Synopsis

A graphic novel that’s a unique mashup of Siberian shamanism and classic noir detective fiction, Muktuk Wolfsbreath takes readers on a wildly entertaining, hallucinogenic journey to heaven, hell and the dark secrets hiding behind the skin covers of reindeer herders’ tents. The mean streets of New York and L.A. have nothing on the frigid forests of Siberia when it comes to danger, and Muktuk Wolfsbreath needs all his shamanic powers to deal with wicked women, thuggish tribesmen, demons, animal spirits and his own troubled past as he fights to rescue a young boy's soul. Includes the 3 original, never-reprinted Muktuk stories that appeared in LaBan’s alternative comic series Cud and Cud Comics.
