Nancy Beiman’s New Comic, FurBabies

With great glee and sincere congratulations, I’m announcing my friend, Nancy Beiman’s newly syndicated online comic strip, “FurBabies.” I have known Nancy for over 40 years. She is an exceptional animator, illustrator and author who has worked for Disney and Warner Brothers, has authored several books on the art of animation and now retired, has taught storyboarding for many years. “Fur Babies” is a sweet story about a young girl who can communicate with her four pets – a secret skill she shares with no one. FurBabies has just been launched on Go Comics through Universal Press Syndicate – which also syndicates For Better or for Worse, now in reruns. Let us know what you think of Nancy’s new strip!
