Description
Other Stories and the Horse You Rode in On is a collection of Dakota McFadzean's comics. Short stories filled with yawning skies, dark humour, and quiet ruminations on memory, aging, and time. Drunken gnomes, sensitive teenagers, and a meditative cowboy all wander toward a sprawling, ghost-ridden horizon. McFadzean's stories have been featured in the Best American Comics anthology for 2012 and in Regina's Prairie Dog Magazine. His minicomic Ghost Rabbit won a Shuster Award and The Dailies was shortlisted for Slate magazine's Cartoonist Studio Prize for Best Web Comic of 2012.
