stereofeathers:aloneindarknes7: thebiscuiteternal: northstarfan: malafight: spoonyruncible: spookyram: aubrophonia: THIS IS SO COOL woah This is from ‘Beasts of Burden’, a really cool comic about a bunch of dogs (and one cat) protecting their town from the supernatural things that threaten it. It’s spooky and sad and really just fantastic. At one point they teamed up with Hellboy. Everyone should read it (if you don’t mind some pretty dark things happening. it is not a cheerful comic but it is a good one). Hey! So, I loved this comic, and still think about it occasionally, and tonight it was linked to me again with just the right timing so that I hyperfocused and squirreled off to go read everything! They aren’t really numbered well, but the Wikipedia page has a list of them in release order and what anthologies to find them in! But given that it’s a pain to seek out each one one by one, I’ve got a list of links in order a smidge further down! Please try to support Dark Horse Comics if you can, but if you’re broke like me and still want to read, the Internet is a beautiful place. According to the wiki page, there are at least two more installments to come, scheduled for May 1st and June 5th, but there’s no real update schedule for the series as a whole. Do note: they are graphic, gory, and sad, with a lot of body horror. But they’re really fantastic. Beasts of Burden: Animal Rites contains:1. Stray2. The Unfamiliar3. Let Sleeping Dogs Lie4. A Dog and His Boy5. The Gathering Storm6. Lost7. Something Whiskered This Way Comes8. Grave Happenings 9. Sacrifice (Hellboy Crossover) Beasts of Burden: Neighborhood Watch contains:10. Food Run11. Story Time12. The View From The Hill (the one in this post!) 13. Hunters and Gatherers14. What The Cat Dragged In15. Wise Dogs and Eldritch Men The trade collection for “Wise Dogs and Eldritch Men” came out a couple of weeks ago, btw. “Neighborhood Watch” is due out in October and contains more stories than listed above (including the Hellboy crossover). This is one of my favorite series ever and I’m so glad it’s finally getting proper collections instead of one-off anthology appearances. Warning, though, the story about Hazel and her pups will *destroy* you. I’d like to add on that there’s a great crossover of Beasts of Burden with Hellboy! The one with hazel hurt me but “A Dog and His Boy” physically broke me -- source link
