Andy Fox

Andy Fox is the mother of the Fox family in Bill Amend's newspaper comic strip FoxTrot, wife to Roger and parent to teenagers Peter and Paige and youngest son Jason. A health-conscious, work-at-home writer, she anchors the family's suburban household with practical common sense.

A supporting player in Bill Amend's beloved FoxTrot universe, Andy Fox made her catalog debut in 1990's Pass the Loot and kept company across roughly twelve years with the Fox family ensemble — Peter, Paige, Roger, Jason, and even the iguana Quincy. Turning up across titles like Come Closer, Roger, There's a Mosquito on Your Nose and FoxTrot Assembled with Care, she's a quietly familiar face in one of the Copper/Modern Age's most warmly regarded newspaper-strip collections from Andrews McMeel. For fans who love the domestic comedy world Amend built, tracking down her appearances is a charming corner of the FoxTrot library worth exploring.
