An amazing "Fargo in the Bayou". Overworked, heavily pregnant park ranger has to deal with a drug-crazed gun-nut, his brutal clan of poachers and ruthless gangsters. Nice story, great art. I absolutely recommend it.

I’ve said before that I’m skeptical of Free Comic Book Day’s ability to bring in new, regular readers for monthly comics.
@ignitionpress.bsky.social
Minotaur does a great job of making that easier, though, by devoting a page to comics-buying process, including release schedules. Very cool.
