What I’m reading – Beasts of Burden

I had been hearing a lot about Beats of Burden for a while and so picked up the first issue on Free Comic Book Day. It’s really great. Neighborhood pets as paranormal investigators sounds like kiddie fare, but don’t let that or the art style throw you – it’s hardcore.

And Jill Thompson won the National Cartoonists Society’s division award for Best Comic Book just a few weeks ago.
