I've been meaning to give the demons a Cerebus style dog for a few months... and this popped into my head while I was trying to come up with jokes for a comic so it became one.
Lyn is watching Jack's dog while he's away on his honeymoon so that's who that little guy is she's holding.
I remembered that I had put Valerie in a coat for a strip a while ago so I had to go
back to 2011 to find it. I don't always make sure that characters are wearing the same thing since I do let them change up their outfits over time... but I wanted to use it again and I think it's fitting for her still.
