Arinna
Beautiful page! :D
Lafia
That’s some gorgeous drama going on right there ^^
So excited for the new chapter to begin!! But then… anxious because Strays was originally conceived as a 3 volume series… and if each volume is five chapters long… that means we’re about to begin on the final book!!! Oh this is killing me on a number of levels… XD -dies-
Even if I don’t have the weekend off of work – you make Fridays the best day of the week for me <3 Thank you, both!!! ^^
Ebeth+Bliza

(Also, i noticed the updated still image for latest page XD)
Awwwwwwwwh, Meela!!!
STOP IIIIIIT!!!!! YOUR LONLEY HOWLS MAKE ME DEPRESSED!!!!!!
Bluerosebud
Oh, I did not expect this beautiful scene right there–the landscape, the dark color palette, the wailing howl, the gorgeous sky, and of course Meela’s wolf-form–It’s all so dramatic and perfect! This is certainly my favorite webcomic, and now I’ll go vote and prove it.
Irishxlily
Great job girls :D, nice dramatic and sad tone to end the chapter. Makes me feel like THINGS are going to happen ouo
Woodstock
oh my….such a beautiful page! Great job!!
Secrets
I’ve been reading back through the comic and had a crazy thought. What if the reason that Meela has to leave before/on her thirteenth B’day (Also why bounty hunters are after her) is because she is a Demon Lupin or Half-demon Lupin (Feral’s red lighting of doom looks very similar to Meela’s acting up magic.)
This also ties into the Bracelet. Remember when she freaked out when she didn’t have it? What if the Bracelet magically hides what she really is until her powers develop on her birthday?
Anyway just a thought. Loved the single page!
ManSerpent
LOL I just told my sister that the other day. I hope that’s what it is. I want more drama.
MadIsTheSun
I was starting to wonder if I was the only one with this theory! XD I don’t think the bracelet has any powers though, it seems mostly sentimental. With the backstory that developed she may be a quarter-demon, her dad seems mostly lupin.
Tigerfur
Oh yes, this gives away a lot.
KC
Awesome.
octomalin
I want to hug her. ;___; One of those long, huggy hugs.
Emergencyfan51
Holy crap this page is amazing. Like I’m making it my iPod background amazing.
Emergencyfan51

Arthwaya
YES I want this as a wallpaper!
Nokota
HEY can we please have a walpaper of this one without the “arooooo”? the text sort of spoils the beautiful artwork.
Jae
I made a wallpaper of this page and then I saw your voting incentive and added that to my cache as well >w<
NyraWolf
Beautiful! Poor Meela :(
Allayna
Wow, so pretty! But why am I thinking that here and now would be a perfect time for that cat to attack?
Keenawolfwoman

Savannah
Holy… wow. Just wow. I am continually blown away by the amount of amazingness that you all crank out every week. Mad props, seriously.
Wolftrest
So beautiful! I don’t just say this randomly, but this is my favorite page. The lighting, the pose, and the setting makes it “howl” loneliness.
Just curious, but are they still in West Meolley?
Algy
Yes, they are still in West Meoley.
Julia Balcom
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing panel it’s beatiful. But Meela oh god. I feel like Meela is hiding something.
b0bcat16
could it be her secret about the bounty hunters????
Hikari-Tono
Oh, what is Meela so sad about?
Oh How i hate Cliffhangers!
By the way, Beautiful artwork on this page! ;)
Hikari-Tono
I Know, it, i just know it has to do with the Bounty hunters!
b0bcat16
yea me too
or it could be about something else
DreamBoyMal
The one-panel pages in this comic are always gorgeous, but WOW…this is something else! Tragically beautiful in a way that only Strays can be–that’s always been one of the things I love most about this comic. =)
LAU
screw the campfire scene. I want THIS as a wallpaper. OwO
Vegie
This page… it’s so beautiful.

I’m in love with this page <3 Well done, Getting a little sad though.. What's going to happen? =[
SotiCoto
Fancy that. Nobody has claimed anything to be “priceless” on this page.
Well done.
And is that supposed to be a road or a river in the background?
Nothing wrong with it being a road… but if it is a river, the lay of the land could be considered a bit odd.
Bluerosebud
I think it’s a river–but if you look carefully, it comes from around the cliff and not through it (unless you meant something else.)
SotiCoto
It is kinda tough to explain. The valley looks artificial… The river is meandering somewhat, which one would expect more from flatter landscapes than hilly terrain… yet there are obviously slopes there. And if the river had carved the valley then you’d expect the slopes to match themselves to the sides of the river.
I can’t really explain it well though. I only did a unit or two on river channels and suchlike at undergrad level, and that was quite a while ago so I can’t really remember the details…
weled
Ow, awesome… would be nice as a poster :)

The feels.

If your going to cry do it in wolf form then at least you sound cool

Meela, the high and mighty queen of subtlety.
