 A WebToon comic about an American hyena named Kathy Grrsn who discovers she is related to African royalty. This comic by K D Nightstar is full of adventure and fun with clever word play along for the ride! She is accompanied on this journey by her sister Sandy and Lieutenant Frederick Kruger (not THAT Freddy Kruger),who later becomes her love interest.

It had been raining for seven years; thousand upon thousands of days compounded and filled from one end to the other with rain, with the drum and gush of water, with the sweet crystal fall of showers and the concussion of storms so heavy they were tidal waves come over the islands. A thousand forests had been crushed under the rain and grown up a thousand times to be crushed again. And this was the way life was forever on the planet Venus, and this was the schoolroom of the children of the rocket men and women who had come to a raining world to set up civilization and live out their lives. “It’s stopping, it’s stopping!” “Yes, yes!” Margot stood apart from these children who could never remember a time when there wasn’t rain and rain and rain. They were all nine years old, and if there had been a day, seven years ago, when the sun came out for an hour a
