Cry Havoc
Somehow we overlooked this one when it was a comic — but now it’s been collected together as a single graphic novel! It’s Star Trek: Deep Space Nine — The Dog of War, written by Mike Chen and illustrated by Angel Hernandez. “An extremely rare purebred corgi from Earth makes its way aboard Deep Space 9 when Quark cuts a deal to procure it for a high buyer. After all, a Ferengi without profit is no Ferengi at all! But Latinum the corgi comes with unexpected cargo that shakes Captain Benjamin Sisko to the core: A Borg component discovered by a crew sent to uncover Cardassian technology after the station’s reoccupation.” Check it out over at Penguin Random House.

Teardown (Xbox) Review
As the owner of the failing Löckelle Teardown Services, you thought you were getting a simple job to teardown a house to make way for a mall, only to be hired by a criminal investigator to gather evidence on the person who originally hired you, along with other dubious jobs coming from other customers. A surprisingly complex plot for a, sadly, mediocre title that shows its hand too early.
Fur & Loathing podcast concludes, expect more Furry True Crime reporting to come
https://x.com/NickyWoolf/status/1802698153272947183
Listen to Fur and Loathing here.
Here’s a wrap-up for the investigation of the Midwest Furfest 2014 chemical attack, by Nicky Woolf with help from Dogpatch Press. For the last episode, we recorded discussion of these points (although not all made the final cut…)
- Being a community under attack.
- The limits of the justice system, and how people can get away with crime, even if we know it.
- The need for community protection from inside.
- It can also take resources and reach we don’t have by partnership with outside help.
- Without public awareness and being fully informed, negligence can cause more harm.
- How different could things be if we had more transparency 10 years ago?
REVIEW: “Fur and Loathing is so fucking good.” – Podcast Promise
There are good and bad True Crime shows. Bad ones have sleazy stories with annoying hosts who giggle about suffering while milking it for views. But “Crime and Punishment” is the title of one of the greatest novels of all time. The good kind teaches about the justice system and the pursuit of resolution.
Fur and Loathing aimed to deliver original research with respect for the community. The producers of the show thought the great review at Podcast Promise really got everything they were trying to do:
I feel like most true crime is ultimately exploitative and antithetical to my politics and ethics.
But not all true crime is most true crime. Some true crime is anti-cop, anti-prison, and pro interrogating our carceral systems. Some true crime is made in partnership with its subjects, or the families. And some true crime, like Fur and Loathing, is made with deep reverence and contribution from maligned, largely disenfranchised communities.
I think Fur and Loathing is pretty much exactly what I want in true crime.
This approach will be followed for more Furry True Crime reporting to come… but we can’t talk about that yet. Stay tuned.
NEW WITNESS REPORT: “I stepped on a pile of what looked like fine white powder”
This tip recently came from a furry reader. This story of handling the crime scene certainly says something about the outcome…
Hello,
I just started watching the MFF 2014 coverage on the Fur and Loathing podcast. I have some first hand knowledge if this would help.
I literally stepped in (what I now understand to be) the cleared crime scene and I had no idea what it was at the time.
I walked up the stairwell after they let us back into the hotel after the all clear. The mess that was left was one floor under my room in a stairwell.
I stepped on a pile of what looked like fine white powder with small clear curved glass shards mixed in. From how much white powder and glass that was left I would guess that it would have filled a small glass mason jar. It looked almost like someone dumped baking soda and glass mixed together.
What blew my mind was that there was nothing in the hallway whatsoever to mark that this was evidence or anything of the sort. Plus that it was just left there. Not even a little yellow wet floor sign to indicate that a mess was on the floor.
It would not surprise me if some hotel cleaning staff swept it all into the trash the next day, while having no clue what it was.
I am sure that I was not the only person in the wee hours of the morning to step in it either as lots of us took the stairs to get to our rooms rather than waiting for the elevators.
That was a hell of a first furry con for me.
I don’t recall much more than that and in hindsight I wish I had gotten a picture of the mess. I was so tired that it did not cross my mind until I got home from the con. Thank you!
MORE READER REACTIONS (Spoilers)
Another reader wrote about the suspect Magnus Diridian, who has a news tag for background to this:
