this is hear because Sarah needs it just change every thing to were wolf

as for her sneezing its because of the Mane
The mane of the adult male lion, unique among cats, is one of the most distinctive characteristics of the species. It makes the lion appear larger, providing an excellent intimidation display; this aids the lion during confrontations with other lions and with the species' chief competitor in Africa, the spotted hyena.[43] The presence, absence, color, and size of the mane is associated with genetic precondition, sexual maturity, climate, and testosterone production; the rule of thumb is the darker and fuller the mane, the healthier the lion. Sexual selection of mates by lionesses favors males with the densest, darkest mane.[44] Research in Tanzania also suggests mane length signals fighting success in male–male relationships. Darker-maned individuals may have longer reproductive lives and higher offspring survival, although they suffer in the hottest months of the year.[45] In prides including a coalition of two or three males, it is possible that lionesses solicit mating more actively with the males who are more heavily maned.[44]
Scientists once believed that the distinct status of some subspecies could be justified by morphology, including the size of the mane. Morphology was used to identify subspecies such as the Barbary Lion and Cape Lion. Research has suggested, however, that environmental factors influence the color and size of a lion's mane, such as the ambient temperature.[45] The cooler ambient temperature in European and North American zoos, for example, may result in a heavier mane. Thus the mane is not an appropriate marker for identifying subspecies.[17][46] The males of the Asiatic subspecies, however, are characterized by sparser manes than average African lions.[47]

I hope that Jean continues to whale on little miss moody with that clue-by-4 for a while.. it is very enjoyable to watch

[Happygun]

Yaaay! A dull bulb brightens!

Dear G'hod, what happened to Sarah on the second panel? Please tell me that's going to be cleaned up in the print version...I know it was supposed to be ugly and mean, but it just looks kind of silly.

The Clue X Four has been a common joke for a while now. And part of YoumaCon's staff equipment ^_^



Yeah, it's more that just about everything Sarah has is in a Turtle theme. Plushies, comforters, etc. Might say something about her personality.

But I just did a double. I really should get some sleep at some point.

And don't forget my work in Dirty, Dirtier, Dirtiest at SBO

[nighthawke]

Kinda glad the wolfsbane held her back, albeit barely tho...

A ClueX4. Yeah, I'm stealing that too.

[redeyes]

I also approve of the tern clue-by-four and will henceforth incorporate it into my vocabulary. As for Sarah, judging by how she just plain wilts in the last panel, I'd say she's starting to realize that she's done goofed more than a little here. Let the healing begin.

It's good to see Sarah is getting clued in. In hindsight after many have pointed out she never knew Butch, she probably had no clue Butch was trying to "claim" Pete all this time. As for her conclusion jumping... I admit thinking about it, it's a very human reaction. Not everyone can be calm enough to look at that situation and go "there's something screwy going on here besides the obvious screwing". Especially given she was in uber-wolf mode she was on a pure Id-trip and on instinct and emotion.

Now that she's calmly thought about it, she's obviously feeling very small. Reconcilation seems on the horizon; however as I said in a prior post I hope to see improvement between Pete and Sarah's chemistry. Maybe this bump will help there.

As for Jean, I know many here are frowny over her attempted seduction; I think perhaps this's a clue-in about what Jean's Mom said to her in their car ride. We all know Jean and Pete have a sexual history (and from Jean's own words an awesome one), and now Pete is committed with Sarah, now by Pack standards if Sarah and he are cool with it, he could still "service her" and it's obviously been awhile. Now so far we haven't seen Jean seeking an alternative "sex source"....which to me intimates Jean may have more feelings for Pete herself than she's willing to admit (not unlike Sarah outside of wolf mode), and the warning her Mom gave her is starting to emerge.

The way she quickly delved into that intense day-dream, and was "hoping" for a ride on the Petey-pole, the "it's been a looong time" horniness aside, it seemed to me Jean has a high regard for Pete as a lover...

Then again only Kris and Bar-1 know what goes on in their minds.

By the by, has the monthly Howl already taken place at this point in the comic or is still upcoming? Not too long ago one of the characters mentioned it, suggesting it was only a couple days away. I'm hoping the next chapter will chronicle Sarah's first Howl.

[bar1scorpio]

Still about to happen. Peter's assault, Sarah's freak-out, Peter & Jean at school, this has all been one 24-hour period.

[Spiritbw]

I think you guys owe Aaron Williams royalties for using the clue by four.

It was a magic weapon/item/dohicky in his Nodwick comic from...well, some time ago. He stopped writing the series back in 2006 and a dozen issues after the clue by four made it's appreance.

...and yes you use it about how you'd think and it does about what you expect.



Foud out, it was published 2005-07-01. The series ended and the issue in quesiton is no longer avaiable for sale so I hope you don't mind me mentioning it.

[bar1scorpio]

The Clue by Four as a phrase has been around a lot longer than that.

[Kris@WLP]

I first encountered the phrase in 1995, myself, shortly after I got online.

[Kaeto]

I first encountered the phrase in the 1960's while in school.

[MitchellTF]

I encountered the phrase about five minutes ago. Admitedly, similar things have been around for a LOOONG time. But I like the Clue-By-Four.

*Stats it up as a magic item for MSFHigh*

And, great comic. Hopefully this will rescue Sarah from the scrappy heap. I've liked her.
