Are We Not Men?

Image
   Mordrick was rolled into the common area on a kind of stretcher, bound up and gagged. The place was all in concrete and stone and brick, a lattice of metal bars blocking off the sky overhead. He noticed where other people poked their heads through the small circular openings that passed for windows high on the walls.     The attendants unstrapped Mordrick and removed the gag. They had stripped him of all clothing and belongings, so he might as well just be a humanoid animal. Some might say he was that to start with, since his was a sort of hybrid species, a pink unicorn man with hooves, tail, and short fur all over. Still, he was not accustomed to being treated as an animal.     “This is your new home,” said the head-shaved keeper. “Please, learn to be content here.”     “Sure,” Mordrick said bitterly. “It's easy for you to say.”     The keeper bowed and backed towards the sliding metal door. He and his attendants vanished and the door slammed shut.  

Sharp! Recent Character Designs by Razorbill1

James The Ox, Stock Broker Hailing from the UK, Razorbill1 is a comic artist and animator whose elegant style is perfectly adapted to those media.  In his character designs, he avoids fussy details, focusing on the essentials of expression and body language.  At the same time, however, it is remarkable how much he can suggest with just a few deft strokes.  Gerry the Flamingo, Anthro Version Gerry the Flamingo reminds us of Miami Vice's Sonny Crockett, but with a touch of 007.  Here is a character who keeps his cards (and his guns) close to his chest! Traders Town, James the Ox James in his natural habitat.  Razorbill well understands the anonymity and isolation of those who live and work in a great city.  Each is lost in their own private world, intent on matters which are a secret to all but themselves. *******   https://www.deviantart.com/razorbill1

Image
Elsie the Cow Comics No. 1 Hey Guys! It's Andrew the Bee again, back with some anthro cow fun !  This time we're taking a look at Elsie the Cow Comics for October-November 1949.  I already told you how Elsie was the mascot for the Borden Dairy Company and pretty much an American household name from the 1930s to the 1990s.  But did you know that Elsie was married and had a couple of kids ?  Well, it's true and you can read about them and their silly doings in this short-lived comic book that ran for three issues in 1949-1950.  You've got Elsie , of course, who is the level-headed smart one .  Then there's her husband, Elmer , who is a stupid blowhard .  The daughter, Beulah , is cute and likable , but maybe a bit gullible too.  Finally there's Beauregard , who is an amoral little brat !  Most of the stories in Elsie number one concern Elmer and his dumb backfiring schemes.  Comedy, after all, relies on misery , and nobody wants to see a
