It's a spin-off of the now-completed agirlandherfed.com web comic, which was *also* very good (lots and lots of funnies). Because it's a spin-off, I wrote a backgrounder at www.kithrup.com/~sef/DigitalDivideBackground.txt, which hopefully explains enough to jump into it.

I did flipbooks for all of the Animorphs covers I did, but they appeared in black and white and very small, so I am posting them here so you can see them large and in color. No AI here--just Elastic Reality and painting. You can buy a signed print of this cover here:

"The Human's world ends soon," said the cat.
"Again?" said the dog.
"They are fond of endings and beginnings. Even if nothing changes."
The dog whined.
"Same procedure as last year?" said the cat.
"Please."
The cat lay on the dog's head and purred, muffling the fireworks.
