The phrase short and sweet was created for this collection of comics and Sprout the Korgi (magical, adorable, fire-breathing corgi, obviously). This is truly a greatest hits of everything great about the Korgi comics condensed into a whole bunch of wonderful little moments!

Last year I became an absolute evangelist for using a library card and Libby app to instantly gain access to thousands of comics for free! One of those comics I randomly came across was volume one of the five that make up Christian Slade's truly wondrous, cozy, bizarre, and unbelievably gorgeous comics, which I absolutely devoured and recently got the physical versions as a birthday present because I loved the so much.

Beware me knocking on your door asking if you have a moment to talk about our lord and saviour, Sprout!

This is perfection. This is what peak performance looks like.

The only complaints I have is wanting more and complaining that the physical copies of this particular collection either don't exist in the UK or cost a bajillion pounds to import.

The world is dark and awful. I adore dark and sad books. Sometimes I need a break from these things and is always a warm hug.

Meh.

I was hoping for a cute little short stories about a cute little doggo. However, the stories really didn't offer anything at all. The illustrations are cute but apart from that this was underwhelming.

The art style isn't really my vibe, but the adventures themselves were cute. No dialogue, which is fine for most of them but sometimes it might have helped give a little context for the "longer" short adventures because the art style is so busy and detailed that your eye can sometimes have trouble following Korgi.

I’m in love with the art style. Every panel is so detailed, I can almost here what’s happening in each setting.
