Once again, the theme of this series is not meant to offend smokers. Those who know me, know that I find pictures of furry characters smoking to be quite attractive, despite any RL implications or views.

I also enjoy seeing horrible things happen to my rat, Rodent, so the idea came to mind of combining the two of these together. This is merely meant to be a humorous take on what an ad campaign that warns against smoking might be like within the context of a furry universe.

For this encounter, Rodent comes across  Ribnose during one of his more pyro moments. Stopping to enjoy Ribnose's handiwork, Rodent decides to ask for a light during a pause in the action. Ribnose is all too happy to oblige.

Once again, my thanks to Jenociide for doing such an incredible job with this series. I love the layout of the scenes and the action; with the colors, flames and characters coming out wonderful. Her art style is fitting perfectly into the mood and feel of these comics.

Please head on over to Jenociide's page and let her know if you're enjoying this series as well.
