“Writer Xavier Dorison and artist Felix Delep have crafted a powerful and different look and direction for this Orwell inspired book.” —GEEKVIBESNATION.COM

“It’s worth mentioning that perhaps the most striking thing about this comic is its timing. With real life headlines telling us of Putin’s unjust war against Ukraine and the bravery of average Ukrainian citizens as they fight back against Russia’s presidevntial dictator, what better time could there be for a comic like Animal Castle?” —FRANKIESCOMICS.COM

“Animal Castle is an astoundingly wellillustrated story of survival in a brutally run animal kingdom. Picture the animated film “Chicken Run”, but without the laughs and antics. It’s chilling and incredibly breathtaking to read. And recommended.” —FANBOYFACTOR.COM

On the Farm all animals were equal. In the Castle some are more equal than others. For fans of the bestselling Stray Dogs and the Eisner Award winning Beasts of Burden comes an animal fable at once familiar and surprising! You may think you know the story, but set aside your assumptions. This animal uprising is unlike any you have read! Nestled in the heart of a farm forgotten by men, the Animal Castle is ruled with an iron hoof by President Silvio. The bull and its dog militia savor their power, while the other animals are exhausted by work, until the arrival of the mysterious Azelar, a traveling rat who will teach them the secrets of civil disobedience.

Collecting issues 1-5 of the bestselling comic series into a handsome hardcover volume, with complete cover gallery.

ANIMAL

“Felix Delep hits a home run with the art from the start! The animals are all drawn with amazing textures; it’s like I can feel their fur myself just by touching the page. They look so realistic and yet… they are talking!” —THEGWW.COM

“The art showcasing these animals is perfectly done. This is a touching story that will have you feeling for these poor animals.” —FIRSTCOMICSNEWS.COM

The Signed Edition of Animal Castle Vol 1 features all the same great content as the regular edition hardcover, but also includes a tip in signature plate, signed by both the writer and artist of Animal Castle, Xavier Dorison and Felix Delep. LIMITED TO 250 COPIES.
