The News Teams LinusFan303 has a new review on the front page of AnimeSuperhero.com:
"Many comic strips have taken the idea of the human relationship with animals and expressed them in humorous, charming, introspective ways. There’s Garfield, Red and Rover, and even Phoebe and Her Unicorn to name a few.
Furbabies is a newer comic strip by Nancy Beiman that began being published on GoComics in June of 2023. Beiman brings her skills as a professor of animation and her long-time career as an animator who worked on Disney movies, Warner Bros., and even Peanuts specials to the comic strip world.
GoComics is a website that’s owned by major newspaper syndicator Andrews McMeel, which syndicates hundreds of comics to newspapers such as Peanuts, Garfield, Red and Rover , to name a few. GoComics site has been around for since 2005 as a place for readers to read those hundreds of strips, some like Furbabies, being online exclusives. It’s a site that’s free (with ads) or can be subscribed to for ad free and other perks.
The stories are about a 9-year-old girl named Kate Buffet who has her own style and approach to things. She lives in an apartment with her parents, who are working long hours meaning, she doesn’t see them much. That does give the comic strip a focus on her without much parental involvement much like Peanuts did. She also can communicate with animals. This is a help to her being an only child because she has pets who are the “Furbabies” of the title. The pets are a blended family of their own. "
