That'll do, Ruffles. That'll do.

.......daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn......

Oh motherfucker... I probably should not have read this considering my cat was killed yesterday. I'm almost in tears... =(

[worldwillshout]

He's so sad. =[

[aulayan]

...I...I ... I don't know if I love this story or hate it. Conflicting feelings!

[mullon]

Meh, I didn't need a tragic backstory for the character. Now he just kind of pathetic. And this makes the blue weird. He didn't need to be from earth for us to care.

[espanolbot]

Kitty! :( He needs a friend.

Bring forth the Selina or the Karen!

Not the Kara, she sucks.

[turtlefu]

This doesn't sound like Rage to me...
it's not angry enough.

And seriously, if the cat is from Earth, then why is it named Dex-Starr?

(Adding "depth" to a joke character is NEVER a good idea.)

[nagaoka]

D : That second to last panel.....brb crying now

[alephz]

YOU ARE BEST KITTY, DEX!

I HEART YOOOOOOOOU!

[savitar]

I'm a cat person so yeah this does make me a tad sad.

Also if anything but these pages was posted would have been anarchy!

[kirke_novak]

"I kill" Yeah... How do you know your cat wants to kill you? First of all, it's not "yours" and second of all: it does, trust me.

I say it as a cat person.

[icon_uk]

I dunno, I'm disappointed they made him from Earth, and I really don't see a cat being a good choice for a "rage" based character, they're too mercurial.

Now a trained attack dog, or some sort of dog trained for cage fighting, THAT I could get behind, but not a house-cat that's just had a bad, bad, day.

Oh, and talk/thinking like that? We3 did it better.

[sweettart1823]

Aww :( Dex <3

I didn't see them making his history so sad. Poor Kitty <3 I want to hug him now I don't care if he'd burn my face off.

[aeolos_sakya]

I was expecting Ruffles were from another planet, but anyway.
It's an interesting concept, people sometimes forget animals actually have feelings.

And, in the other hand, it's really a sad history.
You are truly a good kitty, Ruffles :(

[hybrid2]

damn it. why do I always get something in my eyes when I come here?

[ormardu.blogspot.com]

"There may be trouble ahead......"

[protogarrett]

Oh... I feel sad for him. =(

[sailorlibra]

I'm gonna cry now.

[thehefner]

So many things don't quite work with this, particularly the name and the blue which indicate he's clearly meant to be an alien cat, but this is too much of a WE3 style mix (of the dog and the cat) that I can't help but get totally :C

Like, seriously tearing up. WTF.

[dr_von_fangirl]

"Okay...this is kind of lame and contrived. Blah, blah, bla--"

*I find one who hurt you. I kill.*

"Oh, what, seriously?"

*I good kitty.*

"*bursts into hysterical tears*"

Damn it, Geoff Johns. DAMN IT.

[bolava]

manly tears

[sindra]

;_;

I miss my kitty. I had to leave her at home with my folks.

[kingrockwell]

I'm torn. On the one hand, awwwww kitty!
On the other, they just fridged a woman to motivate a fucking cat. What the hell, Johns.

[proteus_lives]

You are a good kitty! Yes you are!
