In Dark Horse’s new mini-series Beasts of Burden #1 (of 4) it’s up to a heroic gang of  dogs and a cat to keep residents safe from harm when supernatural occurrences threaten the small community of Burden Hill.

Award-winning comics creators Evan Dorkin (Milk & Cheese) and Jill Thompson (Sandman: Brief Lives) first introduced these heroic characters in the anthologies The Dark Horse Books of Hauntings, Witchcraft, the Dead, and Monsters, for which they won coveted Eisner Awards for Best Short Story and Best Painter.

Adventure, mystery, horror, and humor thrive on every page of Beasts of Burden, a comic-book series that will capture readers’ hearts and haunt their dreams.
