And this concludes Chapter 11! We're now going to take a two week hiatus before we start Chapter 12. We need to finish prepping volumes 1 and 2 for print, we have to script the next chapter and we also have Anime Weekend Atlanta to attend. Look for updates to resume on October 4th!

    1. Mekito

      Now that I’ve found my words… I’m glad I was on the mark with my demon theory. Ish. Also is it sad I wouldn’t mind a plushie of this form…?

      1. comic.phile

        no, id buy that plushie

        1. JoelEXT4

        2. Heyoceama

          No way give it those eyes and authentic blood and il buy 20! :D

    1. arthour

      I don’t wanna wait….

  3. Angeliclily

    SWEET….JESUS.

    1. ClimbingEast

      Yep. This comic beautiful.

    2. omenaapple

      My words exactly, mate!

  4. Ramps

    He chose the wrong pup to mess with…

    1. Fang

      Indeed

      1. ravor9933

        Quite

    2. LightWolf

      Agreed

    3. Grizzlyscar

      Indubitably

      1. Generic-username427

        Yes, I concur

  5. Bethie

    Holy mother of art, yes! This is so amazing and beautiful and I can’t even it is just so . . . Wow. That’s all she could say. Wow.

  6. Snowtail the Khajiit

    Wow. Badass demon Meela~! And a hopefully-dead Korin!

    1. thelightedDarkness

      If he survived that……….

      1. comic.phile

        well if he did he probably wont be in any shape to hunt her anymore. not to mention too scared to.

        1. JoelEXT4

          traumatized, you can say

        2. Heyoceama

          Not to mention fact he would need some sort of breathing device to continue living.

        3. DiamondSnake

          He would also need a lot of new blood. He seems to have lost a lot.

    2. Deancota

      He had his arm ripped off, I highly doubt he’d be able to survive that, particularly with the deep facial scratches as well.

  7. A Fangirl

    AAAHHHH!! Well I agree that she should’ve left… I don’t know what Feral would’ve done had that happened around him..

  8. ShadowBoa

    Ok so this brings up questions about her heritage. Her mom was a bounty hunter, right? And her father was one of her targets, but it was never said why. Was he part demon or something?

    1. Puppers

      Just looked back at page showing her parents. This form has her *cough* father’s eyes.
      (´･_･`)

      1. Julia

        Not only that, but I suspect that is also the reason he wears this bandana thingie. My guess is that he probably had a mark on his forehead like Meela has now

        1. Dotcom

          Also he had the tail guard—which we initially thought was for protection. But no other lupian wears one (not even Feral—who is in a dangerous profession). So I wonder if he wore it to hide demon spikes on his tail? That would make a lot of sense—especially considering he wore it and the bandanna at home. Maybe he was hiding what he was from the kids?

          Really curious how this transformation will change Meela’s humanoid character design. Will she look the same or will she have red marks under her eyes and spikes on her tail, too? Will she ever be able to transform into a normal wolf again or is she forever part-demon?

        2. Cecindra

          I think the tail-guard was just that, armor for his tail. If you looks at Meela’s demon wolf form up above she doesn’t have spikes on her tail, just down her back. On pages 249 and 250 you can see her father wears two different tail-guards. One looks like it is a soft fabric, which probably wouldn’t hide tail spikes real well.

        3. Dotcom

          I thought that at first, too, but if you adjust the lighting on your monitor, you will see the spikes on her tail are just lying flatter. Her father wears a cover over his tail in their home that doesn’t appear to be armor. Also, it just covers the top. I am betting he had spikes.

        4. Cecindra

          Yeah, my bad. I see them now. I still feel like the tail-guard that doesn’t look like armor wouldn’t cover his spikes very well. It’s definitely a possibility though. If the spikes lay flat enough on his tail in his human form, I think the cover might hide them. Ohhhh, I just can’t wait for two weeks, too excited! >-<

        5. Saijay

          Oh, wow… would that be the same reason Meela wanted a hat?

        6. Spizzy

          I think it was more because her brother wore a hat, maybe it reminded her of him. If you look back to the page where Meela is trying to trade for Holland’s daggers, you can see in her memory that her brother is wearing a very similar hat

    2. Cinni-mon

      Well did anyone else see that he wears these red jewels everywhere, the same color as meela’s demon markings, I think it had something to do with his demon heritage. Maybe they had some magical properties that helped him control it. Also I don’t remember but didnt he have red markings under his eyes as well?

      1. Dotcom

        Interesting theory. I’m wondering more about him, too. Thought his character was wearing those things for aesthetics, but now we see Meela’s demon-wolf form it makes a lot more sense why her father looked the way he did.

  9. GrimGraffiti

    Daaaaaaaawww shiiiiiit!
    Daw dis be gettin good!

  10. Leo the Yardie Chick

    O_O Well DAMB!

  11. Sagechano

    Run Holland. Just run.

  12. Dehaha1

    OH MY GO… actually hang on a second. *Calls someone on phone*
    *Celesse and Algy answer phone*
    “I freaking called it!!!”
    *Hangs up*

  13. thelightedDarkness

    Don’t run. Back away slowly and quietly and hope she doesn’t maul your face off……

    Meela scares me now….

