Before you double-check to see if you clicked on an Onion article by mistake or misread furry for āFuryā (like Nick Fury), you didnāt on both counts. According to a data mine from Marvel Snap Zone, a fan-run news site, Marvel Snap is getting a bunch of cute anthropomorphic reimaginings of iconic Marvel characters.

While developer Second Dinnerās furry card variants, which I assume must be a part of Spider-Hamās wacky universe, are a far cry from its lackluster pixel art variants, I canāt help but scratch my head at Captain America and Black Catās fursona variant cards. Black Cat as a black cat seems like a layup of a design choice but for whatever reason, her variant is a catfish version of Angelina Jolie from Shark Tale thatās somehow sporting heels. Call it Black Catfish. Also, while Iām on my soapbox, why isnāt Cap a golden retriever instead of a cat boy? His Hollywood actor, Chris Evans, fookinā loves doggos (as he should), so why is his Snap fursona a feline?
Kotaku reached out to Second Dinner for comment, mostly about that last thing.
Aside from furry Snap variant cards coming to your area code, Marvel Snapās latest patch update also introduced a bunch of new cards, updated art and visual effects, and bug fixes. You can read the rest of Marvel Snapās February patch notes in full here.
