very, very good work with moods, expressions, body positions and body language.

ten and a half years of comic and you are still improving a lot and sure it shows. . .
my compliments.

Thanks man! I am SO glad I kept this up.

Talk about blind prejudice.

There we have it.

Oh dear another kid brainwashed by poor parenting.

What was the Klink

He has two more beer bottles down to his left.

I kinda figured as much with Kev; I had a feeling that he doesn't really undestand what he's actually saying...

(although I'm a little curious as to what their reactions are to Chucky's little "confession" at the end if you can call it that... unless 14 is "normal"/"OK" in that world (I mean, I'm personally weirded out by it but I'm purely looking at it from my perspective))

He doesn't. He's been fed the fear.

It's not a confession, it's more like he's trying to explain why he wants to have a girlfriend. He's using his experience with Terry to say that he's had a taste of what it's like to be with someone. Especially since Kev is poopooing both of their desires to find girlfriends.

14 isn't a bad age for one's first time in their world, fairly typical.

"And she gave me a blowjob. It was wonderful!"
Ahhh, poetry out of the mouths of babes...

Drunken skunk rage incoming

Yeah he's kinda drinking alone there isn't he?

Hmmmm interesting. I though he was scared of her because she was bigger than him.

_{In that pic, Chucky's smile because Terry's paw's on his butt}.

I had to go back and read through Kev's early interactions, I haven't looked at those pages in a long time. Kev simply says Nimsha is scary, Merry suggests it's 'littlefur' syndrome. So it's not until now that he reveals why he's scared of her. Unless I wrote something somewhere else, which is entirely possible.

I think they're both smiling for that reason.

Well...that Escalated Quickly.

Kev pushes the wrong buttons without knowing it.

If you don't mind I would like to add another analysis of mine.

I'm gonna present a purely hypothetical scenario wherein Kevin would presumably actually have his facts straight as opposed to simply mirroring in verbal regurgitation the rhetoric he has absorbed from others.

My theory is that during the era of your origin backstory, specifically during the years you have mentioned when humanity slowly started to died off as a result of a virus causing widespread/global human sterility, the partially evolved mammals who slowly took/usurped their dominant place in the world would have more than probably had trouble imprinting on or adapting/adopting even a basic understanding of mankind's more classically liberal/individualist nature, their ideals or the general traditional idea of freedom and self worth in the relatively very short generational time period that they were given as humans began to become extinct.

Hence consequentially I would imagine that because of this, the fact that these newly evolving lifeforms of that specific time period would have likely have had difficulty self evolving or even comprehending (emotionally or psychologically) a basic understanding of these concepts beyond the boundaries of their mere survival and progenitive longevity/reproductive instincts of which their own kind and all other distinctly non-human (mammalian or otherwise) life forms on this planet have until roughly that point been genetically bound to, they would likely have adopted a more communistic like system as a means to their survival in the interim generations between humanity's demise and the rise of the first modern all furry democratic/republican civilizations.

I don't know or presume to know for certain what may have happened but if the first evolved furries lacked any kind of basic emotional strengths beyond basic instincts then it would have been rational to presume a more mutually reliant hive minded and/or filial pack like tribal societies would have been the first to develop among them.

If the "Russia" of this reality and era has ironically become (once again) and/or is actually somewhat communistic while still holding on to at least some of those collectivist (power of the group overruling the significance of the individual) virtues then under my hypothesis it would be reasonable to presume that that in your presented portrayal of a modern furry "Russia" (in this world) their civilization and it's denizens are living in a substantially regressed or socially under evolved society, at least from the perspective of modern democratic republican/western civics anyway.



There's a lot more I'd like to add to this but I'm too fatigued for right now, so I'm gonna try and save it for tomorrow, maybe later this weekend or early next week.

On a final note, I'm so glad I deliberately waited a whole month to read anything new here, it gave me two whole pages to catch up on and enjoy! I can tell I'm gonna enjoy where this is heading, I can't wait fore the next page now! I really hope it's out before the 1st of January.

That's quite the deep analysis, probably way more thought than I've ever put into it. I'm not good at world building, so I'm just parodying our own. Our civilization had very little overlap with the furries of Chucky's world. After humans, rats and mice were the next to build a civilization and there was just enough overlap that geographic names carried through. Chucky's world is a very distant sequel(about 50,000 years) to Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH. Over the millennia, various other groups of animals became more intelligent as a result of NIMH's past experiments. Not all species developed at the same speed, and some not at all. Civilizations rose and fell. The intelligent rat society had a Roman Empire type fall. Chucky's world would have looked like a Redwall book for a very long time, with species tribalism and collectives of some species coming together to carve out an organized existence.

Of course, if any of this really happened, these intelligent furries would speak a language and have a culture completely alien to us. There are a few comic artists out there who can pull that kind of stuff off, but not me. So here is mine, a total parody of the world we live in now with a few little things thrown in there to make it seem like I invented a new world.

I always figured that the premise for the setting of this story was a post-human world after homo sapiens had gone (extinct?), but I didn't know there was a tie in with the Rats of NIMH. That's a very imaginative idea. I like it.

That's what got me into furry and I thought it a fitting tie-in. I'm not sure how I'd reference it the story. But my idea is that the biologists of their world where able to trace a rapid change in anthro DNA, especially those of rats and mice, very close to our current time period.

