The Fox and the Crow #103

When Spot worries that Stanley’s growing love of pranks might be getting out of hand, he decides to talk to Stanley’s dad—though that means revealing himself to Mitch Dover. The conversation starts smoothly, but things spiral when the rest of the supernatural crew, including the Ghost of Napoleon and Schnitzel, unexpectedly show up, leaving Mitch convinced he’s losing his mind.

Fauntleroy Fox sets off on a vacation, only to find himself mysteriously rerouted by a series of cleverly placed detour signs—each leading him straight back to Crawford Crow’s house. Disguised and ready, Crow has turned his own home into a rental for his fox friend’s stay, turning a simple getaway into an unexpected twist of hospitality.

When the Hare pulls off a clever ruse, convincing the Hound and his son that a chicken-fat diet has made him grow to giant size, the duo eagerly decide to try it too—unaware they're being played. With the Hare watching from the sidelines, the Hounds dive into their new diet, setting up a classic case of mistaken size and mistaken motives.

Fauntleroy Fox spends the year meticulously preparing for winter, only to find his efforts undone when Ernie the Termite and his crew have been quietly dining on his home all along. Now stranded, Fox must move in with Crawford Crow and share his winter supplies—leading to a season of unexpected cooperation, and maybe a little grumbling.
