The artist known as AshG is an active-duty member of the U.S. Navy, often deployed on ships at sea. But somehow she still finds the time and energy to create Monster’s Garden, a full-color on-line comic. It tells the story of Kilo Monster, a championship fighter (and reptile) who is thrown out of his homeland.  Now he lives his life for the protection of his friends (human and otherwise) and the peace of his home garden. The official web site includes a link to AshG’s Society6 store of art prints and other items.

Going to NordicFuzzCon this year? It looks like EZ Cooldown is supporting the NFC Maids Cafe and will be serving hot coffee, cappuccinos and cooling vests. Kinda wild really.

For more information, visit writescott.com.I am excited to participate as a judge in the Leo Literary Awards because I have some knowledge of the furry community, mainly through documentaries (some made by furries themselves, some not), but I must confess I have never read any furry literature. Approaching this as a non-furry, I’m eager to delve into what must be fascinating stories and to be drawn into a new world that I have so far only viewed from the outside.Stanley Jenkins is the author of A City on a Hill: An Indirect Memoir (Outpost19, 2013) and Down the Plymouth Road: An Indirect Spiritual Autobiography (Thurston Howl Publications, 2018).

Nickelodeon has a new cat and it is NOTHING like Lego Unikitty ... Nope. Still, I'm all for more Anibi (Anubises?) in animation.

I never knew Leopards had refined tastes like that but I should have expected as much. This series of commercials were made by Polish effects outs Platige Images [1] for a Dubai based marketing company [2]. "Schweppes +C The Refinement continues... Our leopard attends a fancy horse racing championship and meets an unexpected guest. Schweppes +C A unique, refreshing lemon drink for a more civilized age." https://youtu.be/GlxF2SfFtIE [1] https://www.platige.com/ [2] http://www.memacogilvy.com/

We have a visually interesting new Korean animated feature [1] directed by Chun-Baek Lee [2] and Oh Seong-Yoon [3]. So a bit like Watership Down but with dogs? kinda. "The Underdog" is a theater animation about the story of abandoned dogs. Stray dogs who have been abandoned by humans find 'a place without humans' and realize their identities and the meaning of freedom."

I'm reminded of a quote by Terry Pratchett:  "She could see things that were really there. (Which is much harder than seeing things that aren't there. Everyone does that.)" "How much do we really want others to know about us and what do we want to know about them? A mockumentary about the aftermath of a disaster causing everyone to loose their perception filters."

I do want some crumpets ... but not enough to eat haggis.

The back-up series from the well-known Exit Stage Left: The Snagglepuss Chronicles comic has broken out on its own now. The Sasquatch Detective full-color one-shot was written by Brandee Stilwell with art by Ron Randall and Gus Vazquez. “Before Tonya Lightfoot became Los Angeles’ most decorated detective, she was a wee sasquatch roaming the Appalachian mountains, fed a steady diet of tennis and golf (as both of her parents are pros at the local country club) and CSI episodes. But her idyllic life of pranking campers and squatching around the local golf course hits a bump in the fire road when Bigfoot hunters come to the dense forest. Would Tonya back down in the face of adversity? Not yeti! But experiencing this abominable anti-sasquatch sentiment gives her the determination to leave her home behind-she heads to the dangers of the city. After all, it’s hard to fight un-conscious bias, but crime is something America’s sassiest sasquatch is ready to tackle.” The one-shot features the original Snagglepuss material plus a whole new story. Look for it on the shelves.
