Well, that's just it. All the things that cum-er-come
to mind might be nice, but you still need story,
otherwise, you have the (forgive me here, but) the
Furry equivalent of a bad porno flick.
These Characters are much better than that.
Good story takes time, and gnashing ideas.
Too many folks I run into (including some with not-bad
reputations as Furry authors), could not carry a story
in a bucket with three handles on it.
Too much of what passes for "content" at Radio and
other places has too little *story* to hold my
interest, which is why I don't go in for 98% of what's
out there as a "Furry comic".
Now before people start tossing rotten eggs at me
again, let me say that *with the proper treatment*
I think (a) crossover book(s) with these characters
could be a watershed work in so many ways.
But to make it work to full potential, you'll need a
story on a Par with the one say, in ASB, for example.
The bar has been raised, and as much fun as the limbo
is, I don't think anyone is going to be able to shimmy
underneath it again by a whole lot.
