This is a brand new comic I picked up the other day. It's published by DC under the Vertigo brand, so this isn't an all ages book. And it's not superheroes. The elevator pitch is the book is "Bambi meets Mad Max". It's the story of Gus, a human/animal hybrid who is left to survive in a post-apocalyptic world. It's by Jeff Lemire, a rising indie creator who was popularised by his Essex County Trilogy. I haven't read it, but I would like to when I can find it. The first issue was released two weeks ago, for the simple price of $1. Everyone has $1. Pick the book up, give it a try, and hopefully you'll like it. I thoroughly enjoyed it even though not a lot was revealed, but the tone is set up for the series. And Lemire's art is wonderful. So if you're interested, head into your local comic shop and pick up the first issue. And if you like it, you'll know what to expect from the rest of the series.
