HS!Twwcb and furry[edit]
Between the pages of this booklet, furry is represented by Antarctic Press' Genus, specially by Genus #20, the Special Extra Large Lesbian Unicorn Issue (part two of two).[1] A small excerpt on the page covering this issue proclaims the following about it and furries:
"Furries" are people with varying degrees of interests in anthropomorphics animals, real or imaginary, which may be expressed through erotic fantasy comics, sometimes of a highly specialized appeal... ...By the way, the "extra large" refers to the size of the issue, not the lesbian unicorns... Genus No. 20: Special Extra Large Lesbian Unicorn Issue, September 1996. Published by Venus Comics/Antarctic Press, San Antonio, Texas, 52-page b/w comic.
