Story and art by Alex Graham.

Social justice, "woke" culture, social media, gender dynamics, and insouciance intersect in this pandemicinspired graphic novel about the repercussions of making mistakes.

It's July 2020 in Seattle. Gussy struggles to keep his dog biscuit boutique afloat while a global pandemic rages unchecked. The loneliness of lockdown and social distancing drives his employee Rosie to betray her principles. Rosie's roommate Hissy is at a personal crossroads. A love triangle emerges as they find themselves tangled in a web of police brutality, protests, drugs, dating apps, and Covid chaos.

Taking place over the course of just a few days, this is a snapshot of humanity - okay, animals - in crisis. Alex Graham's pandemic-inspired graphic novel was initially serialized six panels at a time on Instagram during the lockdowns of 2020 and became one of the most talked about comics of the year; this hardcover edition will remain a timeless work long after the pandemic ends.
