[Link] Unlike Minerva [Date] 2/3/00 [Comments] 
I haven't been able to decide if the gimmic behind this comic is for everyone. Even though I find it difficult to read sometimes, I really like it a lot, and have gotten endless hours of fun following all the links from this comic. The idea has been stated as "one comic, many artists." A creative writer, firm in his belief that he has insufficient artistic talent, has gotten a whole slew of friends to take turns drawing his strip for him. The story line is a strange combination of "Waiting For Godot" and "The Muppet Show", a fully thought out "furry" universe in which five characters inhabit the vaudeville "Minerva Theater". This solid framework has attracted a wide variety of guest artists, who switch in on a weekly to daily basis. This jumpiness can make it a little hard to follow at times. However, I enjoy seeing how each artist interprets the characters. It is also fun to follow the links to the artists' pages and learn more about them, from the astonishing Rina Cat to the charming Naraxa. Speaking of which, I have to applaud the webmaster of this site; there are daily and weekly pages available through the archives, and each one has thumbnails for the current artist's rendition of the five main characters.
