Furrlough

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Furrlough is a furry comic book originally published by Antarctic Press and is continued by Radio Comix.

Originally, the content was oriented toward military oriented adventure, but as the title grew to be Radio's flagship title, the series became a general anthology.

At 160+ issues, it is the longest running furry comic book in the medium's history, as well as being the longest running anthology comic currently in print.

[edit] Main characters

Marble: Marble is a brown ferret. She is a caring individual and at first she only used her powers to live and observe endless mortal lives. In the story her mortal incarnation is the governess of Princess Reeba; this changes when she meets Yebbo. She is somewhat short and occasionally short-tempered.

Yebbo: Yebbo is a grey mouse. Unlike Marble, he prefers to use his powers at will and tends to bend the universe as he sees fit. He used his power to make Reeba a Heeba and his eternal companion. This is complicated by Marble, who believes that he is reckless and irresponsible.

Reeba: Reeba begins the story as a normal albino mouse princess of Burritzkoldt. She becomes caught up in the struggle between Yebbo, who wants to take her for his own, and Marble, who feels a duty to protect her. She becomes a Heeba herself - although mentally unstable, she is the most powerful of the three.
