Anthro Comics @pawb.social

What are some of your favorite furry/anthro comics/webcomics?

Two of my biggest inspirations atm for me are TwoKinds, which basically introduced me to the fandom and, rn, Uberquest, which is a pretty cool fantasy-adventure comic (Although I don't like that there's so much text in the beggining lmao)

The only physical anthro comic I remember reading tho was Blacksad once, but don't remember much.

Any of you have any cool comics or webcomics to share your interest towards?

  • You already mentioned TwoKinds, so I'll skip that one and get to some deeper cuts:

    Night Physics: This is one of my all time favorites. Simply described by the author as: "a comic about a bear and his friends." A slice-of-life that contemplates the intricacies of navigating life in your 20's. (CW for: mature themes, drug use).

    Pixeas and Henry: A story about two unlikely friends struggling for acceptance and coming to terms with themselves and their lives. (CW for: mature themes, implied SA, drug use, one of the characters struggles against homophobia, both internalized and external.)

    Synthetic Instinct: From the author: "A Cyberpunk-Dystopia. Isa's mundane life is completely changed when the government finds out that she is a chimera- a hybrid of two unrelated genus. Navigating an unforgiving society Isa befriends a demobilized war machine named Rex, whose past is much darker and violent than she may realize. A story about who you are versus what the world wants you to be. Updates once a month."

    Derideal: A series of sci-fi comics (there are several side stories set in the same universe available to read through) featuring anthro animals created as test projects for a shadowy corporate-state.

    Project Roar: Not sure how to describe this one...A speculative historical fiction/sci-fi about a group of soldiers in WWII, biological experimentation, and their lives and experiences after the war. The story is still unfolding, but this is the general theme of the comic so far...

    The Slow Decline: From the author: "When the world ended, they happened to be out of town. Now two co-workers, Rudy and Tom, are alone in a city that is making less sense by the day. The Slow Decline follows the two as they make their way through the mundane life of surviving the apocalypse. From anomalies at the breakfast table, smoke falling from the sky in the afternoon, or disembodied screaming through the night, it's all just another day at the end of it all. Updated EVERY THURSDAY!"

    Psychopomp: From the author: "Something spooky’s happening in the eerie Southern town of Bonaventura, and Ray’s the only mutt who can communicate with the restless spirits plaguing the town. This ability might help him save the town from a supernatural threat, but it can’t help him navigate his own mundane life. Psychopomp is a queer comic which blends the campy mystery fun of Gravity Falls with the atmospheric horror of Silent Hill."

    Lackadaisy: I'm sure you're already familiar with the animation, but before the animation, there was this comic. Beautifully illustrated and painstakingly historically researched, the comic follows a down-on-its-luck crew of rum-runners and the speakeasy they supply in prohibition-era St. Louis.

    And for dessert, the saccharine sweet Duncan and Eddie: From the author: "Two boyfriends stumbling their through life together. They may not be the most competent couple, but that won't stop them from loving each other to bits! Updates every SUNDAY"

  • Angels with Broken Hearts - A prequel to the Angels with Scaly Wings visual novel.

    Out-of-Placers - Medieval ex soldier gets transformed into a yinglet (think furred kobold thing) and must now adapt to their new life.

    Two Kinds didn't really catch my attention when I tried to read it, but a lot of people seem to like it.

  • Shocked and appalled that no one has mentioned Freefall yet. One of the earliest webcomics on the entire Internet and still updating today every M/W/F, Freefall explores the question "Humanity has created robots with full human-level consciousness. Now what?" Some of my favorite topics that it tackles are how robots will or won't replace jobs and the ethics of creating a sapient creature and adding a way for you to give it orders that it physically cannot disobey.

    My favorite part about Freefall is that even when it's talking about deep and often depressing philosophical questions (which are definitely not the majority of the comic!), it never fails to keep the tone upbeat, liberally sprinkling in jokes to make sure we don't get too depressed. It's also incredibly careful to avoid using foul language, containing such curses as "Oh, poop!", "Oh, carp!" and "Holy this!"

    URL in case Lemmy messes it up is http://freefall.purrsia.com NOT HTTPS. Mark Stanley (the comic's author) has not seen the need to upgrade yet, and if you try to visit his site using https, you'll get a Connection Refused.

    I recommend reading Freefall using the Freefall Flytable/Speed Reader which loads every strip in a huge "infinite scroll" webpage (not actually infinite but you get the idea) so you don't have to keep clicking next every time. Alternately, if you (or anyone who's reading this) is interested, I've been working for a while on a program that can download the entire archive of most any webcomic as a .cbz file that can be opened with most any comic book viewer (even some PDF viewers!) for offline viewing, and I've been looking for an excuse to polish it up and release it.