I had some discussions with family after they heard the last episode of Fur and Loathing (I got them hooked on the entire series). Magnus sounded very guilt ridden when questioned about the attack. I wonder if he had genuine remorse for making that Confederate fursuit. Or was just upset that it was received the way it was. Magnus’ behavior is the kind of stuff that a school shooter might be thinking: “I’m in pain, you’re hurting me, here is a message that is equivalent to what I’m feeling.”
Dogpatch Press replied:
Magnus has a past of being a chronic violent felon, alcohol abuse and guilt, and always wants to bury things but he can’t because he won’t admit his past. So he does a bunch of coping, contradiction and compartmentalizing. I think he just hates consequences, and he definitely wasn’t remorseful while bringing out the Confederate fursuit for years after 2017. Notice 2020 date in the photo.
Magnus’s stunts seemed reactive and trollish rather than supporting or organizing anything, apart from the Trump sign. So he didn’t have a manifesto. But the Confederate suit is a statement. He isn’t a sophisticated propagandist but we can call this political.
I wish the show could have gotten into threads that it didn’t. The fake Lemonade Coyote suit for example, made to piss people off by stealing from a dead guy. Or what was said by some witnesses who wouldn’t go on the record about what they knew. And allegations of violent crime that isn’t the stuff he was convicted for.
Magnus is an interesting guy in some ways. He was active for a long time with other interesting people. I don’t hate him so much as consider him messed up, but I don’t think we’ll ever have real justice about the attack, and don’t think he should be welcome at cons or in the fandom. He is currently active with nazifurs. That says a lot about what they do.
Why did the FBI’s Angelo Defeo fly from Chicago to Colorado to interview the well-known nazifur Foxler? And why did Magnus freak out when I asked him about Foxler in 2018, and admit knowing him for a long time (since before Foxler was grabbing notoriety?) That makes interesting questions about their association and how Foxler got charges dropped for his own crime case. So what did he have on Magnus?
I always wondered if there could have been others involved, but I don’t think there’s evidence of that, and Magnus is the only real suspect. He was known for using stink bombs in public. Why would he need someone else for an attack?
In 2018 I reported a witness from MFF 2014 saying that Magnus had an altercation with con staff there about running in the street in fursuit while drunk, and he got threatened with a ban. He was mad at staff, and that sounds like a motive.
The reader continued:
The show had one FBI person who had just learned of the event and the FOIA docs and even he was just as puzzled why this wasn’t taken seriously enough. ‘You’re missing something.’
Something missing could mean police hiding their own errors after mishandling the crime scene. Maybe the Rosemont police really didn’t want the FBI near. Chicago has a legendary history as one of the most corrupt places in the US. Corruption scandals have gotten federal oversight over local police departments before. We may never know more unless someone inside speaks.
OLD, FAKE NEWS
This review repeats misinformation that has plagued the fandom since the attack.
The claims can be killed by listening to the show, and they don’t even follow basic chemistry. Neoprene is rotted by chlorine. Latex chlorination is done by liquid, not powdered chlorine. That treatment isn’t activated with a device made to be smashed to mix 2 things into poison gas. The police ruled the attack deliberate from the beginning. Rumors about an accident were never valid.
FINAL THOUGHTS – How do we look at technical innocence?
A suspect was questioned many times and unable to clear himself. They couldn’t charge him, so police won’t stop him from going to events. It’s up to the community to beware.
Innocent until proven guilty is a relationship between citizen and government. It’s technical, but not the whole truth. Outside of courts, we use personal judgement about character every day, like when letting someone in your house, paying or employing someone, dating, voting, or letting someone care for dependent kids or animals.
“Technically innocent” applies to people like Casey Anthony, George Zimmerman, Kyle Rittenhouse, or OJ Simpson. Even when people like this are rejected, sometimes they grab for a kind of American anti-celebrity by capitalizing on notoriety. OJ tried to sell his “If I did it” book. George Zimmerman auctioned the gun he used to kill Trayvon Martin for a lot of money. Kyle Rittenhouse was supposed to be made a “hero” for politics (but is a failure with it). And of course America’s most successful anti-celebrity is currently trying to get back into the White House as a convicted felon.
Fur and Loathing may not be able to show justice is done, but hopefully can make you think a lot about what happens when it isn’t.