    1. DiamondSnake

      Flying would also be quite an effective way out, assuming she can’t jump like a grasshopper or grow wings on command. And seeing how much she’s already changed, none seem too impossible.

      1. thelightedDarkness

        Mayhaps her demon powers give her the ability to super jump….

        And maybe…she can fly! O: Using dat demon energy tho

    2. TheBookwormBakery

      Also, don’t blink.

      1. KaelinaLuvsLomaris

        Blink and you’re dead.

        1. Bethany

          She is fast, faster than you can believe.

        2. Tickling Tears

          Don’t turn your back, don’t look away, and don’t blink!

        3. Snowtail the Khajiit

          Good luck. :3

      2. The one Who is ME

        Doctor Who reference! I love you!

    3. Sofy

      If she can transform into this when ever she gets angy, she’s going on the cusp of womanhood, that’s even scarier….

  14. Enko

    UGHHHHHHHH
    The wait times are making me rage so hard… but I wanna know what happens so much more than the rage!

  15. Rangeh

    HOLY. Wow. I just.
    I can’t even..
    Meela <3

  16. Clamps

    As much as I hated Korin as the next person, I feel a bit… sad that Meela took his life (as it appears). I think we all knew it was inevitable (and freaking great) that Korin would meet his end at the hands or fangs of a past victim, however the brutality that Meela showed is both awesome and terrifying. I wonder how she’s going to feel when her conscious returns and sees the extent of what her “demon-state” can do. Would it be terror, remorse, sorrow? Maybe this was why she had to leave the group; she didn’t want to risk hurting anyone by accidentally lashing out or attracting trouble.

    1. DiamondSnake

      Yeah, I feel slightly sorry for Korin. No one deserves that kind of death. Maybe he was also still alive when his arm was ripped off… ._. No one deserves that.

      1. Cinni-mon

        Ya, agreed. Plus I wanted a feral and Korin reunion before he died, that way it would maybe jog his memory.

    2. Dotcom

      Naw, I’m actually okay with this outcome for him. He was a nasty evil sleazy murderer who completely brought this fate upon himself. What better way than to die a grisly death at the jaws of a (previously) child he bullied before planning to kill. Rest in pieces, Korin.

  17. Sofy

    Snap that’s lookin’ awesome. Dude…

    1. Sofy

      does it make me sick that I’m looking at this while listening to cheerfully listening to Christmas music….?

      1. Skaja

        No. I think.

      2. Snowtail the Khajiit

        Sounds about right.

        1. Sofy

          Ok good. xD

  18. LoLo

    Omg, Meela is really scary in this page O_o Oh, and Holland, you being a bird, you might wanna be careful not to become the main dish haha.

  19. Jade

    haha Meela’s horny
    Immaturity aside, this is a great page! Wonder what Holland and Feral are gonna do about this… A part of me thinks that Feral’s going to want to kill her.

    1. b0bcat16

      Well it’s his job right?
      I mean he is a bounty hunter after all!
      Loving page guys ;)

  20. Afan

    I wonder if Holland thinks that Meela killed a random person and not someone who was attacking her. if so this could be very bad.

  21. JoelEXT4

    …the mark looks cool, but…. yikes… no words to say… P.S: the wolf looks awesome

  22. grizzly

    YES! DEMONIC FORM!

    Yes,just yes.

  23. Pen

    oh man meela…this page is even worse if you go back and read the early chapters where she’s just a happy-go-lucky failboat puppy.

    i’m really worried about why holland is so worried about feral finding out about this :c

    anyway, LOVING THIS SO MUCH, more than happy to wait for the next update.

    1. grizzly

      If feral finds out he’ll most likely kill meela

      1. The 9. Street of Em's

        HE WOULDN’T DARE >:C

        1. Kukki

          If he doesn’t realize it’s her? She’s changed a bit, if you haven’t noticed.

        2. not me

          she probably still smells like meela.

  24. Lillkit

    Wow, this is kinda ironc if you think back to the beginning to where feral and Meela first met.
    “Are you a demon luptin?!”
    *fereal shakes head*
    “Ok that’s fine, becaus I AM!”

    1. Snowtail the Khajiit

      *Realization* o.o
      0.0
      :O

  25. KaelinaLuvsLomaris

    Meela kind of looks like a hyena with the ridges of spiky fur on her back! Oh, please don’t hurt Holland, Meela!

  26. Wabbajack

    Oh…
    My…
    God…

  27. Genell

    O_O !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    (is all i can really say)

  28. azreal317

    is that really meela????

    1. Satinka

      Meela does not have this scars on her snout. And the black Markings on her back are also not the same like Meelas. I think it is not her O_o

      1. LicianDragon

        The scars might be wounds from her battle with Korin and the black markings are probably from her going part-demon.

        1. Beau

          Yeah, the ‘scars’ are open wounds, you can see them up close on the last page. And the black is probably demon markings. But it kinda looks like the red that used to be on her back and paws just got really dark and spread, it could just be to dark to see which color it actulaly is.

