This Week’s Comics: Gamer Cats and Dirtbag Vampires – TheStranger.com

Sponsored

The lives of a journalist, musician, and painter intersect revealing unexpected truths.

Also tickling the fancy of comics fans this week is a charming book about a gamer who unexpectedly finds herself the owner of a stray cat. Fittingly, she decides to treat the cat like a video game challenge and level the creature up; its an utterly delightful perspective on pet ownership as an eternally shifting puzzle to be solved. Great stuff for gamers, great stuff for cat lovers, great stuff overall. Its not due to be released officially until the middle of May, but some retailers seem to have gotten it early.

Thanks as always to Phoenix for sorting through the new releases! Meow.
