Just finished re-reading the awesome "Beasts of Burden by Evan Dorkin and Jill Thompson and my friend informed me that a new Beats of Burden special had just come out! What timing!
Ahhhh, just finished re-reading the AWESOME Evan Dorkin/Jill Thompson Graphic Novel BEASTS OF BURDEN: ANIMAL RITES, oh how I love this series!!!! Was even better the second time around as I now know and love all of the characters and could take the time to examine all the little things Thompson draws in her pictures that make the comic such a joy to look at!
I've loved artist Jill Thompson ever since her stint in my still favorite Sandman arc BRIEF LIVES and so when my friend told me about a new series she was illustrating featuring a team of sleuthing dogs (the titulars 'beasts") of a rustic town (Burden Hill) how could I refuse? And as written by Evan Dorkin, this series was as fun and imaginative as I'd hoped!