        2. Beau

          Yeah, the ‘scars’ are open wounds, you can see them up close on the last page. And the black is probably demon markings. But it kinda looks like the red that used to be on her back and paws just got really dark and spread, it could just be to dark to see which color it actually is.

  29. MangakaPoof

    Guys…guys…what if Holland doesn’t want Feral to find Meela because maybe it was a demon lupian that attacked him when he was young and caused Feral to lose his voice..

    1. thelightedDarkness

      O-O

    2. Sin

      Mangaka, that makes way to much sense

    3. Luna

      Maybe it was Meela’s father that gave Mal and Yuen/Feral their demon marks? It would kinda explain why she and Feral are linked.

      1. Saijay

        Interesting. Definitely a possibility…

    4. Dotcom

      I think that’s likely.

    5. Cinni-mon

      I think feral lost his voice cause mal went a little crazy and then feral had to battle (and possibly kill) him to get him to stop what ever destruction he was causing, also losing his voice in the process. But that’s just my theory.

      1. not me

        …your theory is plausible.

    6. Maggz

      OH MY GOODNESS YES!!!

  30. Rythos

    … I see the spikes all down her tail… and then I look back. Odd, wasn’t it, that her father always had that “tail armor” on… how much armor was it, actually, and how much of it was hiding his own spikes..?

    1. Mirza

      You may be true. As we can see in flashbacks, her father ALWAYS had a tail armor. Moreover, he had markings under his eyes too. Maybe this wild form is permament, and occurs also on human form? If her father had same symbols on his forehead, as Meela has, it would explain why he was wearing this bandage-thing-whatever on head. And maybe red crystals were able to control his powers.

    2. Cecindra

      I think she only has two spikes on her tail. If you look at page 250 her father is wearing a tail-guard that looks to be made of some soft fabric. I don’t think that would hide those spikes very well.

    3. Dotcom

      I thought the same thing—especially going back through the archives. Even at home he keeps his tail covered.

      Cecindra – Meela has way more than two spikes on her tail. Play with your monitor brightness, and you’ll see it. I didn’t even see them on my phone (or that Korin’s arm was severed) until I read some comments and came back here on my laptop.

  31. Thornbit

    MAN OH MAN! HOLLAND YOU BETTER RUN!!

  32. Heyoceama

    Hollands fucked and Feral will have his hands full.

  33. Heyoceama

    Judging by the looks of Im just gonna assume Korin no longer has a face. 0_0

    1. DarthJazzHand

      Meh. Not like didn’t deserve that.

      1. Heyoceama

        Never said he didn’t deserve it I’m just saying that’s a tad drastic.

    2. idontcare

      if he survives, he might be the new slenderman!

      1. DarthJazzHand

        Not with his shitty sense of fashion he won’t. Slenderman must be stylish.

        1. Snowtail the Khajiit

          #Slendermanfashonista

  34. Humming-fly

    Oh thank goodness, I was afraid I’d have to wait 2 weeks to see the final form. By the way, she looks freaking AWESOME, can’t wait for the next chapter! >:D

    1. b0bcat16

      Yeah she look scary
      Funny thing is yesterday it was freaky friday and now this page comes up.. LMAO

  35. Bree

    SCREAMING SHE LOOKS SO COOL OMG

    SO MANY UNEXPLAINED

    THE BEST CLIFFHANGER IM GOING TO DIIIEEE

    1. No

      ;A; bdfvhjfggfhjsdfsdfhsdhfbjk
      TOTAL DESCRIPTION OF THE FEELS

  36. DiamondSnake

    FLY, huge swan birdy man, FLY for your LIFE!
    … It was quite dumb to purposefully catch her attention like that. Holland, you mad.
    Wait a mmminute. Her father had those marks under his eyes and only now does Meela have them. Could her father have possibly been a demon, too?
    Also, I have the need to point out that she looks like a dragon-wolf with the spiky back. And her ears grew. So. Cute.

    1. DiamondSnake

      Okay, after reading more comments, I see how likely it is that her father WAS a demon lupian.

  37. Seggi

    As horrific a death it was, you have to admit, the guy did deserve it. Past deeds aside, he egged her on and said just the right things to make her go all savage like this. Its pretty much his own fault, and he reaps what he sows.

    I just hope she is able to come back to her senses before turning on Holland. If not, hopefully Feral managed to catch up.

  38. .:MoonStorm:.

    Meela…. oh no…
    Her eyes are… are… magnetic o.o
    Holland… please… Don’t do strange thing >.<

    Well done, It's a fantastic comic *^*

  39. Tehstalki

    Omg my birthday is October fourth yay.

  40. EnclosedOne

    I’d totally buy this as a poster for my wall. Also, I was expecting Korin to be a bit more chewed up on more then just his face/neck but I love all the blood nonetheless. Seems to me that most artists are afraid to draw blood at all and that’s a shame cause I find death scenes eerily captivating…I must be weird lol >__<

  41. Mistybooklover

    I now wonder what Feral would do in Hollands place?
    I love the demon-lupian form! Bad Ass! What will Holland do now? Where will Feral be? What will happen if Feral finds out about her?!
    Will Meela attack Holland? Will Feral have to kill her?

