It is because one of the founders of The Cud Club invented [[SuperPrototype Collar Zero]], which would later become the prototype of the ShockCollar used in present day.]]

** The GasMaskMooks who [[spoiler:are also goats.]] They look downright demonic.
** The room housing what appear to be test subjects of [[spoiler:"the collars that don't shock"]] is where the comic gets viscerally scary for a moment; in big part because of how it's presented. During the intense chase scene, the protagonists barge through a door into a room and proceed to run down a walkway. And in the next panel, "the camera" zooms out and focuses on a throng of [[spoiler:collared predators standing everywhere around, absolutely still (in contrast with the dynamic chase that was just happening), grinning absent-mindedly despite bleeding and missing parts of their bodies and faces.]] And in the very next panel, the protagonists of the chapter get out of the room, never even acknowledging what was in there.
