Eisner and Harvey Award Winner ‘Beasts of Burden’ Returns This Spring

Evan Dorkin, Sarah Dyer, and Jill Thompson’s characters from their 2005 Eisner Award-winning short story “Unfamiliar” found within The Dark Horse Book of Witchcraft and first introduced in the short story “Stray” in The Dark Horse Book of Hauntings which won Jill Thompson the Eisner Award for Best Painter/Multimedia Artist, will be returning in their very own one-shot comic, Beasts of Burden: What the Cat Dragged In.