    1. TheBookwormBakery

      All these questions and more will be answered, when Strays returns!

      STAY TUNED!

  42. lostone2085

    The reason he is only a little chewed up is because he got some hits in if you look at meelas face you will see some cuts that and the mark on her forehead look kind of like the mark on ferals hand

  43. Satinka

    Is this really Meela? But as far a I know she didnt have these Scars on her Nose O_o

    1. some random gamer

      well, we know that guy on the floors not meela… so ya, ya it is

    2. OttosVictoria

      Yes, that’s Meela. I would assume that the cuts on her snout were from Korin. I’m sure he got a few hits in before Meela could stop him…..

  44. lostone2085

    From the look i think that korin is still alive for two reason one not enough blood only damage seen is on face and one arm but that is a slash mark on face cause im preety sure that people that can turn into wolfs would know the first rule when getting attacked by a dog you give up a arm. That and we have not seen ferals reaction to his perants murderer l.

    1. Beau

      I think he’s dead, I believe, well it looks like, Meela tore his throat out. Went right for the jugular.

    2. idontcare

      I surely bet he would be dead. That IS a lot of blood, and he even lost an arm. If he’s still alive, his heart wont beat forever

  45. 1cherrypup

    That form just looks awesome! I agree through Korin might have bad and all but he was still a person… or wolf-person more rather

  46. lillianblaze

    O.O meep.

  47. some random gamer

    holy fuuuuuuuuuuu- she has horns! 0.0

  48. mariaa

    Epic, I’m so excited :D, her new look is awesome and terrifying OwO

  49. Beau

    So wonderfully evil >:DDDD

  50. Alice

    OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS EPIC!!! \o/

  51. Skaja

    Oh shit.

  52. Mandyrez

    Love the page!

    However, as I glanced over to the Meela icon/button of taptastic, I just went:

    Ã’ m Ó I don’t trust you right now puddin’!

    1. Mandyrez

      Wait, phone why did you write taptastic? What the heck is a taptastic? I meant tapastic!

  53. Devil Wolf

    Damn Meela looks badass only if she had wings though that would’ve been epic love this comic and the art work

  54. Maia

    You know how some people are so stunned they cant talk, well I just was so stunned I couldn’t stop talking. So many curses…
    I just found this comic and these two weeks are gonna be painful but well worth it!

  55. Ayame Chiyoko

    OMG!!! she looks so scary!!!! :C

  56. Dotcom

    Glad I fired this up on my laptop as my phone did not show the details (it was too dark to show Korrin’s arm was severed in the other screen).

    Been thinking. While it was definitely Korrin who killed Tanner, I have a feeling it was Mal who took out Meela’s other brother and father. Definitely she got her demon side from her dad. I thought the red markings under his eyes were tattoos at first, but now it’s obvious he had them because he was a demon. Wondering if hers will show when she turns back into her humanish form.

  57. Dotcom

    Anyone notice how huge Meela’s demon wolf form is? Makes me wonder how big she’ll be when she’s an adult.

  58. LicianDragon

    Can we have a version of this without the word bubble and “grrrr” effect as a wallpaper PLEEEEEEAAAAAAAAASE?

    1. not me

      I second that!

  59. Twister

    Now this is awesome. Like the first few comments said, I want a plushie of this form.

  60. A

    I don’t know if anyone else has thought of this, but could Feral be the result of some sort of fusion of Yuen and Mal? The multicolored eyes could indicate multiple personalities, and the way he attacked Meela at the inn might show what Mel would do in that situation. Also, only Mal has been confirmed to have the mark on his hand that Feral uses to demon-drain Visrial’s energy on the palace roof. And furthermore, on page 152 young Feral has bandages on his eye and hands, the places where Yuen and Mal differed the most. What do you guys think?

    1. TheBookwormBakery

      WHOA.

      MIND. BLOWN.

    2. Maddie

      I’ve been thinking that for awhile now! Just when I think he’s Mal or Yuen only then there’s something that makes me think he’s the other…I think he started out as Yuen and then something happened with Mal’s hand mark or whatever and then they ended up fused somehow.

    3. Dotcom

      I don’t think he is. He looks way too much like Yuen, and I really believe Mal killed Meela’s father and Tanner’s twin. It’s a cool theory though and nothing would surprise me at this point. :)

      1. not me

        maybe…

    4. Cinni-mon

      I think yuen is feral, only feral had to go get the marking/powers because it was the only way to stop mal, who probably went crazy with power and started killing peeps, maybe even feral’s gf

      1. Cinni-mon

        Also mal is spanish for bad. Foreshadowing, yes, no, maybe?

  61. WhiteWolfWoman

    NAAAAAA Scaryscaryscary Meela! No Don’t wanna wait… But I have to. EVIL CLIFFIE!!!