Werewolf: The Apocalypse - Earthblood Review
Werewolf: The Apocalypse - Earthblood may just be the best werewolf game of all time. But seriously, the smooth shifting between forms, the carnage, the exploration and stealth. Earthblood is a gem out of all the other wolf games available. I really hope the developers bring another one to the table, I feel this game was critiqued more harshly than it deserved, especially for really the first of its kind. It has a lot of room to improve, but the bones are good!

What Do Furries Do At Furry Conventions?
Introduction
Welcome, curious critters and seasoned furries alike! Have you ever wondered what happens behind the magical doors of a furry convention? Whether you’re a bright-eyed newbie or a convention veteran, this guide will whisk you through the fantastical world of furry conventions. So grab your tails and ears, and let’s dive into the fur-filled fun!
History and BackgroundFurry conventions have a rich and fascinating history that mirrors the growth and evolution of the furry fandom itself. The origins of these conventions can be traced back to the late 1980s, a time when the internet was in its infancy and like-minded fans relied on fanzines and snail mail to communicate.
The concept of furry conventions began with informal gatherings of fans who shared a love for anthropomorphic animals—creatures with human characteristics. These early meetups were often part of larger science fiction and comic book conventions, where furry enthusiasts would carve out their own space to discuss their interests. The seeds of the furry fandom were sown in these humble beginnings, with small groups coming together to share artwork, stories, and costumes.

The First Furry ConventionThe first official furry convention, ConFurence, was held in 1989 in Costa Mesa, California. Organized by Mark Merlino and Rod O’Riley, ConFurence I brought together about 65 attendees who were eager to celebrate their love for anthropomorphics. The convention featured panels, art shows, and social events, setting the blueprint for future furry conventions. ConFurence quickly became an annual event, growing in size and popularity each year.
The 1990s saw a significant expansion of the furry fandom and its conventions. As the internet became more accessible, it allowed fans from around the world to connect and organize more effectively. New conventions began to sprout up across the United States and eventually around the globe. Midwest FurFest, which started in 2000 in Chicago, and Anthrocon, which moved to Pittsburgh in 2006, are two of the largest and most well-known conventions that emerged during this period.
Furry conventions began to diversify in terms of themes and activities, catering to various interests within the furry community. Conventions also started to appear internationally, with events like Eurofurence in Germany and FurFright in the UK gaining traction. This global expansion highlighted the universal appeal of the furry fandom, transcending cultural and geographical boundaries.
Today, furry conventions are major events that attract thousands of attendees. They feature a wide array of activities, including panels, workshops, fursuit parades, gaming rooms, and social events. Conventions have also become important venues for charity, with many raising significant amounts of money for various causes. For instance, Anthrocon regularly supports local Pittsburgh charities, demonstrating the community’s commitment to philanthropy.

Technological InfluenceThe advent of social media and advanced technology has further revolutionized furry conventions. Virtual conventions have become a reality, especially in light of global events like the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing furries to connect and celebrate online. This blend of physical and virtual experiences ensures that the furry community remains vibrant and accessible to all its members.
From its modest beginnings in the late 1980s to the sprawling, multi-faceted events of today, the history of furry conventions is a testament to the creativity, passion, and dedication of the furry fandom. These gatherings have become a cornerstone of the community, offering a unique space where fans can express themselves, connect with others, and celebrate their shared love for anthropomorphic animals.
Ready to join the furry fun? First, you’ll need to register. Most conventions have online registration, making it as easy as a wag of a tail. Pro tip: Register early for the best rates and to snag a spot at popular events. As for packing, think comfort and creativity. Pack your fursuit (if you have one), comfy clothes, plenty of snacks, and don’t forget your chargers! It’s also handy to bring a small bag for all the fabulous merchandise you’ll collect.
Commissioning a fursuit has never been so easy!

