New readers interested in testing out the longrunning, bestselling steampunk action of Lady Mechanika won’t be disappointed by this action-packed freebie issue.

New readers who haven’t yet discovered the Silence of the Lambs meets Lady and the Tramp murder mystery romp that is Stray Dogs will enjoy entering this Don Bluth animation inspired world.
Here readers meet Sophie, a dog who can’t remember what happened. She doesn’t know how she ended up in this house. She doesn’t recognize any of these other dogs. She knows something terrible happened, but she just…can’t…recall…WAIT! Where’s her lady? This FCBD edition will feature a brand new prologue, “That Doggie in the Window”—the unnerving story of the very first dog to ever come to the Master’s house.
