place of a cut frame
And stands in front of the Fox;
He tells Truck it’s all good
But may have lost some locks.
Deep in the winter snow
Rock needs to call a paramedic
Or Fals will sue for all his worth…

Actually, we never see the damage caused. And besides, It likely means that Karishad just cropped fur off. Most animal tails, Raccoons being among them, have the tailbone only go half the length of the actual tail.

Also, since Falstaff only noticed when Karishad pointed it out, likely means that the saw wasn't cutting bone. Also, I'm actually rather certain that Truck wouldn't be giving a thumbs up like that if Falstaff's actually been injured. I mean, he's not the brightest bulb in the Chandelier, but he would at least recognize grievous injury and react to it.

You'd think fallstaf would've run after Karishad recognized that he was going to sabateuge him. :P

Wait, can Falstaff even sue? Does he have that right, I mean animals in the woods don't have real rights, right? So then If Karishad did cut it off wouldn't he have to run to Jessica for help? And how would that work, in legalities? Then again Fals is probably fine. :shock:

And the big twist: Falstaff didn't had that look in the last panel, because his tail was cut off (or at least a part of it), he just doesn't know the answer to Kari's question, that's it :mrgreen:

Also this reminds me of that one episode of the pink panther cartoon, where he got his tail cut off all the time :mrgreen:

Oh, no... :? I told you needed some luck to deal with Karishad. :P I guess the second step is now to get the pieces all together... :lol: Now, Falstaff, turn your head to the back slowly and look what did Karishad do... :| I hope he's just kidding! :D Never try to get the trust of a such chaos of a fox, and looks like he understood what you wished to do. ;) Truck's enthusiasm is so funny. :P

PS: there's an error in the third panel. Falstaff's chest and front neck fur is colored instead of being white, and it's also missing the colors division line. ;)

Tail is about the same length compared to the rest of the body in both images.

Well, which cartoons are we talking about? I've seen cartoons with beheadings (Tom and Jerry), Iron Maidens (PowerPuff Girls), and shootings (can't recall the specific Porky Pig cartoon). And those were just the more unique ones.

Anyway, wonder what'll happen to Cory.

Daffy Duck and Wile E Coyote have both been cut in half before. And Mr Coyote has had literally everything ever done to him at least once. Usually explosively.
Most important thing I've learned from D&D?
No matter how tempting it may be, as a DM I can't both present a problem and solve it.
Every time a DMPC or NPC fixes something a payer couldn't i'm diminishing and undermining that player's contribution.

Sorry, but having been a vet student and studied anatomy, I can tell you that's wrong. There's no such thing as a "tailbone" unless you're human. In animals, the vertebrae continue down the tail right to the end. The spinal cord stops just near the pelvis though, just like in any species. The tail vertebrae are called "caudal" or "coccygeal" vertebrae.

That's true. I do agree with that. ^^ Although shock can do strange things.

There's also hangings and shootings and electrocutions in Bugs Bunny. There's a lot you can get away with in cartoons, especially if it's not shown on screen. As long as it's kept non-graphic and comedic then you can get away with a lot.
But anyway, this is Rick's comic so he can do what he wants since he sets the ratings himself. ^^
