Urban Animal

Meet Joe Gomez. He’s got high school on lock – good grades, a cool band, and girls digging his vibe. But just when he’s got the world figured out, he goes and turns into a saber-toothed tiger. A shape-shifting nature spirit known as a Chimera, to be specific. Now Joe needs every single one of his new powers to help save the human race – whether he wants to or not.

It's official now. John Amor announced on Facebook on December 2, 2022 that the fifth season of Urban Animal is going to be its final season. There have been no announcements about whether there will be any follow-on or spin-off comics in the future.

Urban Animal is the creation of Justin Jordan and John Amor, with lettering by Micah Myers and editing by Ethan LeBlanc or Tyler Beckett. Dave Tran assisted with coloring for several of the episodes during the first two seasons.

Justin Jordan writes the scripts for Urban Animal. Justin broke into comics with the Image series The Strange Talent of Luther Strode. Since then he has gone on to work for nearly every major comics publisher. He is currently writing Curse of Brimstone and Sideways at DC.

John Amor brings those scripts to life with his artwork, using mostly Manga Studio with PhotoShop as needed. John's a podcaster, streamer, and Eisner-nominated artist with works published by Image Comics, IDW and DC's former webcomic platform Zuda Comics.
