The monstrous Darkseid crosses dimensions to invade the world of Sonic the Hedgehog, seeking the ultimate power. Sonic and his friends have faced everything from mad scientists to ancient spirits, but the forces of Apokolips may be too much for them. Thankfully, the full heroic might of the Justice League arrives to back them up!” Brought to you by writer Ian Flynn and artists Adam Bryce Thomas and Matt Herms. Issues are going fast!

Of The Wilds

Furry Writers' Guild - Tue 15 Jul 2025 - 16:51

Today we lost one of our own after a serious illness. Of The Wilds was a brilliant writer who especially liked to write about dragons, probably best known for his serialized novel The Dragon in the Dungeon.

The loss of anyone in our community is painful, especially someone as young as Wilds. I only met him once in passing, when he leaned over his partner Resolute’s chair and waved at me via Zoom. I remember his smile and the happy mischief in his expression. While he was a quiet person, he left a positive impression on everyone he met.

His work lives on, a permanent window into his personality, humor, imagination, and skill as a writer. We will all miss him and grieve his loss, but we can also celebrate him by reading his stories. Like the last note of music that never quite fades, Of The Wilds will remain forever in his words.

Greedland Review (Xbox)

Gaming Furever - Furry Game News - Tue 15 Jul 2025 - 12:47

Every year, there seems to be a game that comes out and does something to really grab gamers attention, to where every developer wants to capitalize on it in their own way; From the many Half-Life style games to those aping Doom Eternal’s gameplay. This year, it seems the game to take inspiration from was Vampire Survivors. Now, we had Vampire Hunters which took the core concept but put it in first person (and, speaking personally, was one of my favorite games of 2024), so what happens when you take the concept of Survivors and, say, put it in space? That’s where Greedland comes in: A game, outside of accidentally calling it Greenland, is another fun ‘Vampire Survivor-like’ game, if not just slightly rough around the edges.

They’re Laughing At You, Not With You

In-Fur-Nation - Fri 11 Jul 2025 - 00:52

Wouldn’t consider Harley Quinn to be a furry fan  at all (look at what she did to Captain Carrot!) — but she does have a couple of interesting pets! And now they’re starring in their own DC Comics graphic novel, written and illustrated by Ben Hed (Pixie and Brutus). “When Harley’s hyenas, Bud & Lou, are framed with stealing the lasso of truth they’re forced to team up with two members of the Super-pets, Ace & Jumpa, to find the culprits. The unlikely team sets off on an adventure that leads them from Oswald Cobblepot’s penguins to Mr. Freeze’s polar bears. At the chance of being reunited with their beloved Harley, will Bud and Lou save the day and be the good guys for a change? If they aren’t careful, the lasso of truth might reveal how they really feel about being heroes!” Harley Quinn’s Bud and Lou: Trouble Times Two is available now.

Star Wars Outlaws Review

Gaming Furever - Furry Game News - Thu 10 Jul 2025 - 18:29

I said it once and I'll say it again: I love Star Wars, but even I will admit that the series has had some missteps throughout the years. The recent shut down of Star Wars Hunters comes to mind, and I think, personally, would've had a better longevitiy if it made it to Steam and Xbox. But, I digress, as that's neither here nor there. Today, I want to focus on a title that came out last year that seems to have been ignored by many and passed off by others: Star Wars Outlaws. It's a pity it got such a weird reception from fans as this is actually a pretty fun Star Wars game, if not one of my favorites.

Young Furry Finds It Hard to Be Herself in Conservative Kuwait

Ask Papabear - Wed 9 Jul 2025 - 13:46
Hello, Papabear,

I am a furry from Kuwait. So basically, I am an Arab furry. My issue is that in Kuwait (Or any other Arab country in particular) really HATES furries. I wish I was joking. I once ended a friendship in school because when my friend founded out I was a furry, he completely called me stuff like "doggy" and kept mocking me as an animal. Someone in 6th grade once tried to choke hold me because I was a furry, but I luckily managed to break his grip and ran away. I hid and saw him carrying a shoe trying to find and hit me. Luckily, he didn’t remember who I was, and now I’m in 7th grade. My brother was a furry hater and really would bash me for my opinions, but luckily now he respects me and doesn't care if I'm a furry. But he brought me to the discussion; my mom completely hated me being a furry, saying it was stupid stuff that brainwashed me online. But luckily my father came and discussed it happily. My father advised me not to be an anti-furry but not a furry either. Now I'm a furry after one year, and they don’t really care.


