Confused? I used to go by Elvira. "Elvira" is absolutely not related to my real name, I just liked it, so I changed it to IV Skard. "IV" are my initials, "Skard" is my last name.

I dreamt that I was making a furry comic that was super popular on the internets. They were fighting in a championship, and the Nirvana song Smells Like Teen Spirit was involved.

I was determined to draw this when I woke up. I'd make an awesome comic!

Upon returning to sanity I changed the idea, and it turned into something completely differen. Only the idea of the Championship remained and became Hellomuffin.

The comic is no less descriptive of real-life event and people than it looks. So it's not.

There's inspiration from real life constituting the ideas behind it, of course, but I don't base plots or characters on events or people anymore.

It did start out as such. But I felt incomfortable about it in the end, so I removed those elements which were abusive to people I know in RL.

Any similarity of the events or characters in the current strips to real-life events or people are coincidental, excluding Mike Tyson and George W. Bush. My humble apologies to Mike Tyson.

Riding a pregnant mare The three main characters have a couple self-descriptive features, like Marcus's geekiness and Shaka's unpredictability.

The things they say or do, however, do absolutely not necessarily reflect my own opinions or behaviours.

The part of the site which updates the comic is made with a PHP-script called Walrus. It's a simple and effective script which doesn't take over the interface and control of the site.

Other than that I made all graphics and design on the site, unless otherwise noted. If you would like to use something I've made, make sure I know about it and consent it.
