Furry Tales
I'm not as big a furry fan as others I've seen -- but that doesn't mean I don't recognize the importance of furry fandom in the world of online comics. Here's my little
tribute to it. :-)
Furry Worlds:
There seem to exist three major categories into which we can divide furry comics -
"New Eden" worlds which contain humans and furries in (peaceful or not)
coexistence... There exist worlds which are solely furry-populated, but
the attitude and lifestyle is otherwise mostly human... And, lastly, in some of these worlds predation still takes place, and societies live perilously in the balance between
carnivore and herbivore...
Human-Furry coexistence

Furry only -- no predation

Predation

Note: The list above is very incomplete so far, limited only
to the comics I'm personally acquainted with. I plan to keep on adding to this list
- and any reader is of course also invited to send me suggestions of new comics to add.
Lucky for us, it seems that there are many artists out there who can't resist
drawing their furry characters like humans or vice-versa! Exactly the thing this
site thrives on. :-) Click the title to be taken to each comic.

Note: Vince Suzukawa is
the undisputed champion in diplaying his furry characters with human
forms... His storyline 'Only
Human' in particular, had a furry Tony pass into the human world, and vice versa... |

Note: Believed to have
come from the imagination of Lindesfarne Dewclaw, but in reality an ancient
racial memory, the importance of these weird creatures called "humans" has
steadily grown with time... |

Note: With John 'The Gneech' Robey not that big in presenting human forms for his characters, all the humaniform pics from a single (nightmarish!) strip: February 27, 2000. |

Note: Normally using human characters, Kevin Pease seems to have
succumbed to pressure to draw them...furrily. Good for the rest of us!
