Tom King, Peter Gross, Tamra Bonvillain, and Clayton Cowles team for Animal Pound

Multi-Eisner-winning, New York Times bestselling writer Tom King, Eisner-nominated industry titan Peter Gross, Eisner-nominated colorist Tamra Bonvillain, and Eisner-nominated letterer Clayton Cowles team up for the first time at BOOM! Studios for a modern retelling of the timeless Orwellian allegory in Animal Pound this Winter.

When animals grow tired of being caged, killed, and sold off–it’s only a matter of time before they’ve had enough…

After an uprising puts the animals in control of a pound, they quickly find themselves as comrades–united against everything that walks on two legs. But with this newfound power comes a sudden challenge: how best to lay the groundwork for this new democracy.

Visionaries King and Gross give us an updated version of Animal Farm for 21st century America, where a two-party system gives way to fear and facism in this can’t-miss event series.

Animal Pound #1 features a main cover by Peter Gross, with variants by Yuko Shimizu, Gabriel H. Walta, Bill Sienkiewicz, Skottie Young, and more!

Animal Pound #1 will be available in comic shops December 20, 2023 and the Animal Pound #1 Ashcan will be in comic shops November 15, 2023.