  62. Dragon

    Oh crap! Shit just got real! Meela, if you kill Holland, I will be forced to call the Fringe people. They will TAKE YOU DOWN. No, but seriously, please don’t kill off any of the main characters. I would die if Feral got chopped into tiny meat bits.

  63. CrimsonMoonPriestess

    This sent chills down my spine *shivers*

  64. Kasi

    So THATS why she wanted that hat so badly! To hide the horns she knew shed get!

    1. idontcare

      Or maybe she got the hat because it looked like the hat his brother wore.

      1. Glowies

        Or maybe that’s why Tannor wore the hat in the first place? Did he and Meela both inherit demonness from their dad?

        …Ok I doubt that’s why he wore the hat. But still.

  65. Wolf Tears

    Not to nitpick or anything, but… His arms are completely different from the previous picture. I can’t tell which arm is which in the previous picture because they’re facing the opposite direction as the body, so this is confusing, but… Either way, the non-severed arm should have the knife lying next to it and the palm facing upward. O.o’

    1. Celesse

      Actually I made sure it was all correct. His right arm is the severed one, and was the one holding the blade. It’s laying in a different position than the rest of his body, and is positioned between where Meela is and where Holland is standing (you can’t see it in this page).

  66. Cecindra

    I don’t think Korin is dead. I think he is maybe close to death, but I feel like he is still alive. If you look at his hand it is flexed and his first finger and thumb are lifted off the ground. If he was really dead his hand wouldn’t be flexed. Also, I don’t think rigor mortis would have set in yet and cause his hand to freeze in that position. He would have gone slack when he died. Plus, if that is his left arm, then his right leg is also slightly lifted off the ground at the knee.

    Concerning the marks under her eyes, I think they are like her father’s, but they are slightly different. Her markings just curve under her eyes, but her father’s markings curved under his eyes and had a peak that went down his cheeks.

    1. Mekito

      It’s not impossible for severed limbs to be flexed the same as when they were severed. The brain can’t tell the limb to unflex and all, plus there’s the whole rigor mortis thing.

      1. Cecindra

        Oh I know that happens for severed limbs, but the hand I am talking about is not the severed one. On this page the arm you can see is still attached, which is his left arm. On the previous page you can see the arm that has been ripped off, which is his right arm.

        1. Mekito

          Hmmm you’re right… suspension IS odd, even with death… it would have to be some stiff boning to keep something suspended after death (like a spine or a shoulder joint that just doesn’t move that way), not knuckles… and hard to draw that accidentally…. Oh geez I actually hope he’s dead, that’s painful…

  67. Yozz

    I understand how we all have missed this, but Meela is metal!

  68. Satoshi

    Okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay…
    That’s not good.
    meela is scary and I am left with a cliffhanger.

  69. Swiftsnowpack

    This is what i stay tuned in to this. It makes my day. Meela grew up so fast!!!!!! :’D

  70. dragonsnap14

    well. . . . i thought something was off about her but i’m as surprised as the dead guy on this one

  71. KaelinaLuvsLomaris

    It is SO hard to picture this as Meela. I see the demon-wolf, I know it’s Meela, but I CANNOT put that name to that beast.
    Needless to say, the artwork is AMAZING!

  72. jkelsey6829

    Looks a bit like Wolf-Link from Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Minus the spikes.

    1. Cinni-mon

      Haha, lol, yes a bit

  73. Caprica

    …ermahgerd.. I knew it!
    Holland better get outta there…

  74. Trey

    Could someone post a link to the page with Meela’s parents? I want to take a closer look :)

    This page is amazing, cant wait for the two week Haitus to be done and see what will happen next!

  75. Hatter

    oh nohnoohnoohnoohnoohnoohno!!!!

  76. laurenfell

    Oh no meela. S*** is getting serious as demon meela is on the rampage

  77. Loopy Lass

    I never thought I’d say this about Meela but… she looks so terrifying (and awesome at the same time)

  78. Dotcom

    Everytime I look I see something different. Wow, those face cuts are going to leave scars on Meela. I have a feeling her character is never going to look the same again—even when she transforms back into a girl. I bet she’ll be keeping the red eye marks (like her dad) and maybe the spikes, too. It also wouldn’t surprise me if she looks older from here on, too—especially if she remembers this. I believe our cute little girl will no longer be a child. :(

  79. Luna

    MWAHAHAHAHA!!!! DIE KORIN!!! oaky, can someone PLEASE get Feral now?!?! everyone KNOWS that dogs aren’t allowed in the dog park. do not approach the fence it is electrified. do not seek out the hooded figures. the dog park will not harm you (nigh vale listeners, anyone?)

    1. Feral Dog

      WELCOME, TO NIGHT VALE.

  80. Draco-Digi

    Well this is a pretty interesting change in Meela’s nature haha She’s gonna have some super badass scars on her face when she reverts back to her normal form (I assume she will eventually if not right away)

    1. Draco-Digi

      Ooh actually I just realised, Meela has those red demon markings under her eyes now, just like her Dad. BUT she has similar markings under her eyes in her normal wolf form https://www.straysonline.com/2012/06/page-226/ Foreshadowing maybe? Or just a cool coincidence.