But I want to address the main issue. It’s hard to be a furry while living in an Arab country; they treat you more harshly than other stereotypes! They use the Holy Quran as a way to try and silence me. The verse was talking about how you shouldn’t imitate an animal, although furries DON'T imitate animals! It’s been a really hard time for me trying to cope with the environment. I always have to hide the fact I am a furry every time I’m near people. What advice could you please tell me to try and be more comfortable around them?

From,
Cherry (age 12, Kuwait)

* * *

Dear Cherry,

Many apologies for the late reply. Apparently, there was a server problem, and I didn't see your email.

Okay, yes, to be a furry in a religious Arabic country is complicated--or in any conservative society, for that matter. And, yes, I am very aware of how the Quran says people should not imitate animals nor even put them in art (people shouldn't be portrayed in art, either, especially not the Prophet). Even though the Bible does not prohibit such things, hatred of furries is also expressed in conservative Christian households, so it's not just about being Muslim; it's about being conservative, inflexible, and hateful about people who are different and don't follow one's religion to the letter.

As long as you live where you do, this will be a problem. It's great, though, that your father understands that your interest in furries is not necessarily sinful or bad in any way, and he seems to have influenced the rest of your family, too, not to bother you about it.

I would suggest that you follow your father's advice and not do anything furry in public. The best thing for you to do is explore the virtual furry community. Now, you seem to have access to a computer (since your email indicates you are not using a school or library server), which means you can access various furry worlds. The most fun for you would be to do so in places where you can have a furry avatar such as SecondLife or VRchat. Are you familiar with these? They offer virtual worlds to explore, many of which specialize in furry communities. You can purchase avatars to "wear" in both of these games, or, once you get more adept at using them, design your own unique furry avatars. VRchat has surpassed the older SecondLife for popularity, probably because you can experience it in 3D if you have VR goggles. You can also do a lot of furry stuff in online games such as World of Warcraft.

Since you are only 12 years old, even if you were in the USA, which has the largest furry community and a vast array of furcons and furmeets to attend, you wouldn't be able to do much in the real world because things like transportation and hotel fees would be an issue (unless your dad went with you). Of course, even adult American furries do more furry stuff online than in the real world, so this is not too much of an issue. As long as your parents are okay with your being a furry online (and do agree to let them supervise you; it's for your own good because you can sometimes run into trolls and bullies even in the furry world), then that is the best option for you.

Write again if you have questions, and I promise a quicker reply!!!

Bear Hugs,
Papabear

Preview The Furry Detectives docuseries, and learn how reporting emerged against backlash

Dogpatch Press - Wed 9 Jul 2025 - 03:53

Full series out July 17. The first 12 minutes of the first episode:

The Furry Detectives docuseries — The story they don’t want told, emerging against 7 years of backlash and interference.

Coming on AMC+: this 4-episode series introduces furries who investigated the 2018 zoosadist leaks. (More summary of the leaks.)

The leaks exposed evidence of deep-rooted, ongoing animal abuse networks in the community. They use furry as a cover, for organizing that isn’t easily dismissed with “anyone can be a furry, we can’t gatekeep it” disclaimers. Half of the truth is that abuse happens in any community — and internet tech and platforms are big factors not fully in our power — but the whole truth is that this behavior is uniquely among us in real-life organized ways seen nowhere else. It’s nobody else’s problem when our groups are run by and for us.

Making our own destiny is how fandom works at its best. However before the show releases, it’s catching some backlash for airing problems that the community didn’t properly deal with for 7 years. It’s like some people want things brushed under the rug so ignoring it can make it worse. That behavior was always holding back investigation over 7 years while publishing tens of thousands of words of reporting at Dogpatch Press.

There was a lot of generous team work as well, but some of the most counterproductive behavior was not just from incuriosity and denialism, putting optics over solutions, or random bad actors… Most alarmingly, there’s also corruption from influence at the top.

Bad leadership and suppression

Not everyone gives permission to abusers, and a lot of the extent was hidden before, but some complicit members did and still do. This community has a faction of long-time members, who tacitly or even openly treat zoophilia as a harmless sexual identity, instead of a vector for abuse where there is no safe place for it. This situation existed since the 1990’s, before furry was in mainstream media at all.

Some names are named at bottom. Example: the fandom’s longest sitting con chair since the 1990’s is a zoophile sympathizer who repeats their talking points, lies about it, drives attacks at people who dare criticize it, and has done it as a group co-runner with a zoosadist from the leaks.

