Omaha the Cat Dancer and Hepcats come to mind immediately, but the field kind of narrows after that. This one is about a family of foxes who are living in a normal neighborhood. No one knows who they are or why they got there, but they&#8217;re the only family of foxes living in the U.S. Makes me wonder how there&#8217;s ever going to be another family of foxes, but I digress. The story in this one is just the youngest son wandering around imagining things, which isn&#8217;t as bad as it sounds. At least it&#8217;s a different idea, sort of. His art has improved over the years (I got a copy of an older book of his at SPACE too), but there are still a few side looks at things that are a bit off. He needs to work on his lettering too. If you&#8217;re going to spend that much time on the art (and some of the cross hatching tells me that he spent a long time on it), then why rush the lettering? Overall, not a bad book. I&#8217;m curious to see where it&#8217;s going, but I probably won&#8217;t order any more unless I see him at another con. Go to his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.catchforusthefoxes.com\/\">website<\/a> to see what&#8217;s up, <a href=\"mailto:info@catchforusthefoxes.com\">e-mail<\/a> him, or just go ahead and send him a couple of dollars at: 3800 Woodmere Way Bloomington, IN 4740 (I&#8217;m guessing that he forgot a number here, I&#8217;ll find out what it is when I can).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/foxesandgrapes12.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"282\" height=\"429\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Foxes and Grapes #1 I&#8217;ve read and liked a few anthropmorphic comics in my day.
