This was such a lovely collection of comics! I haven't read any other issues from this publication, but I am definitely interested now. The theme of "animals" included all kinds of comics, from infographics, cool illustrated facts, personal pet stories, illustrated legends, political/social animal rights comics, funny short strips, etc. by a ton of different artists, and they were all wonderful! My favorites were the infographics and illustrated animal facts. I also loved the different styles each artist used- there really was a wide variety.

Fantastic. Sometime a depressing gut punch but not ALWAYS and 100% excellent/worth your time. Cover art from Lisa Hanawalt is only an added bonus.
