Carry On: It's All About The Hyenas

Carry On is a long-running, Ursa Major award-winning webcomic by Kathy Garrison Kellogg, which originally began as a slice-of-life-style spinoff of the webcomic 21st Century Fox. The main characters are Kathy Grrsn, an anthopomorphic spotted hyena, her sister Sandy, and their immediate family. Other characters include Kathy's newspaper-office co-workers, and, since 2011, the various inhabitants of the African nation of Rackenroon, including the officers of the Rackenroon Hyena Brigade.

In 2011, a new plot arc begin, in which a lieutenant of the Rackenroon Hyena Brigade unexpectedly arrives at Kathy's birthday party and announces that Kathy has been designated heir to the throne of the Duchy of Rackenroon, a small but influential African nation ruled by the hyenas. Since Fred, the lieutenant, was, at birth, promised in marriage to the heir of the duchy, whoever the heir might be, this also means that he is now Kathy's fiance. The ramifications of this relationship, and the adventure of a long voyage through Africa to Kiyanti, the capital city of Rackenroon, have been unfolding ever since. Fred Searching

The Search Form

You may use either the text-search box, or the character-appearance search buttons/menus separately, or combine them for a more restrictive search. Note that you can boolean-join up to four character searches with "AND" or "OR". In the middle, you have the special choice of ) AND (, which lets you group pairs of choices as (1 OR 2) AND (3 OR 4), overriding the usual precedence that AND takes over OR. This is usually what you want, so unless you are very sure of what you are doing, prefer ) AND ( over regular AND.

The name "OTHER" is coded in the database as an actual character name, and is used for very minor characters who are hard to otherwise identify, as well as incidental people in the background, so be careful of possible unexpected results when searching "OTHER". Select "Help" from the top menu for more search tips.