Entertainment and PerformancesAt furry conventions, the entertainment and performances are as diverse and vibrant as the community itself. These events provide a platform for attendees to showcase their talents, enjoy various art forms, and experience the creativity of the furry fandom. Here’s a closer look at some of the highlights:
Dance Competitions: One of the most exhilarating events at any furry convention is the dance competition. These high-energy contests see furries busting out their best moves in elaborate fursuits. Participants often spend months perfecting their routines, combining intricate choreography with the expressive art of fursuiting. The atmosphere is electric, with the crowd cheering on their favorite dancers. Whether you’re participating or just watching, the dance competitions are a must-see spectacle.
Live Performances: The furry fandom is brimming with talented performers, and conventions offer a stage for all kinds of live acts. You might find:
- Musical Performances: From solo singers and bands to instrumentalists, the variety of musical talent is astounding. Genres range from pop and rock to electronic and orchestral, ensuring there’s something for everyone.
- Comedy Shows: Laughter is a universal language, and furry conventions are no exception. Comedians, both amateur and professional, take the stage to deliver stand-up routines, improv shows, and sketch comedy that often includes furry-themed humor.
Theatrical Productions: Some conventions feature fully staged plays or skits, often written and performed by members of the furry community. These productions can be whimsical, dramatic, or anything in between, showcasing the diverse storytelling talents within the fandom.
Karaoke and Talent Shows: If you’ve got a hidden talent or just love to sing, the karaoke and talent shows are the perfect venues. These events are open to all attendees and provide a supportive environment for people to shine. Highlights include:

- Talent Shows: These showcases offer a platform for a wide variety of talents. From magic tricks and dance routines to unique skills like puppetry or juggling, the talent shows are always full of surprises and delight.
Fursuit Dance Parties: No furry convention is complete without fursuit dance parties. These lively events invite everyone to hit the dance floor, whether you’re in a fursuit or not. With DJs spinning upbeat tracks and colorful lights setting the mood, these parties are all about having fun and letting loose. The sight of fursuiters dancing together is truly a joyous and unforgettable experience.
Live DJ Sets and Raves: For those who love electronic music and a high-energy atmosphere, live DJ sets and raves are a convention highlight. Professional and amateur DJs alike bring their best mixes, keeping the dance floor packed and the energy levels high. These events often run late into the night, creating an immersive and exciting environment for all attendees.
Drag Shows: Many furry conventions feature fabulous drag shows, blending the art of drag with furry culture. These performances are known for their creativity, dazzling costumes, and high entertainment value. Drag artists within the furry community bring their unique flair to the stage, creating shows that are both captivating and inclusive.
Open Mic and Jam Sessions: For those who prefer a more laid-back and spontaneous atmosphere, open mic nights and jam sessions are perfect. These events allow musicians, poets, and performers to take the stage without prior sign-ups, fostering an environment of creativity and camaraderie. Jam sessions, in particular, encourage collaboration among musicians, often leading to impromptu performances that are as memorable as they are unique.
Puppet Shows and Storytelling: Puppetry and storytelling have a special place in the furry community, and conventions often feature dedicated sessions for these art forms. Puppet shows can range from whimsical and funny to poignant and thought-provoking, while storytelling sessions offer a chance for writers and narrators to share their tales with an appreciative audience.