I could imagine furry archeologists digging up evidence of homo sapiens in ancient ruins, or even in foundations of current cities built over ancient human cities. Perhaps one of the archeological digs could be that of the National Institute of Mental Health itself, or even the Fitzgibbon farm or Thorn Valley.

The furry archeologists certainly know there was an intelligent primate society that lasted for many millennia. Although most of our structures would have eroded and decomposed into oblivion, our fossil record would be everywhere considering the number of us there are and no doubt will be in the coming centuries.

Chucky's society takes place around 50,000 years from now. If there is any truth to the show 'Life After People', the forces of nature will erase or cover most of our structures within' 10,000 years.

Even the pyramids would be pretty much unrecognizable after that much time.

There will still be a layer of plastic buried deep in several places. It'll be a degraded form, having been subjected to the ravages of time and the environment (that stupid PSA is wrong; plastic bottles do not last "forever" in a landfill), but it'll be noticeable. Just dig down deep enough and you'll find all that poly-carbon, or whatever it's called, sitting right there, with no natural explanation for it. Might give the first civilization that figures it out a boost once they realize how it can be used.

Then again, I'd probably have to check with some more science-minded people I know to be sure. 50,000 years is a long time, and geology is always changing. Pretty sure the plastics wouldn't be in their original form by then though. I'd be very surprised if anything plastic managed to keep its form that long!

Yes, they would absolutely find layers of certain synthetic materials in some form or another. Even if plastics significantly decay, Chucky's modern archeologists and geologists would find it among all the human skeletons and put two and two together.

Most structures built beyond 5000 years ago weren't built to last, except for notable stone structures like Stonehenge, the Easter Island heads, and the pyramids in Egypt and the Americas. Will such structures still stand 50,000 years from now? I'd hazard a guess that something of them would still remain, though more greatly eroded. If such structures end up buried, they would stand an even better chance since they would be protected from weather.

As for modern structures, I guess it would depend. I doubt that nothing much of wooden houses in suburban neighborhoods would last, but their concrete foundations and basements could possibly last, depending on how the ground changed around them. Steel structures like skyscrapers would probably rust away, but I could imagine all that tempered glass would endure a long time. The same would go for motor vehicles. What about all those tires? I wonder how long vulcanized rubber would last. Did you know that all the tires were retrieved from Columbia after the STS-107 accident?

Even if cars and their windows and tires degraded, the sheer number of them that eventually end up in dumps (unless recycled) would suggest that something of them would survive a long time.

There are many other synthetic materials laying around too that did not even exist a few hundred years ago that do not seem to decay much. How much of this would last 50,000 years? I cannot say for certain, but I would guess more than what was build 50,000 years ago. Hopefully, they don't dig up anything dangerous, like what is buried in the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository.

That's a good point about the dangerous stuff, because I'm pretty sure that will still be there.

damn that be my fantasy come true sex at 14... makes me envy teens in one state because if i remember right one state had age of consent at 14 witch i kinda find hard to believe but too lazy and keep forgetting to look up if its true though it makes me wish i live there my whole life.... is it bad i wanted to get laid at that age??

i can kinda relate to Kevin here too though i listen to more than one source of info when it come to politics but i don't watch the news because i don't trust it

That's hot man. Funny as it may seem, I was hardly interested at all when I was 14. That stuff hit me all at once when I turned 15 though. I don't think age of consent matters if you and your partner are both under 18. Almost everyone I grew up with had sex well under 18, a number of them at 13 and 14.

wow luky ppeps so long as noone got pregers

Weirdly, I had a very similar experience. One day, one of the guys down the hallway gathers us to watch a movie he's really serious about... So we all watched Red Dawn, laughing at the unintentional comedy that is, whilst our friend is looking more and more concerned that we weren't taking the communist threat seriously. That's the day I learned that no matter how intelligent someone is, they can still have weird blinders on some subjects. All of us would take Quantum Mechanics the next year, and one of us would be afraid of the Red Menace.

Maybe he should have feared me. If you cut me, I bleed pinko. I think I was a bit less idealistic but also a lot less realistic back then; communism sounded rather nice.

That's funny man. That was a great movie. I remember it seemed so realistic when I was younger, but watching it later on it's just so goofy. I don't think I had any friends that were that bad, in fact, I remember very few political discussions when I was in college. But I couldn't have cared less at that time either.

What is the age line between these three? The bun and Fox acts like they're 10 and Chucky like he is 20 something. I didn't expect to see such young ones in a college campus!

They're all 16, just different maturity levels. I distinctly remember huge differences in maturity, physical and mental, among my peers at their age. Most kids start college at around 16 or 17 in their world.

I'll be completely honest here, communist government suck ass. Though if someone comes from a communist country and doesn't support that government they shouldn't be judged.

EDIT: Wow almost forgot, Yay update!

I totally agree, but I find it tedious to listen to Neanderthal paranoid rantings about the Red Menance.

Though I must have missed something. I had assumed that communist countries are extinct in Chucky's time and that Nimsha's Siberia was much like Russia today: a pseudo-democracy run by an autocrat.

Somebody once pointed out that oppression does not come from the right or the left, it moves from top to bottom. There are businesses who love to toot their horn about liberty and freedom while at the same time treating their employees like shit. And if the business is big and powerful enough, their customers too.

Heh. Joey's worried about not too much. Communism simply doesn't work, and tends to collapse after a while from its own dead weight. Ignoring the Laws of Economics generally doesn't work any better than ignoring the Laws of Physics.
