BOOM! Studios debuted Man's Best recently. The sci-fi comic, from writer Pornsak Pichetshote and artist Jesse Lonergan, follows three animals on a starship full of human refugees and it's one of the most instantly gripping new comics I've read this year.
The trio is made up of a cat (Athos) and two dogs (Porthos and Lovey), all emotional support animals belonging to scientist Dr Winters, who is experimenting on her pets by using holographic tech to train them in combat. Although it's a little vague on the nature of the threat, a few key facts are teased out over the course of the first issue. We'll get into those after this spoiler warning and Lonergan's lovely cover.
