Into the Bewilderness GN (2026 HarperAlley) comic books

1st printing. Story and art by Gus Gordon. In the Bewilderness, life is good. Best friends Luis (the large furry one) and Pablo (the small furry one) spend their days wandering through nature, playing songs on the guitar, and eating Slow Joe McNallys pinecone porridge with their neighbors. When dreamer Luis receives an unexpected invitation to attend a performance of The Weary Mermaid in the big, bustling city, he finds it hard to ignore the allure of the bright lights. Luckily, he doesnt have to go it alone—and its a good thing, because its a long journey through the Bewilderness, and Luis has many questions. Will they meet laser-eyed gargoyles, zombie chickens, or tyrannical cow rulers? Will they get there on time? Why is quicksand so slow if its called quicksand? Thankfully, with his grumpy but loyal best friend by his side, theyll soon find out.. . . Or will they? Softcover, 6 1/2-in. x 8-in., 192 pages, full color. Middle Grades Cover price $15.99.
