It tells the story of Dashiell Bad Horse and is set on the Lakota reservation in South Dakota.

This comic is full of interesting and well-developed characters and Guéra's artwork is sparse and gritty enough to set the right tone.

Some have characterized it as "Sopranos on the Rez," but I think it deals with even deeper issues than the Sopranos and I don't think it glorifies the violence so much. The characters are allowed to be truly sorrowful for the bad things that they've done and wrestle with their nature, which gives the novel a more nuanced view of violence, grief, loss and death than you get with the mafioso mindset.

I like to use the program Comical to view these .cbr and .cbz files. It's an easy download.

You can easily find other sources of these around the web, but here's my collection:

However, I recommend going to the local comic store and picking up a hard copy. I usually get a collection of issues for about $15. This allows you to curl up on the couch and really sink into the storyline and linger on the illustrations. At this point, you could pick up at least three volumes of the series and get lost in the thing.

You can also read the first issue for free (in PDF) at this link: http://www.dccomics.com/media/excerpts/7722_1.pdf

Fall is here. Hope you all had a great weekend!
