A Dog’s Loyalty Knows No Bounds in Original Graphic Novel, BEAR
October 9, 2019The phrase, ‘Man’s Best Friend’ could not be more true, which is even more evident in the synopsis of the upcoming Boom! Studios original graphic novel, Bear, from creators Ben Queen and Joe Todd-Stanton.
The book will focus on Bear, a guide dog, who loves looking out for his owner, Patrick. They’re a great team! One day, out of the blue, Bear‘s vision disappears and he becomes blind. He needs to regain his eyesight and to do so, must set out on an epic adventure to find a magical spirit in the forest. His trek will take him through busy city streets and wild forests. He’ll make friends along the way and learn to navigate while utilizing his other senses. Ultimately, he must try to make it back to his best friend.
“With Bear, I really wanted to create something that shows a world that we are familiar with, but in a completely new and original way. Stanton’s illustrations take that unique lens and add a whole new level of imagination and joy,” said Queen. “Bear is a wonder-filled adventure about the deep bond of friendship. Plus, talking animals! I guarantee you will not see the world the same way after you’ve seen it through the eyes of Bear.”
Bear will hit bookshelves in August of 2020, so keep an eye out for this one!