Sympathizers with influence may use it insidiously in private channels. That’s hidden from the superficial level of social media, that can distort any info you learn about anything. This behavior from closed crony spaces is the shadow side of online bewares, that often get dismissed in those same spaces. Even organizers with good intentions want to dismiss these stories for being hard to handle. Ignorance is exploitable: some of the worst abusers use trust and privilege to access victims and protect what they do, and get dark social credit over others that keeps them from talking. The result is underreporting and only superficial public awareness, even when a few high profile individuals get notice (like Kero the Wolf, who is investigated in the docuseries.)

Backlash started before a word was reported here, from the day the leaks tagged the site without warning in 2018. Later in the show, you can see how Dogpatch Press was a target of suspicious, coordinated and pre-emptive messages to throw off looking at the leaks. There was also furry con organizer pressure to cover up, discredit reporting, or gain silence with threats. It didn’t succeed. Dogpatch Press stands by reporting all the way to winning lawsuits, and will face down threats all the way to exposing what they hide on TV.

Secret work and the tip of an iceberg

The backlash, and untrustworthiness of groups with guilty people inside, forced an initial year of investigation by Dogpatch Press to happen in secret. A 5-part series published by surprise in 2019 on the 1-year anniversary of the leaks. This reporting reached the producers of The Furry Detectives and made the show happen. Nothing was pitched to them to get deals, they were brought here by pro-bono public service reporting.

As a rule, documentary doesn’t pay sources for interviews.

Secret investigation, done for free, is very time consuming and thankless. A lot of it in 2018-2019 went into an exhaustively researched evidence channel with multi-source analysis of chat logs, like no other investigation did.

The Furry Detectives is coming out against the same old interference. People with influence want to keep the lid on. They often do it with rhetoric against “cancel culture”, even while they know what they’re hiding. Many zoosadists outed 7 years ago got away, and are still here under new names that only their friends know.

This story isn’t old or fully told. You can see the tip of an iceberg by number of arrests vs. number of ring members in the leaks who had no consequences. The total of people in abuse networks may be a small fraction of the community, but proportion doesn’t measure influence and impact on victims while they persist.

Propaganda and chaos holding back solutions

Zoosadists are here now, and aided by organized zoophile groups on the level of thousands of members. They feel safe to use furry as cover with podcasts and magazines for propaganda. They tend to claim “trust me, we’re against abuse” while using deceptive hairsplitting to re-define abuse as some animals can consent, and coercing our victims isn’t real abuse. They only belatedly throw token “real abusers” under the bus to shed liability, after making opportunity and access for them. Now think, do you see pedophiles organizing on this level? Changing this isn’t asking for a lot.

Private tips to this site say that some furry organizers who covered for zoophiles are finally catching heat for it now, 7 years late. It’s catching up to people who hid things, like uncovering church or school abusers who got moved around to keep their influence. They’re worried about what’s going to be in this show, after they made it everyone’s problem and are desperate to point fingers elsewhere about what they let go for so long.

On top of that, there has been long time interference from the Kiwifarms website. It complicates investigation by spoiling evidence and adding outside backlash to the kind inside. Kiwifarms was created for smear tactics, not justice. Boiled down to simple structure, such websites can shield anonymous whistleblowing when furry and corporate sites don’t, but the upside of identifying zoosadists is a side effect, and often driven by bigotry towards LGBT people who did nothing wrong. The result is lack of rigor and vision from many directions, that holds back organized solutions about organized abuse.

Cutting through the noise

The show producers came to this mess, read reporting against interference, picked committed sources to work with, and applied good intentioned and well resourced production. They got sensitivity advice from furries over several years of making it, all before the most recent election.

Positive image is actively created, not selected from only the parts you want told. If we forget the root of a problem and only worry about how it looks, it will never go away. Either this gets told, or it gets brushed under and guilty people continue using your spaces. Then it gets worse, and next time, outsiders will tell the story for you with even less agency in how you are seen.

When the show trailer released, notice how optics-based suppression was some people’s priority before even seeing much of anything. Now the more notice it’s getting, the more comments there are about “actually it looks good”.

From seeing the theater premiere at the Tribeca Festival in New York on June 10, it is good and there’s nothing to regret. The question is, can it do enough? It does what a TV show is for and tells a watchable story with a beginning and end, but it’s really just a start. Let’s see what happens for Season 2.
