Roz Gibson,
Jack Salem's first printed appearance was in
Rowrbrazzle in 1987, although he was also featured in numerous unpublished stories and artwork done by Gibson, dating back to 1979. A serial killer and rapist, Salem was one of the first outright evil furry characters. He is a Russian sable/ domestic cat hybrid, mostly sable, with midnight-black fur and a small cream-colored patch on the lower jaw and throat. He also wears glasses. His preferred weapon is a Colt Python .357 gun, but he is equally dangerous with his own teeth and claws. He lives in a future Earth with a small human population and a larger population of nonhuman (mammal, bird, reptile & insect) constructs. He has been published in
Furrlough and
Yarf, as well as a number of self-published books available directly from Roz Gibson or from
Second Ed.
