Animal Farm for the 21st Century Continues this April
BOOM! Studios today revealed a first look at ANIMAL POUND #3. From the minds of the multi-Eisner-winning, New York Times bestselling writer Tom King (The Human Target, Mister Miracle), Eisner-nominated industry titan Peter Gross (Lucifer, American Jesus), Eisner-nominated colorist Tamra Bonvillain (Once & Future, World’s Finest), and Eisner-nominated letterer Clayton Cowles (Strange Adventures, Die), discover the modern retelling of the timeless Orwellian allegory in ANIMAL POUND.
As freedom and democracy flourish, the animals work together to set up a steady stream of donations for the pound, and all seems well for a time. However, tensions build as the fairness of the current system is called into question, and when Piggy the dog decides to run for election, he does something unthinkable that shocks all of the animals to their core…
ANIMAL POUND #3 features a main cover by series artist Peter Gross and variant covers by highly acclaimed artists Yuko Shimizu (The Unwritten), Phil Hester (Beyond the Breach) with Bill Crabtree, and Julian Totino Tedesco (Black Badge).