Fursuiting
What’s a furry convention without fursuits? These intricate, often handmade costumes are a staple of the furry community. Fursuiting is all about creativity and expression. There are different types of fursuits, from full-body suits to partials and everything in between. Remember, fursuiting etiquette is key – always ask before hugging a fursuiter and respect their space.
When the sun sets, the party begins! After-hours events and parties are a big part of the convention experience. Dance the night away at a themed party, join a sing-along, or relax with friends in a quieter setting. Remember to party responsibly and respect the con’s policies – after all, we want everyone to have a good time!

Bound for School — But Not for Long
Another graphic novel for young readers that we stumbled across: Clementine Fox and the Great Island Adventure, written and illustrated by Leigh Luna. “Clementine is supposed to be on her way to school… but why not go out for a day of adventure and exploration instead? She recruits her friends Nubbins Squirrel and Penelope Rabbit and heads to the beach, where Jesse Otter is preparing to take his giant Turtle, Annabella, to a mysterious local island. Clementine’s great-aunt Marnie lives there — far away from math tests and tutors — so Clementine and her friends hitch a ride to the island as stowaways. What could go wrong?” Check out the preview pages over at Books of Wonder.

The Drummer and the Dogs
This one has been sitting on our to-write-about list for a while — ’bout time we got around to it! The Dog Knight is a graphic novel written by Jeremy Whitley (well-known for their involvement with various My Little Pony comics) and illustrated by Bre Indigo. “Frankie knows who they are. They’re a drummer, they’re nonbinary, and they’re… the Dog Knight? One day Frankie is a relatively normal middle schooler, with relatively normal challenges, like finding the perfect outfit to wear during their drum solo during the upcoming band concert. The next, they save a friendly golden retriever from bullies and suddenly find themselves in a giant magical doghouse, with a funny looking helmet, talking to a group of dog superheroes called the Pawtheon about a job offer. If Frankie can prove that they possess the six dog virtues of loyalty, kindness, honesty, justice, stubbornness, and smell, they will be named the Dog Knight and be given the power to fight alongside the Pawtheon and save the world from the forces of chaos. Maybe there is more to Frankie than they thought?” Look for it now from the Feiwel & Friends imprint at MacMillan Publishers.

AVGN I-II Deluxe Review
It’s no secret that many of us, myself included, grew up watching The Angry Video Game Nerd on YouTube. Created by James Rolfe and Mike Matei, the series is still going strong and still has fans excited for the future, even though I will personally admit that his recent episodes weren’t the best. So, like all long-running franchises, you know there’ll be merchandise and, today, I want to focus on the video games, in particular ‘The Angry Video Game Nerd I-II Deluxe’, which combines both ‘The Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures’ and ‘The Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures 2: ASSimilation’ into one package, along with a third game ‘The Angry Video Game Nerd in Tower Of Torment: The Final Chapter’. Is this package worth your money or should you spend your money elsewhere (Couldn’t think of a good AVGN quote, sorry!)
Centaur of Attention
Centaurs is a manga series from Ablaze that we recently stumbled across, written and illustrated by Ryo Sumiyoshi. “An epic fantasy adventure set in an alternate medieval Japan, where humans co-exist with the mythic half man/half horse beasts known as centaurs, or “jinba”. The centaur race were long revered as deities in ancient times; however, with the advent of the sengoku (warring states) period, humans started to enslave and use them for military purposes due to their speed, stamina, and ability to communicate in human language. Centaurs living in the plains were rapidly subjugated; in contrast, large numbers of centaurs living deep in the mountains were still free due to their relative isolation.” See what happens when one of them is captured — and now he’s determined to escape back to his mountain home.

Turok 3: Shadows Of Oblivion Remastered Review
I have a little bit of a special history with the Turok games as the first two were some of the earliest games I reviewed when I used to work at an online radio station called The Cove Radio. I knew there was a third game from old Nintendo Power articles but, at the time, there was no way to play the game outside of buying a used copy for the N64 or emulating it. However, thanks to the wizards at NightDive Studios, the game has been fully remastered and is available on all next-gen consoles and, for the first time, PC. Was it worth the wait? Well, outside of a few issues I have, this is honestly my favorite of the trilogy*.
