God, I hope they don’t take the ‘shit happens’ route and just have them experience a random robbery or murder. I find it inexcusable when a writer does that… It’s not ‘realism’ as they like to claim, it’s someone out of ideas.
I trust these guys though, they honestly have never let me down. I guess it’s human nature to worry about things regardless of past experiences.
Ah yes, the two row rubix cube, my favorite (kidding) (panel 1)
On a more serious note, I am very, very scared for the next several comics. I never really comment so… keep up the good work?
He felt the feeling again
It might be Lily again, it might be Blacky.
I don’t know, but there are gods in this (comic’s) world, and I feel like revival/resurrection/reincarnation would be a thing.
So, if someone dies, then they could become a raccoon in the next life maybe.
Also
Yuna the Ye Thuza Burmese child soldier child soldier
That might also be what happens
Most likely not
I can excuse it for writers when the entire book is about that event, seeing as it had to have happened to someone. In this situation, however, about a pre-decided pair due to a talking raccoon, that plot arc would be sad (and yet I’d keep reading the strip, so I suppose it’s still excusable for me.)
@ S-Ranker:
There’s a Calvin + Hobbes arc where this happens that Watterson imbues with a lot of emotion, so I’m not entirely opposed to that kind of thing.
Or perhaps he realized that non-domesticated racoons (like his wife and kids) only live 2-3 years and he is now 8 years old (plus or minus comic time translations). Though the oldest racoon in our world is 14 years old, he could be getting sick – especially after centering the happy times around Woo.
At least a couple of years would’ve passed by now though.
@ John Willow:
Or even worse. her Wolframs Decease wish is the cause of her diabetes, Hope Novil won’t kill off Larissa yet. 🙁 But if he does i respect his decision as Sandra And Woo is his creation.
Okay, no one’s died yet.
They’ve had a great day. Let’s see if things will get less cheerful now.

“Oh no… I have FLEAS!”
Monster Inc. is coming?

And this is how we find out Sandra lets out massive farts in her sleep.
@ Kat:
Those are actual things btw
Fart joke incoming. . .? (or out going depending on POV/PHRASING.)
Gasp! he woke up! He woke up rudely! Ooooooh Shhhhhivers!
Aaaand this is the point at which Woo realizes…

Woo realizes he’s nocturnal and will no longer be able to sleep at night

Yeah; that was my favorite part of today’s strip. 🙂
@ Twuster:
I was thinking he’d realize his sleeping arrangements are a bit strange, for a raccoon with a family…
@ TachyonCode:
That would make a lot of sense.
WHAT IS IT, MAN?! TELL US!!!
CAN YOU FEEL IT
CAN YOU FEEL IT?
CAN YOU SENSE IT?
HERE IT COMES!
His racoon senses are tingling….
Oh God, and still I prepare myself for a character death.
Woo just realized that an entire day passed without a single joke. The artist is totally gonna fire him.

I think it might have finally sunk in that he is a pet.

He remembers one of his kits got stuck up a tree again…
Sorry, not sorry

Aaaaaargh! Resolve the tension already!

According to several comments, that was the joke for “Coming Out of the Closet”, only a few weeks ago (2016/04/21). Try to keep up. ^_^
I’m getting a weird vibe that it has something to do with Larissa and her diabetes.
Now to go completely in the complete opposite emotional direction when I say that Sandra looks kinda sexy in the first panel

@ athroughzdude:
YET
Thus far, it’s only a Sudden Awakening. Still rather polite at the moment.
@ TachyonCode:
” . . . he could have had a V8!”
@ John Willow:
She’s still like 13 broster toaster. I know it’s a cartoon so there isn’t really any harm to you making such observations but… 13.
@ AmbiguousMouse:
Let’s just say that I read Negima around that age
In the last comic, I tired to find a reason as to why he tagged Calvin and Hobbes. @ LabRat:
Cue the music!
*I’m wide awake*
Lily and the kits are in danger is my guess.
Pull the trigger already!

Why is it that I can’t help but think of this?

@ S-Ranker:
‘Random’? OK, murder would be ‘dark and edgy’, but robberies absolutely happen in real life. To quote an old comic I loved:
“This is the kind of thing that is supposed to happen to someone else. But we’re all someone else to someone else.”
Judge something after its execution, not on premise.
i hope this is just a troll, like that’s the rude awakening, Woo was awakened…..very rudely by someone…..

@ Iron Ed:
That’s not a 2-layer Rubik’s Cube. You can see the bottom layer between his paws.
