I Hope So is a webcomic that follows the story of three lionesses who fight against the dangers of nature, and learn the value of found family. It is inspired by the independent animated series, My Pride, but is in no way affiliated with it. It is but a different take on the same concept.
Featuring an array of disabled and LGBT+ characters, the story is also inspired by various works of animal xenofiction, including Watership Down and The Animals of Farthing Wood.
The comic is available to read on ComicFury and Tumblr: https://linktr.ee/IHopeSo

Audio from Aqua Teen Hunger Force https://linktr.ee/IHopeSoGrey Wing in Hunting GroundsDetective Calico2021-09-02 | ...In the Blue - Animation meme - Warriors OCDetective Calico2021-07-17 | Was a feral dock cat who spent alot of her time fishing and on boats. She knew that using the humans for their boats would bring good fish and full bellies. So while keeping her distance from them they didn't seem to mind that she was there. One day a bad storm hit while she was out at sea and she was swept off the boat. She nearly drowned, and for days she was swimming, completely alone and terrified for her life on the open water. Several near-death experiences later, she finally washed up on shore, half-dead, waterlogged, starving, and dehydrated. She was luckily found by the Glaring of the Tide leader Oyster. When she woke up, she couldn't remember her name, so the clan opted to name her Seaflower, since that's where they found her. She rose through the ranks, became known for her kindness, grace, and fast learning. And in turn, earning everyone's trust.

Welcome to our critical analysis of the Youtube animated series “My Pride”, which is created and directed by tribbleofdoom. While the show has amassed a dedicated fanbase and received positive reviews, reservations about the show and how it represents individuals from the disabled and LGBT+ communities have been cropping up here and there for a while. Such concerns have never really garnered much attention, so both of us - a disabled woman and a gnc lesbian - decided to write up a critical review of the show’s episodes and couple it with an analysis that go over these issues. This analysis covers our thoughts on what we feel is the mishandling of some major themes, such as ableism, abuse and homophobia. If you’re looking for a glowing review of the series, this is NOT the video for you. Aside from praising such things a tad, this video also will not cover the animation or any of the technical aspects of the show. This is purely a video about the writing. Nothing more, nothing less.
This has been in the works for the past six months and we have made it with the intention of highlighting our concerns and the concerns of those who personally feel misrepresented and let down by this show. We also hope it proves educational and informative for those who wish to tackle these issues in their own projects.
This is NOT meant to be a personal attack on the creator in any way, shape or form, nor is it commentary on any controversy surrounding them. There are other outlets of information for that subject - particularly on Twitter - but this video is not one of them.