  81. Vivien

    I think there might be more to her than just being a demon lupian. If Korin used to hunt other demon lupians why would he be so surprised about her tranforming? Especially since she’s a lot younger than her father and probably younger than her brother was when he died, wouldn’t there demon forms be stronger than hers if it goes by age, experience, or strength?

    1. not me

      All valid questions… I hope they are answered!
      to be continued…

    2. lostone2085

      Remember deer man was extra worried about her

  82. Salt

    O my God, she is awful.

  83. blue

    NOW we’re talking, some edge!

    Flap, Holland. Flap away…

  84. Julia Balcom

    OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

  85. THE COLONEL

    To quote the Mad Ukrainian at the end of “Gumball Rally”[ as he sails of the end of the dock, and crashes into the hull of the Queen Mary] …………… “OH SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!”

  86. THE COLONEL

    EDIT.. Lapchik was the Mad Hungarian, not Ukrainian in the movie

  87. Miin

    well she did say shut up and he did not listen…

    1. not me

      …evil guys tend not to listen when they think the ball is in their court.

  88. Tigerfur

    Sooo…. prettyful… I love how the color of her pelt got darker :3

    1. Tigerfur

      GUYS I just thought of a theory. What if the boy that she dreams about is actually her dad, and not Feral, and she’s dreaming about how demon even got into her family lines.

      1. Tabrian

        that’s a cool idea

      2. Heyoceama

        Last I checked her dad had white hair.

  89. hedgehog1010

    I first of all love the horns on her from! Epic! I’m glad she killed Koren, assuming she did, but I love his character so much! I’ll be sad to see him go!

  90. Theresa

    Lyk ermager.

    Ah luv eet.
    So yes. This. I will wait. Which, knowing these two lovely ladies, the first page we get will be like Meela and Holland staring at each other and Holland asking what happened…and then we’d have to wait another week to find anything out.

    All my feels. You have been taking them for over a year. I:

  91. Alex

    coolest fucking demon wolf EVER!

  92. Alex

    Tigerfur that is a cool theory

    1. Tigerfur

      Thanks :3

  93. Tabrian

    HOLY COW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Meela is one bad ass wolf demon! WOW!!!!

  94. FlyingGekko

    Awww, only 13 and she already has her own scars! Your daddy would be so proud… *tear*

    Goodness, she looks so awesome! Meela, you just stepped up the ladder of “Bounty to skip for sake of own life”.

  95. Brian

    wow….I’M IN LOVE WITH HER DEMON SIDE!

  96. Nul

    Red glowing lines on its face, along with glowing yellow eyes and two sharp horns… A line of spikes along its spine leading to its adorable fluffy tail.

  97. Pikahopp

    Nice Meela… Niiiiice Meela. You’re adorable, just don’t bite o.O

  98. Hornet

    I don’t think that’s Meela.

  99. Dendva

    If you compare whit the first page,here she is just scary.

  100. Jae

    Looks like Someone’s got the same eyehooks as their father~

  101. Timely thief

    in the words of nine-toes from borderlands “he woke the wrong dog!”

  102. Koiscorpioberg

    I just read your author’s comment below the new page…. You guys are going into PRINT!?!?!? Ooh, when will the books be published… and PLEASE tell me your books are going to be on the selves of Books A Million!

  103. grizzly

    Where’s Fffeeeeeerrrrrrraaaaaallllllllllll?????

  104. kittengrl39

    DEMON WOOOOOOOLF!!!
    (I’m sorry, I had to.)

  105. Rain64

    Please tell me this page will be one of your wallpapers!

  106. Nul

    Fluffy taaaaiiiiillll….. I will call you fluffy because of your fluffy tail.

  107. David

    Obviously Meela and Korin are in love and this is part of the mating ritual. If he survives this, he proves he is fit enough to be father of her children. Of course then we get into all the other men becoming jealous.

  108. David

    https://www.straysonline.com/2012/11/page-248/

    See, this is how love works in Meela’s family. Korin proposed marriage and Meela is just testing him to decide whether to accept.

    1. not me

      >_< ROFL!

  109. Rurado

    I don’t want to sound ridiculous but… I’m kinda holding out hope that it isn’t meela there…! I mean, my precious baby! Her face!! She might get scars! SHE’S TOO PRECIOUS TO BE ROBBED OF HER INNOCENCE!! MY POOR LITTLE BBYFACE! QAQ

    UGH, now I have all these feELS AND WHAT HOW DO I DEAL WITH THEM FOR TWO WHOLE WEEKS???

    Great page though! The colors, the mood, the giaNT DEMON WOLF. All great. Marvelous! Stupendous!!

  110. Dbomb17

    DAMN that nigga dead!

  111. SillyCat

    Very good detail and you didn’t overdo it on the gore like a few other webcomics I follow. I love how you made her look, the horns are a nice touch.

  112. Shepherd Gunn

    Good… good… *hands “demon Meela” her Dark Side cookie* (Actually, what if that isn’t Meela, but actually her Dad? Didn’t he always have his head wrapped up?)

