Skunk (comic)

:''This article is about the comic. For the [[species]], see '''[[skunk]]'''.''

'''Skunk''' is a black and white one-shot comic published by [[MU Press]] in 1993, which featured satirical jabs at the fandom (the title itself was short for the anti-furry slur, "[[skunkfucker]]"). It was edited by [[Chuck Melville]] and featured strips by [[Donna Barr]], [[Roberta Gregory]], [[Chuck Melville]], and [[Colin Upton]], with a cover by artist [[Tom Verre]] and back cover by [[Marc Schirmeister]].

The release of the comic drew criticism as it was penned in the same satirical vein as [[Shawn Keller]]'s ''[[Horrifying Look at the Furries]]''. One particular strip that was criticized was Colin Upton's "The Fur Flies To France", concerning the roman a clef misadventures of a boorish American comic artist called "the Goat" - a barely disguised [[anthropomorphic]] version of [[Jim Groat]] - who acts like an idiot abroad and runs into trouble with French customs.
