''[http://www.heathencity.com/ Heathen City]'' is a 2008 [[Furry Fandom|furry]] [[Ho Yay|homoerotic]] [[Film Noir|noir]] thriller series of graphic novels by by Alex Vance. (Not ''[[Half Life|that]]'' Vance, mind ''you'') It originally started between 2004 and 2006 as an unfinished novel called ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20090722135302/http://www.furrag.com/viewstory.php?sid=61 Maranatha]'' which takes place years before ''Heathen City'' itself.
 
''Maranatha'' takes place in the fictional decaying city of Maranatha, Florida, on the equally fictional Blood Bay Peninsula. The story centers around its main characters Owen Zelazny and Q. I. Malloy. Owen, an American wolf, is a self-employed male hustler constantly turning tricks. Malloy, an English doberman, is a petty thief and drug dealer. Owen and Malloy are childhood friends. They are emotionally and sexually intimate, but are [[Just Friends]] [[Friends Withwith Benefits|WithBenefits]] without any romantic layer.
 
''Heathen City'' takes place some years in the future after the unfinished ''Maranatha'' story. In its backstory, Maranatha was abruptly destroyed in 2005 when its entire city center collapsed into a giant sinkhole at least eight square miles in size. The initial survivors couldn't be rescued because a [[Deadly Gas|lethal dust]] billowed up from the collapse crater, killing the majority of people who came in contact with it.
Line 9:
In both stories, Owen and Malloy are thrust into the role of [[Action Hero|Action Heroes]], with much [[Badass|Badassery]] ensuing.

== These works include examples of the following tropes: ==
* [[Action Hero]]: Owen more of an accidental one, but Malloy always seems to be armed to the teeth whenever he needs to be.
* [[All Men Are Perverts]]: Done unapologetically straight (not ''that'' kind of straight).
Line 36 ⟶ 34:
* [[Fan Service]].
* [[Film Noir]].
* [[Flamboyant Gay]]: Alice, though intentionally this trope. ([[StraightInvisible Gayto Gaydar]] is still the realistic norm in these stories.)
* [[Furry Comic]]: Not a normal human in sight.
* [[Interspecies Romance]]: Malloy and Alice. Owen and Ruy. And maybe Alice and Owen too, but committed monogamy seems to be rare in this story in any case.