    1. Bluerosebud

      He did, but this coloration matches Meela’s wolf form much more. Probably what it indicates is that Meela will have little horns on the side of her head.

      1. WolfNightV4X1

        Yeah, P sure that’s Meela

  113. WolfNightV4X1

    Can someone say plot twist?

    Yes. Yes I think so.

  114. Jacklin Wolfgang

    I love this webcomic <3…*swoon*

  115. Cinni-mon

    need… more… strays…

    *curls in fetal position till new strays comes out*

  116. asdfghjkl

    “Not a demon” my ass!

    1. Maggz

      There needs to be a “like” button

  117. Genell

    I know! while we’re waiting lets do a sing-a-long!

    Someone pick a song :D

    1. Cinni-mon

      How about monster by skillet, seems fitting

      1. Glowies

        The secret side of me
        I never let you see
        I keep it caged
        But I can’t control it…

        1. Cinni-mon

          So stay away from me
          The beast is ugly
          I feel the rage
          And I just can’t hold it

        2. HaloOkami

          It’s scratchin’ up the walls( in the closet in the halls)

        3. Go Meela

          It comes awake and I can’t control it
          Hiding under the bed,
          In my body, in my head
          Why won’t somebody come and
          Save me from this thing within

  118. Heyoceama

    Hey Celesse can you tell me what magic in this world is as a substance? Is it something in the air or in people or all living things or what? What it is physically kind of governs how it affects life (I.E. If its in people it will affect their health or if its in all living things or the air then it will not affect them directly but rather the area around them).

  119. Mute

    WELL. Looks like we know why she wanted that hat so badly. I’ll wager her dad placed a similar value on his own head-covering.

  120. SnowBunnyLava

    Woah…I hope he gets outta there quick! >.<

  121. grizzly

    Let’s sing Radioactive by Imagine Dragons!

  122. ajbluesox

    SHOOT.. Things just got crazzzyyy

  123. The coolness

    Hi

  124. ZeroRaptor

    Meela! You… you…

    You got a little dribble on your chin there, girl.

  125. Kabel

    Ahh look at the poofy taail

  126. Two Ways

    Nice

  127. Heyoceama

    Atleast Korins still got his hair! XD

  128. Bookworm

    OMG THAT’S FREAKISHLY AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
    She’s looks so scary it’s amazing!!!
    (You’re an awesome artist, Celesse!!)

  129. LittleMissSnipe

    Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude!!!! O.O

    She looks AWESOME!!! 8D I wish I could zoom in just a little to see better!

  130. Zephyruntamed

    So what if Mal is Meela’s dad? Yuen and Mal got separated and Yuen became Feral and Holland helped him block traumatic memories. oh and Feral thought Mal was dead, they hunted him because he’d become half demon…theory anyways…Also, the marks under her eyes are exactly her dad’s. oh and she wanted the hat because Tannor had one like it…

    1. Evangeline Grey

      While I find that to be a very exciting prospect, and I thought maybe it could have been possible, unfortunately after looking back and comparing Mal with Meela’s father…well, for one thing, Mal’s hair is too dark and is a different style. For another Mal got that mark on his hand, which I imagine would have at least left a scar, but Meela’s dad’s hand was mark-free. And I haven’t actually done the math/checked for references recently, but I don’t think Feral is as old as he would have to be for Mal to have been Meela’s father. :(

  131. Nokota

    Okay, it’s Friday, where’s the new comic already!?

    1. Seren

      Read the description, it says that they’re going on a hiatus to prep the volumes for the shop, and to get ready for Chapter 12.

      So they’ll return on October 4th

    2. idontcare

      And even if they were going to update on friday, it’s still early.

  132. Skitterydoo

    Oh my worrrrrrrrrrd… Meela, no, DON’T DO THIS!!!!! Man… can’t wait for the next page!! XD

    1. Maddie

      Loving your Paranatural icon :D

  133. lostone2085

    Any one else notice that the spike on her back have little holes in them kind of makeing them look like a holowed out triangle

  134. Fwanny

    Dude look at how huge her ears are! I’m not saying that they are not proportional, because they are since she is obviously bigger than she was. I just love how big they are!

  135. jeanna

    is it weird or creepy tht i think shes actually quite beautiful??

    1. kotarak12

      nope, not at all ^.^ i find her rlly beautiful :P

  136. Marceline

    O_O HURRY I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

  137. Graviator

    Damn she messed him up!Im so excited though!!SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!(>^0^)>

  138. Cinni-mon

    I always see people with the mal=rollan (meela’s dad) theory, sorry to break it to you but, while interesting, its not gonna happen because mal looks nothing like rollan and the time line is off for that to happen.
    What I want to know is has anyone considered that possibly it was meela’s dad who was the stranger who gave mal and yuen their powers, just maybe, hmmm :/

    1. Woodstock

      I’m with you, Mal can’t be Rollin. Because then that would pretty much be saying that Meela’s dad is around the same age as feral, which doesn’t look true.

