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.
