Last place I thought I'd see Xanadu
4 months ago
General
So I recently got interested in SJ Games/GURPS again after years away from it -- they had some great historical sourcebooks -- and I found that they list the bibliographies for many of their books online.
I was curious. I looked at the one for their 4th Ed. Fantasy sourcebook -- and lo and behold, check out that one last title mentioned in the section covering comics.

Yes. They mentioned Vicky Wyman's fantasy anthro comic 'Xanadu' there. Consider my flabber thoroughly gasted. I would have sworn that outside of a tiny handful of aging fur fans nobody even knew her Xanadu existed, let alone what it was! Pity we never got a GURPS Xanadu; it would've been entertaining to see official stats for characters like Empress Alicia, Kinomon the Golden Dragon, and Fatima the vixen. I mean, they did worldbooks for Conan, the Horseclans, Witch World, Riverworld, Planet Krishna, and Jack Vance's Tschai/Planet of Adventure. THey even did one for Bunnies and Burrows!
Would a Xanadu worldbook really have been unusual?

Though while Mage is more rarely seen then it should be, it's not quite as obscure as Xanadu.