      Thats true Rollin was the guy who yeun and mal were talking about. I think that has possibilities!! Thats such a good point! Never thought about that :D

  139. MountainWolf

    DUDE I NEED THE NEXT PAGE NOW. OR THE NEXT FIVE. WHATEVER WORKS FOR YOU.

  140. evisceratedArchangel

    FIGHT IT MEELA BABY *loud sobbing*

  141. grizzly

    IIIIIII’MMMMMMMM SSSSSSOOOOOOO BBBBBBBBOOOOOORRRRRREEEEEEEDDDDDDD

  142. Pookarah

    so, main thought looking at this page: “Baaabbyyyy I’m so sorry” ;.;
    because, poor Meela…..

  143. Zuke117

    Mel, its nice and all you turned into a demon but…

    I swear

    If you touch Holla I will have to jump into the comic and kick your ass.

    With love.~<3

  144. Griffin

    I… okay. I kind of saw this coming months ago.

    I really like this comic, but at this point it’s kind of jumped the shark for me. :c Sorry.

    1. ClimbingEast

      I really like this comic too, but I don’t share your opinion!

      It’s been alluded to that some form of doom has had some sort of association with Meela for as long as the comic has been running; we’re only now seeing it for the first time (and it is awesome) and if any of the other two-hundred and eighty-something pages are anything to go by, I’d say that we only have more good storytelling coming our way.

      And don’t forget about the pears:
      https://www.straysonline.com/2011/06/page-175/

      I’ve got a strong feeling that their masterfully planned schemes will soon be coming to fruition.

      1. Sofy

        ClimbingEast told it right! That’s good thinking and the story is really now starting to burst at the seams, in a good way of course.

  145. JB.

    I love the claw marks across the guy’s face. Clearly an attack that would have at least left him permanently scared and disfigured. Just what he deserved. Meela looks so awesome BTW

  146. Alley16wolf

    Whoa

  147. CrazyCake

    Holy SHIT. Just. Holy shit.

  148. Floor_100

    This comic is just so fantastic! I’m glad my guess on Meela being part demon was correct. I can’t wait for more!

  149. Heyoceama

    3 more days……can’t endure this much longer!!!!!!

    1. not me

      :: holds your hand & waits patiently ::

      1. Sofy

        ^ditto

  150. lupowolfpup

    holy mother ol llamas did not see that coming…O.O
    erhhhhhhhh ma gowd that is so awesome though :3

  151. NexusWolf

    One more day~ I can’t wait! x3

  152. GrimGraffiti

    Soon….

    1. Sofy

      like 12 or 13 hours soon.

  153. Torce

    I realized tomorrow is Friday, and started getting excited.. then it dawned on me that we will just be getting a chapter cover >.< SO! ONE MORE WEEK! I can do it, I can wait another week.

    I LOVE THIS STORY! I love the art more though =^_^=

    1. JiffyOwl

      NNnnNOOO
      I was so excited too
      I don’t know if I can make it another week xD
      It’s really too good for its own good ; 3;

      1. GrimGraffiti

        Eh! ….. I don’t think any one thought about that….

  154. ShifterGirl

    Well my mood is bummed. I didn’t even think about the cover. I don’t wanna wait another week! The suspense is killing me! :)

  155. Taika

    Now whose wolf form was huge, again?

  156. Savi

    Meela’s demon wolf form could earn you dudes some serious bucks. My suggestions are a plushie, a t-shirt, and a poster. As for other things ( free merch ) You could do a wallpaper or something
    just my two cents!

  157. FrozenKnight

    I have to admit that that wolf form is among the most awesome beasts i have ever seen. Kinda sad the way it was brought out. Creates a lot of questions about her, and has definitely spiked my interest in the story. personally i would love to get a detailed plaster version of this, plushies don’t have much detail and often abstract too much. Wouldn’t even mind if the glowing parts were florescent or LED lit, to add to the effect.

  158. Superstar19

    Meela just beat the shit out of Korin.

  159. Tenebris

    If only I had the money and link/store name to buy this comic from… I would worship it :| Just saying

  160. Randomosaurusrex

    Oi meela remember when you afsked farel if he was a demon wolfperson(sorry i couldn’t remember how to Spell lupin right)? Well now Would be an appropriate time to ask you the same.

  161. WolfstuckinaHole

    *takes out popcorn* oooh i love dis

  162. ZeroHnd

    D: OMG Nice!

  163. Guesticus

    Guess Korin won’t be hurting anyone else, ever again

  164. Gingkage

    I have to admit it, as somewhat terrifying as Meela’s demon-looking transformation is, I like it better than her normal, gangly-limbed one.

    Normal transformation: Cute, scruffy, and all gangly limbs.
    Demon transformation: There are no words for how epic it is.

  165. Tuomi

    om-gosh. she is… sooooo COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  166. imanicebear

    at least she got revenge…

  167. imanicebear

    ooouuuhh spikes and blood! *clapclapclap*

  168. Wolfyluvstapies

    Badass wolf demon Meela >:D

  169. QueenZombie

    OMG that is awesome!!!!! (0-0)
