Well we all won the booby prize tonight. Breel actually offered them cookies. And they accepted. If someone mentions the demon, I'm out.
Breel is either a strategic mastermind or a simpleton. Time will tell.
That is a purple in their house. It nothing to do with anything but I wanted to point that out.

Breel does what Keene wanted and helps out, though I imagine he thought he would do that in a different way. Breel must not yet be fully used to having a body if he’s visibly shanking in panel 4. Lois, if you’re going to strangle someone you gotta put your back into it! Er, I mean…
The cape comes with the promotion.

I dont think Breel is either, but I think hes stuck in Heaven mode, where no one can get hurt.
I love Lois here, with that slightly angry but neutral expression, and it feels like Keene is bothered it was so easy to get the bobcat to stop.

There’s nothing in life like a cookie
to bring you back from the ledge
and, as it’s Breel that made them,
they’re not gonna taste like veg.
The question’s been asked, not answered
but at least Keene can now breathe;
Now he can give them his story
but is it one they can believe?
How fast is young Lana coming
and who does she have coming with?
The tale that Keene’s about to tell;
is it one that she can forgive?

I like to think that Breel knows the severity of the situation, but took some classes in Heaven about peaceful conflict resolution and decided the best way to stop the fighting was by offering delicious cookies.
The wobbly lines are there to convey the motion of him holding out the tray toward Marion & Lois.Champion Wallace wrote:Breel must not yet be fully used to having a body if he’s visibly shanking in panel 4.
With the right community, getting into a webcomic at the beginning of a brand new arc can feel just as enjoyable and rewarding as being there from the beginning.
Re: 2019/11/22 - Thats Good Enough For Me
I do wonder which Keene we get now. The Keene we've seen up to now would be calling the police, or at least his own goon squad. Does he forgive their entrance and have a conversation, or do we see the next scene at the precinct?

Re: 2019/11/22 - Thats Good Enough For Me
Well, at least she didn't eat him,
Though I know she might have wanted to,
Keene only got a trim,
Only a hair of what Lois can do.
Cookies as a flag of peace
Well, I can't quite say I trust that,
But calm down, everyone, at least take out a lease
Breel's a master of distraction, as wily as a cat.
We're reaching near the end of our tale,
That we know to be true,
So the question remains, will the next strip hail

Once a "Heavenly. Host", always a "Heavenly Host", eh, Breel? And they're chocolate chip cookies, no less!

Breel is pretty adorable, and I love the confidence Marion has now that he has Lois. Cookie time!

First a pro tackle, then a choke hold, and now strategically-offered cookies. Such a thrilling week!

Re: 2019/11/22 - Thats Good Enough For Me
I am really surprised at how fast those cookies got baked. When Lois stormed in and tackled Keene it looked like the cookies that he and Breel were making were still just cookie dough. That whole scene couldn't have been more than 2 or 3 minutes. Cookies usually take a bit longer. Unless Breel somehow still has some power that he got when he was an angel in heaven.

I imagine Breel would try to convince Keene not to, but calling the police would be a quick way to get Fox and Fido back into the mix.dr_eirik wrote:I do wonder which Keene we get now.

Re: 2019/11/22 - Thats Good Enough For Me
I think the part that sold me here is that I focused too much on Lois and didn't notice that Marion was reaching for the cookies as well. <3

Re: 2019/11/22 - Thats Good Enough For Me
so are we finally going to get an answer as to why everyone is turning into animals? or is this just going to be more its just happening
Re: 2019/11/22 - Thats Good Enough For Me
Eheh, Breel is always so adorable! It's a weird way to help Keene, but it's effective. How can you say no to sweet home make cookies? Alright, Keene is going to talk, and seems that he can really tell something about why they turned into animals. He knows...

Could be so, but a ferret can't get great chances to run away from bobcat's paws and agility.Welsh Halfwit wrote:...or he just wants a mad Bobcat to stop strangling him?
Keene suddenly recognized Marion on Lois' shoulders, he knows that he has/had an human girlfriend, and so, he really seems to know that they were humans who got turned into animals...
Re: 2019/11/22 - Thats Good Enough For Me
I don't think that he knows that this bobcat was Lois, at least not at that moment. I don't think he knows anything specifically that's been going on since Marion changed.Cesco wrote:Could be so, but a ferret can't get great chances to run away from bobcat's paws and agility.Welsh Halfwit wrote:...or he just wants a mad Bobcat to stop strangling him?

That doesn't mean he doesn't know anything useful. He is possibly the greatest mortal expert on the Temple since he has his fathers research. Has he been looking at any of it? I guess we'll find out soon.

I still think the culprit is the Shadow Kobold Demon, Nreel

Keene should be relieved he's no longer being strangled, but he just looks disappointed in the last panel.

Gotta love the subtle detail in Rick's art. There's hardly any difference in Lois' face between panels 2 and 3, but you can really see her change in expression.

It did occur to me that what we thought was a bird in Presto Chango could be something else, although actually looking at the page is making me think its a big stretch.Valareos wrote:I still think the culprit is the Shadow Kobold Demon, Nreel

The dino-demon can fly, and is pitch black... but other than that, it shares little resemblence to the apparent bird. Unless it can shape-shift (not impossible, considering its other abilities) it probably isn't the bird.

Well it is a demon from the HP! version of hell, so I wouldn't be surprised at any abilities that the demon has that we haven't seen yet because we have only seen him for a few strips before he left the ferret who helped him break into the real world to die in a massive temple collapse.
Re: 2019/11/22 - Thats Good Enough For Me
Given Rick's fondness for "planting a story seed" (like Sabrina's near drowning) so eventually that little devil's gonna pop up again - but maybe not for years.......
Re: 2019/11/22 - Thats Good Enough For Me
I'm not entirely sure on that, but didn't Rick plant that seed with "Two years from now" and then two years later in real time, the payoff happened?NHWestoN wrote:Given Rick's fondness for "planting a story seed" (like Sabrina's near drowning) so eventually that little devil's gonna pop up again - but maybe not for years.......
