This review is from: Kevin & Kell: Accepting Domestication (Kevin & Kell) (Paperback)

Accepting Domestication is the third collection of Kevin and Kell comic strips, covering September 1997 to August 1998. The online comic strip is about the Dewclaws; Kevin, a rabbit, Kell, a wolf and their two children, Rudy, a wolf and Lindesfarne, a hedgehog. In a world where you next door neighbor could be your next meal, this "mixed" marriage subjects the Dewclaws to a number of inconviences: being looked down upon by Rudy's girlfriend Fiona's parents, a pair of foxes (though it doesn't help that Fiona's father, a fennec fox, is mistaken for a rabbit because of his ears), and occasional threats to Kevin's life (though not serious) by Kell's brother Ralph. That is not to mention the usual tribulations of modern life: trips to school hunting championships, predator retraining at Herdthinners, Inc., threats to be downsized, and getting invited to the Jerry Springer-Spaniel Show. Mr. Holbrook is able to create great characters and stories, while balancing the dictates of the familiar yet unfamilar world that his animal characters inhabit. As an added bonus to this collection is a 10-page "pamphlet" covering Domestication, a dreaded condition when wolves are proud to be decended from the Big Bad Wolf.
