Question for the furs that read this journal...

On Friday, at one point, I wound up in one of the local comic stores that I don't generally frequent simply because there are places where I prefer to take my business first for some reason or another. Well, this place carries a couple of Furry comics (Furrlough, Usagi Yojimbo, and I think Shanda and/or Extinctioners), but the owner would like to expand his selection of Furry comics. He asked me while I was in there, simply because he knows I'm a Fur)

However, his dilemma is that of every comic book store owner who's wanted to carry Furry stuff... while he doesn't mind special-ordering the more yiffy stuff (Genus, for example), he'd like to get more books that he can actually put on the shelf without getting any shit from customers over it.

I did some thinking when he asked me, and for the life of me I couldn't really come up with much. I said I thought that Katmandu might be safe, and I mentioned that at some point possibly later this year Jim Hardiman might be coming out with Caterwaul. At the time, I'd forgotten that a new Albedo series is coming out as well, but I honestly don't know how that would go, content-wise.

So can anyone offer any suggestions I can pass along to the guy before I start doing my own digging?

It's not 100% furry, but if he doesn't carry Gold Digger, he should. It's probably consistently the best comic book I've ever read, to be honest.

He gets Gold Digger, yeah.
