Extremely cool! I wonder how much it would be to get other furry mags started

Re: new furry magazine just dropped
I actually gave that question some thought after a recent obsession with researching 1980s furry zines. It'd take a lot of effort in order to do a good job, but it'd be a lot fun to contribute.StarlightNecromancer wrote: Sun Jul 27, 2025 5:51 am Extremely cool!

Re: new furry magazine just dropped
Well I made a purchase.
Real OGs would know that I used to make something similar way, way, way back in the day, so I'm hella happy to see that publishing independent zines is still a thing in the fandom.

Oh Pent Up Pup right on the second cover. I saw them perform live recently with a few local furry and non-furry musicians

Re: new furry magazine just dropped
I ordered a physical copy of this, since I prefer reading things like this on a not-screen. Glad to see there's a dedicated furry magazine.

Re: new furry magazine just dropped
I work for an erotic zine called Dragon's Hoard and there have been other erotic zines, but this is the first time I've seen one that's fully SFW! Really a cool idea, I'll have to check it out!!
EDIT: Oh, wait, I see it's 18+ haha. I just assumed it was SFW bc it was posted here. Still interested!

Re: new furry magazine just dropped
This was great! I picked up #2 and #3 digitally (I can't even imagine what the tariffs are doing to shipping to the US) and loved them. Wolfears, I really vibed with what you said about furry being inherently queer, and how it's more nebulous that one prescribed idea of "furry."
Good stuff, I can't wait for the next issue.
