David Guy Levy’s Graphic Novel, “Pet Human”, Starts Shipping Out This November
Pet Human is an upcoming graphic novel written by David Guy Levy (creator) and Steffen Schlachtenhaufen, with artwork by Alex Heywood. Pet Human has been in the works since 2014 when Levy thought “I wonder how I’d feel if I was a pet, living somewhere that made no sense to me but knowing that it all was going to be okay.”
You can read Pet Human‘s official description below:
This is the story of Buster, a pet human who was adopted to a loving couple named Blorg and Pruni. He may not know much, such as how the world he lives in works or why things are the way they are, but he knows one thing for sure: he’s safe and he is loved. Buster lives his day-to-day life in their care, struggling to find his place and learning to follow the rules in his new home. Every day presents a world of curiosity and wonder as he develops a loving bond with his alien caretakers. Only with time will he be able to appreciate the home he’s been adopted into, and be able to give back the unconditional love his family bestows upon him
The Paperback and Hardcover copies of Pet Human both feature beautifully designed covers and you can check those out below:
