Like a Dog

Like a Dog by Sally, Zak. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781606991657.

Zak Sally is best known for his career as a musician in the band Low. He also is an acclaimed cartoonist. Like a Dog collects the very best of Sallys acclaimed short comics from the past 15 years for publications like Mome, Dirty Stories, The Recidivist and more. Stories like "Dont Move," "The War Back Home," "Two Idiot Brothers," and "Killing Screws" share little in common on the surface but are united by Sallys forbidding style. Nonfiction comics include "At the Scaffold," about the trial of Fyodor Dostoyevsky, and "The Man Who Killed Wally Wood," a story about Sallys brush with a former publisher of the legendary comic artist (who, contrary to the title of this strip, took his own life). Like a Dog will also include extensive "liner notes" by the artist, previously unpublished material, and other surprises.
