Basically, a comic populated by anthropomorphic and zoomorphic characters, ranging from {{Talking Animal}}s to {{Funny Animal}}s (see FurryLens) to {{Beast M|an}}en (common in science fiction and fantasy, you get a bunch of humanoids that look like animals), with characters that look like cuter versions of escapees from the [[Literature/TheIslandOfDoctorMoreau island of Dr. Moreau]].

More commonly than not, Furry Comics have [[WorldOfMammals mammalian stars]], probably because it is easier to anthropomorphize something that's morphologically closer to humans, although high primates like gorillas and chimpanzees are often too close with UnfortunateImplications in racial themes. Still, many of this kind of comics rely on animal behaviour humour as an easy source of jokes.

Although FunnyAnimals are an easy source of humour (''Funny'' Animals, anyone?) and cuteness, it's an easy target for RuleThirtyFour (if not a consequence of it), to the point that fans and authors of innocent Furry Comics might get really offended about the sole ''mention'' of it.

'''Disclaimer''': Despite the name, Furry Comics don't necessarily have to be remotely involved with the UsefulNotes/FurryFandom ([[PopularWithFurries Popularity]], withstanding). These are just comics that star anthropomorphic animals. The same goes for FurryWebcomics.

[[index]]
* ''ComicBook/TheAdventuresOfCaptainJack''
* ''ComicBook/AlbedoErmaFelnaEDF''
** its sequel ''ComicBook/AlbedoBirthright''.
* ''[[http://manga.animea.net/apocalypse-meow.html Apocalypse Meow]]'' aka ''Manga/CatShitOne'': Covers UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar in [[WarIsHell all its horror]] but replaces the various sides with {{Talking Animal}}s, the species apparently being selected based on common stereotypes. Cat Shit One is a special ops unit of American GI rabbits who have to carry out various strategic objectives in the steaming jungles of 'nam. An AnimatedAdaptation is being planned with the setting updated so that it takes place in the UsefulNotes/GulfWar.
* ''ComicBook/AssociatedStudentBodies'': Similar in format to ''Circles'' below, ASB deals with a young college lion inadvertently shacked up in the campus' gay-oriented dorm room, and his issues with dealing with all of the crazy characters he finds there as well as the conflict between his strict religious upbringing (and those of his family) and his budding homosexuality. A bit more sex than ''Circles'', but it's still considered one of the best comics in the fandom to deal with real issues with the gay community.
* ''ComicBook/TheAstoundingWolfMan'': A 25 issue series written by Creator/RobertKirkman and published by Creator/ImageComics. [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Adventures of a werewolf superhero.]]
* ''ComicBook/TheAutumnlandsToothAndClaw'': A sprawling fantasy epic.
* ''ComicBook/BadRubber'': A furry parody of ''Film/BladeRunner''.
* ''Manga/{{Beastars}}'': A manga, similar in premise to ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}'', which explores the many conflicts between predator and prey with the added tumult of high school drama. Has a well-known AnimatedAdaptation by [[Creator/RoughDraftStudios Orange]].
** ''Manga/BeastComplex'': A sister series/source to ''Beastars'', an anthology set in the same setting and often the same characters as the other manga.
* ''Webcomic/BeyondTheWesternDeep'': A ''Literature/{{Redwall}}'' inspired medieval series with GrayAndGrayMorality.
* ''ComicBook/BiancaLittleLostLamb''
* ''ComicBook/TheBlackbloodAlliance'': A pack of dire wolves must fend off a pride of saber-toothed cats.
* ''ComicBook/{{Blacksad}}'': A French-Spanish comic book about an American cat named John Blacksad who is a PrivateInvestigator in TheFifties.
* ''ComicBook/CaptainCarrotAndHisAmazingZooCrew'': AnimalSuperhero book by Creator/DCComics.
* ''ComicBook/{{Circles}}'': A gay-themed slice-of-life comic book. WordOfGod has said that it is a case of Purely Aesthetic Species. Oddly notable for the ads for porn in the back cover, a former pornographer as the main artist, being distributed by a company known for porn, but thankfully not actually being porn. There is plenty of fanservice, however. Finished in 2015.
* ''ComicBook/{{Cruelty}}'': A comic by Rukis about a wolfdog and his fennec best friend.
* ''ComicBook/DogHouse'': A short, [[FanDisservice somewhat]] erotic story about the romance between a human girl and her "pet", an anthropomorphic dog, from the same creator of ''ComicBook/AlbedoErmaFelnaEDF''.[[/index]]
* ''[[http://www.coyotepuck.dragoncity.net/dracula/index.php Dracula]]'' is a straight adaptation of, well, ''Literature/{{Dracula}}''. The furry aspects are only in the artwork, while the plot follows the original rather faithfully -- which sometimes causes interesting questions like why a coyote would need to shave.[[index]]
* The various comics of ''Webcomic/TheDynamiteTwinsAndFriends'', including:
** ''[[ComicBook/TheDynamiteTwinsBuckWildBash Buck Wild Bash]]''
** ''[[ComicBook/TheDynamiteTwinsLostVegas Lost Vegas]]''
** ''[[ComicBook/TheDynamiteTwinsMyHouseIsYourHouse My House is Your House]]''
* ''ComicBook/{{Extinctioners}}'': Another superhero-based anthropomorphic comic, this one taking a more serious approach than ''Supermegatopia'' below. There are several portfolios that creator Shawntae Howard has pumped out, including many "Women of Extinctioners" pinups, three tutorials demonstrating how he draws the species in his comics, and modifying existing superhero action figures to create toys of his characters.
* ''ComicBook/FritzTheCat'': The origins of funny animal fandom derive from this and earlier comics by Creator/RobertCrumb.
* ''Literature/GeronimoStilton'': Both the original series and its SpinOff featuring the Thea Sisters now have graphic novels.
* ''ComicBook/{{Grandville}}'': A badger detective and his mouse partner solve crime in a {{Steampunk}} era.
* ''Manhwa/TheGreatCatsby''
* ''ComicBook/GuardiansLaurenMakenaAndShaiAshlin'' is a comic about wild cats gifted with elemental powers, using them to defend the world and overthrow the resident EvilOverlord. A perfect example of PantheraAwesome and SceneryPorn, but sadly, is not updated often.

* ''ComicBook/HeathenCity''
* ''ComicBook/HeroCats''

* ''[[http://www.spooo.com/ Spooo Presents]]'': An erotic anthology mostly based around gay stories. The two biggest ongoing comics featured in the title are "Coyote River", an AffectionateParody of sorts to ''Film/BrokebackMountain'' (though it still deals with the same serious issues that the movie did), and "Rocketship Rodents", an AffectionateParody of Buck Rogers with its own spin-off, a parody of (of all things) ''Series/DoctorWho''. [[WordOfGod The Author's notes]] indicate that the similarity between ''Coyote River'' and ''Brokeback Mountain'' is pure coincidence, as he wasn't aware of it until people compared the first issue to the movie. Also, he seems not to have seen the movie until some time after the release of the ''second'' issue.[[index]]
* ''ComicBook/SuperDinosaur'': More of a 'Scaly Comic' really. Stars SD, an intelligent T-Rex who wears a robotic battle harness. Aimed at kids, but [[PeripheryDemographic readers of older ages like it too]].
