Charley Parker's Argon Zark! is smartly-drawn and pretty darned funny to boot. The story chronicles the exploits of a dimension-hopping cybergeek who seems to have a knack for crossing paths with big, nasty...well, see for yourself. I ran across this site because of a debate some friends of mine were having regarding what was the first web comic. The debate rages on as to who can finally lay claim to the honor - but that's ok, I think Wonder 'Zoi can safely claim to be the first web-based comic about a borzoi who battles aliens using superpowers derived from an enchanted bone. I wonder if there's a prize for that...

A furry-animal comics and stories web site. They've got stories, some terrific art and a huge links page to online "furry"comics. Some sites linked out of this one contain material not suited for children.

Dark Horse's titles are widely varied, from Frank Miller's gritty Sin City to Myriad Star Wars and other film- and TV-based titles to several manga imports from Japan.

You know, I'm thirty-seven years old and I still think Batman is cool. And I'm not afraid to say it! I'm comfortable with that. It's like, being in touch with your feminine side, you know?

The official web site of Joseph Michael Linsner, best known for his work featuring that sultry goddess, Dawn. Linsner is a tremendously talented artist. His impact on modern comics has been profound, and his work challenges you to look past the glossy surface (where many of his imitators find their limits) to discover a nuanced web of ideas, beliefs, emotions and symbols that will have a different meaning for each viewer depending on their own experiences. Linsner's work is suited for mature audiences.

Even if you don't like "furry-animal comics" you should check out this site. Online home of "Weasel Boy," an insane send-up of Batman set in the "Kiwi capital of the world". (Contains some material that may not be suitable for children.)

This is a west-coast based comix shop.

I strongly encourage you to seek out a local comic book specialty retailer first, because they might have the same merchandise, or they can get it for you. Additionally, you won't pay the shipping charges to your local retailer, and if they have it in stock you get the immediate gratification of having your cool stuff the very same day. Purchasing from your local retailer keeps your dollars local, which ultimately is good for you. And you help keep these stores open, which is really important because many very good comics will never get to the public any other way.

• That said, if you don't have a local comic book shop, go check these guys out. They're very prompt with shipping and have a good search engine. They don't have as many small titles as I would like to see but they still have a very large selection of titles and other merchandise.

If you're in the Ann Arbor area, I highly recommend this comics shop. They're on South Main Street, downtown. These guys rock!

Cool Borzoi and Dog-related Sites:

It's the AKC, need I say more?

European borzoi web site, originating from Germany. Information on european borzoi, kennels, photohistories of the breed, and the new FCI borzoi standard - a very interesting read...this link points to a primarily English-language version of the site.

This kennel provided inspiration for many of the characters in Wonder 'Zoi.

Information on Borzoi in the United States, including the official breed standard, national club activities, and breed rescue efforts.

A breed club in Sweden. And NO, the Swedish dogs don't "bork" so don't ask.
