Angel Catbird by Margaret Atwood, Illustrated by Johnnie Christmas and Tamara Bonvillain (2017) Dark Horse Comics

A three-issue set written by the imitable Ms. Margaret Atwood.  It serves two purposes; 1) a fun and sometimes silly story about a superhero (?) who is part human, part cat, and part bird vs. a man who is part human and part rat.  And 2) a plea for people to keep their cats indoors so they won't get killed and won't decimate the songbird population.  Ms. Atwood obviously enjoyed herself as the writing exposes her trademark wit.  Worth spending the afternoon reading.
