Yeah, I’ve said you don’t want to see or read Plague Dogs, it’s Watership Down that you need to read! If it’s good enough for Sawyer it shold be good enough for you.

I’ve also read this…and it was nice of The Goog not to out me on this one…but this comic made me cry. If you are really senstive about animals, as I am…here’s your warning.
That said, it’s a good story with a good ending….but yeah, it’ll pull at your heartstrings.
I’ve refused to have anything to do with plague dogs ;-)

I like this alot too but felt it was a bit too short. It reminded me quite a bit about Richard Adam’s “Plague Dogs” where two dogs (Rowf and Snitter) escape from a research facility. In the escape they run through the lap making a mess and it is believed they might have gotten into the area containign the bubonic plague so there is a huge “man” hunt for the dogs. The book is about half the dogs point of view and half the people looking for them. The best part of the book is the dogs and them trying to survive in the English countryside and deal with the things they went through at the facility. It’s a bit long and slow in the middle but a good read, there was an animated movie made of it by the same people that did Watership Down. The movie is really good and focus’ mainly on the dogs. It ends ambiguously though and is a bit depressing, so much that I had to read the book to know what really happened (the book has a happy ending). But yeah, alot of We3 strongly reminded me of Plague Dogs (as you can probably see why from the description). I heard that there is talk about making this into an animated film too. Hopefully it won’t have as depressing an ending as Plauge did!

I have NEVER heard of this title man, but you’ve got me sold. I’m going to my local shop and have Steve keep this title for me on standby. Good looking out!!! Now THAT’S a review!
