Bambi Revisited? The Fire Burns in Beasts of Burden and More Dark Horse Previews for 8/22

Dark Horse has released previews for three of the four single-issues they're releasing on Wednesday (tough luck for those of you who couldn't decide whether to purchase Bedtime Games #3). Check out previews for Beasts of Burden: Wise Dogs and Eldritch Men #1, Black Hammer: Age of Doom #4, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 12: The Reckoning #3 below.

BEASTS OF BURDEN: WISE DOGS AND ELDRITCH MEN #1
A heroic pack of canines known as the Wise Dogs set off on a mission to clean up a Pennsylvania corridor plagued by seemingly unrelated occult disturbances that include a fire salamander and a horde of mutant lurkers. A link is found among the various disturbances, leading our heroes to a mountain village inhabited by a survivalist witch-cult who have discovered the existence of a "Blood Lure" attracting occult forces, creatures, and many more terrors to Burden Hill!

* The eight-time Eisner-winning series is back!

* Variant Cover by Rafael Albuquerque!
