About 14 hours until departure. Reviewing marathon is in full effect in between the last of the packing and cleaning. This was in the random pile of unread comics. Don't remember where I got it.
Title: The Take of One Bad Rat
Issue: 1
Date: October, 1994
Publisher: Dark Horse Comics
Writer: Bryan Talbot
Artist: Bryan Talbot
Letterer: Ellie DeVille
Editor: Dick Hansom, Randy Stradley
A homeless runaway girl tries to survive on the streets of London, struggling to find someone she can trust while caring for her pet rat. The story unfolds amid visions and flashbacks to trauma she experienced growing up, and to a strange connection she has to Beatrix Potter and her stories.
Great characters and dialogue. A gritty story that doesn't need to go into excessive gore to make its point. And the Beatrix Potter references are intriguing.
Nice text introduction by Neil Gaiman.
Rating: 8/10
