Geez Holland, can't a girl go pee in the woods without getting the third degree?
Also I should probably note that while Holland is mostly vegetarian, he does eat fish occassionally, being a swan and all.
Either that, or she’s been counting the days since her brother died… but I think it more likely she’s counting the days ’till she has to leave the group, like you said.
im wondering if it has something to do with her family they might turn into wolf permanently and go crazy or turn into a wolf on the inside and kill everybody?
LOL You obviously don’t have vegetarian friends… Pahahaha we carnivores mean it all in good fun, but it bothers them when we.. Well, do exactly what Feral is doing. Shoving meat in the face lol
So nice page! I’m really curious what will be next n_n
Meela is hiding a secret, this is so exciting!
on the 3rd pannel, where is book and Meela’s writings, some of the shading lays on her hand. It’s nothing big and I propably can see it only because I’m using a mobile device with big screen and the comic page is a bit zoomed.
If you are asking where she has the book on the third panel, it’s on her lap. If you’re asking where the book went after she got up, chances are she put it away before getting up.
Sorry for grammar mistakes, that makes me difficult to understand properly n_n”
I was just talking about small coloring mistake in third pannel (brown hues on Meela’s hand), not about her book :)
Djer
It’s not a coloring mistake. If you look at the first panel, you can see that she’s writing with her legs propped up, so the book is facing away from the fire. As a result, her hand and most of the page she’s writing on are in shadow.
I had a thought last night: What if this deep dark secret of hers turns Feral, Holland, and Piper against her and they have to track her down and kill her? And then shed have to use her extremely new skills to be able to doge around them so they can’t find her? O thought that would be a semi dark twist.
(So saying ‘last night’ is a lie, it was more around 2am)
I can definitely picture that happening. Meela’s family was tracked down by bounty hunters for some reason and if Feral found out do you think he’d put Meela ahead of his job?
I’m not so sure. I can picture Feral turning on Meela although in the last minute before he hurts/kills her decides against it. It’d definitely add drama.
That first panel is SO BEAUTIFUL! ;_; *weeps tears for prettyness* I do believe this is the first ‘group shot’ we’ve had of our four main protagonists all together, and it came out great!
I would personally really love to see a larger, better res version of the first panel as a desktop image or a poster or something like that. Anyone else agree? Maybe our awesome comic artists will make it happen if there’s enough call for it. :3
I love this page! I love this whole story! I can’t wait for the next one. But I must ask.. Why is the campfire different in the first and last panels? In the first it looks like it’s on the ground, but in the last it appears in a bowl. Just wondering.
It (the book that is) looks like some sort of lunar chart, though the phases of the moon don’t match with any charts I know. The last line interestingly enough has an “x” marker, I guessing Meela plans on leaving when that row is marked to 15. Or heres a though it could be a numbers system instead of a lunar chart with phases of the moon.
Meela seems to be growing into those huge boots. :D
Feral is a wonderful troll – Holland looks mad AND scared. xD
If anyone else remembers, in a previous page where Meela was using magic which started acting up, she was afraid that Holland would “figure out why”. And now she talks about counting down the days until her happiness is over. Seems like the two pages are closely linked by the same mystery question.
The suspense is immense! :D

gosh Feral, didn’t ya mum eva tell ya to not tease vegetarians?
I learned that the hard way.
digidragon
Holland is eating fish…………
flyteck
He turns into a swan. Swans eat fish (maybe?) and not meat. Plus a lot of vegetarians eat fish but not read meat/poultry.
Kyuubi
Oooh is anyone else sensing a deep dark secret to be revealed, because I know I am!
Foxxtrot
Feral’s expression in the next to last panel is priceless. XD He’s so cute! Run Holland!
Clamps
Does anyone else think Meela is counting down the days till she has to go off on her own?
Lin
Either that, or she’s been counting the days since her brother died… but I think it more likely she’s counting the days ’till she has to leave the group, like you said.
Bluerosebud
Maybe she assumes bounty hunters will come for her new family too.
circus tigress
wow that a good idea :D it completely fits in with the story
Cenica
I was thinking maybe something happens on a certain day becuase those look like moon phases on there….
Alvara101

Good eye. That’s me coloring outside of the lines because I’m a rebel like that.
Or it’s just a goof that I have now fixed. Thanks!

I would really like a poster with all four from Strays being themselves like this to add to my webcomic poster wall ; )

Wolfeth
I’d buy it, that’s for sure!
Rythos
I would love both a giant desktop version as WELL as a great big print! I WOULD BUY THE HECK OUT OF A GREAT BIG PRINT. Or even a little one!
TsumeWolfClaws
I’d totally buy a print of that.
DreamBoyMal
Oh, wow–it WOULD make for a pretty nice poster and/or desktop wallpaper, wouldn’t it?
Emergencyfan51
Oh gosh Feral that face. I seriously need the second to last panel as a button or something! XD
IloveHolland1129
I completly forgot that Holland was a swan until the creators said something
LAU
panel four almost makes it look like meela has some boobs. O.O
just another troll
…
NO.
Bluerosebud
That first panel is a masterpiece among the panels that make up this beautiful page.
Panel 5…Yeah, we really need a button of this. XD
LicianDragon
Really wanting to know her frickin secret already!!!!
Lauren
Feral has a joker side! I Love his face! :D Poor Holland!
Ooohhhhhhh all be over soon? SUSPENSE! Can’t wait!
LeeDenn
Meela, man I love her!
Time
Feral! Who knew you liked to fool around as well! XDDD He didn’t seem like the type until this page came out! I love the ‘evil grin’ on him! >:D
Hmm… where is Meela goin’?
Anagha
I love this page! I love this whole story! I can’t wait for the next one. But I must ask.. Why is the campfire different in the first and last panels? In the first it looks like it’s on the ground, but in the last it appears in a bowl. Just wondering.
Bouac
If you look carefully you can see that it’s the same, but they just placed a bowl in front of it in the last panel.
Sofy
Holy crap Holland and Feral. That’s the best expression of them yet! XD
AHAHAH. MY STOMACH. Awesome page by the way. :D
Amber
Aaack! What’s going on?? D8

I thought.. Oh I don’t even know. I just figured she was counting down days and the moons were just a reminder for her. Eheh ^^;
dragonia
Oh Feral, I love you. XD But Meela, you and your secrets… how dare you torment us. Tell us your secrets! D:
Keenawolfwoman
Fifth panel… LMAO!!! Oh, Feral, you’re FUNNY sometimes!
