Housepets! Hope They Don't Get Eaten

I read all of the Housepets comics online as soon as a new one comes out and love having hard copies of them. The books themselves are of good quality. I bought them all as soon as I found out they were on Amazon. I highly recommend this series. Also my favorite part of the books is that the have some extras at the end of each book :3

This issue has some of the best stories and some on my personal favorites. It is so funny and will always put a smile on your face and make you laugh. The characters are maturing and the plots developing as the story picks up.

This is the second part of the "Housepets!" book saga. The stories continue to grow funnier, and at the same time more compelling. Being a fan of this series since late 2008, I've waited for the release of these books. So glad Rick decided to put his incredible series in dead tree form!

EDIT: Due to A+ personal customer service by Rick, this review has has its rating bumped up a star, since my misprint has since been replaced by the improved copy. I feel that this new rating now represents not only the product, but the man backing it up. [The review below is no longer relevant to the versions currently being sold] I'm not going to go into the quality of the comic itself, as most buyers of this wonderful web-turned-paper comic should already know what they are getting themselves into. I purchased the first run of prints, before the book was taken out of production temporarily and then put back up. The reason for this was due to a few errors. The first: color. When examining the color, it is noticeably darker and less accurate to the online version, even when compared to the first book, which is closer to the originals. This threw me off, initially, but doesn't actually impair ones ability to enjoy the comic. It's just a touch of inconsistency between Book 1 and Book 2, is all. The second, and more important: A missing strip. Now, this normally wouldn't matter a whole lot if it was a one-off strip, but the missing strip was from an actual arc. Not just any arc, either; it was a critical moment during the establishment of, who many consider to be their favorite character, everyone's favorite Welsh Corgi, angsty and short: King. These issues in the initial run, to the extent of my knowledge, have been fixed in the current run of prints. The text on the prose All the King's Men has been downsized to reduce the amount of pages, as well. While the current run most likely deserves the five-star reviews, I can't help but think of the initial buyers who received a bit less than they expected. EDIT: As it turns out, Rick Griffin is now offering to replace the 25 or so copies that were sold before the fix. Check out housepetscomic.com for more info if you are one of the few that purchased the first run.

Yes, if we're talking about HOUSEPETS! The author's unique combination of art and writing provides endless fun for the reader, and a character insight that has few matches in the kingdom of strip comic. When you think you knew a character, foresee a situation, Rick Griffin will surprise you with the classical 'unexpected twist'. Fine quality print and extra art, AND the delightful ALL THE KING'S MEN, the first canon short story, make for a good experience both for new and old readers.

I purchased this as a gift for a good friend. I've got to say that this is an excellent webcomic! Each character and story arc is wonderfully charming (and of course, well-drawn). I always enjoy a good laugh or smile and Housepets gives me that. I'm certainly looking forward to more publications.

Love the Pets!!

I loved it. If you like " Housepets, Naked all the Time." This is a great sequel.

This has been mentioned before, but the printed version does not give justice to the online version. Specifically, the night scenes have printed off far to dark so you cannot actually see the background (it is more or less a plain black back ground). Also, yellow has printed off with a heavy green tinge, this is most obvious in panels with Pete (his legs and beak look green and its really annoying). None of these affect the reading of the comic, and we all know that the comic itself is awesome, and the few printing issues can be overlooked.

Great

I LOVE THE WHOLE SERIES!

This comic contains all the humor of the first one but it also has a more dramatic and touching side in the form of the new Character King who is trying to adapt to his new life in Babylon Gardens.

An amazeing web comic put in print. Soon as i learned of it i Had to get it ( also purchased Book 1). I highly recomend it to anyone that enjoys a comical slice of life style comic.

Very happy with my order. Hilarious.

First I'll start off by saying that the print job is fantastic. The pages feel sturdy and the ink contrasts perfectly with the paper for easy reading. While I still would have preferred a hardcover copy, its nice have a physical copy of the webcomic I follow religiously.

A great comic series that is well worth your time to read and enjoy it. And, no lie, it keeps getting better as it goes along! A vast cast of chracters and storylines that will have you laughing with and at them (And sometimes even crying as well as you feel the pain they're going through.) If you can afford it, do get all of the available books at the same time. You won't regret it!

Well, its like Housepets Volume 1, except this one follows on afterwards ... what else can you say? It's an amazing web-comic in dead tree format. How can you get any better than that?

I own a few chickens I too hope they don't get eaten

Nice, funny and some good bonus content
