Beasts of Burden Animal Rites HC (2010 Dark Horse) comic books 1990 or later

1st printing. Collects Beasts of Burden (2009 Dark Horse) #1-4.

Written by Evan Dorkin. Art by Jill Thompson.

Black magic, demonic frogs, and zombie road kill are just a few of the problems plaguing this seemingly sleepy little town.

Beneath the quiet streets a rat cabal plots vengeance, while in the local cemetery the dead leave their graves. With the human residents unaware of the supernatural danger, it's up to a determined crew of dogs (and one cat) to keep their community safe. Lives will be lost, and bonds forged as the beasts of Burden Hill battle against an unknown evil rooted within their town.

Award-winning comics creators Evan Dorkin (Milk & Cheese) and Jill Thompson (Scary Godmother) come together to share the lives of some unlikely heroes.

This volume reprints the comic-book series Beasts of Burden issues #1-4, the short stories from the Dark Horse Book of Hauntings, the Dark Horse Book of Witchcraft, the Dark Horse Book of the Dead, and the Dark Horse Book of Monsters, "Stray," "Unfamiliar," "Let Sleeping Dogs Lie," and "A Dog and His Boy," published by Dark Horse Comics.

Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 168 pages, full color.

NOTE: "It's a lot of fun, and ideal for kids who don't mind a little gore and ghosts with their adorable animal." - The (Onion) A.V. Club

Cover price $19.99.
