While Norton is best known for more standard comic book fare, this story of a Conan-like warrior carried on his quest for revenge by a battle ready pug is just pure fun. This is just a taste of the weirdness that awaits you in Mike Norton's Battlepug. The child grows into a warrior and, as all warriors need a noble steed, it is not long before he discovers the brave animal who will carry him into battle: a giant, wheezing, perpetually happy pug. Battlepug has proven my suspicions correct as it is a giant baby seal that merrily lays waste to an entire Arctic village, leaving only one survivor: a child hellbent on revenge against this monstrous beast. Those big black eyes are pools of pure evil. I have always suspected that baby harp seals were capable of a vicious brutality that certainly merited clubbing.
