Praise for Dead Max Comix

"Dead Max is drop-dead funny."
 --Dav Pilkey, creator of Dog Man

"...told in short fast-paced chapters...characters encompass a more inclusive spectrum of skin tones.... A fun premise."
 --Kirkus Reviews

"I don't read books about dead dogs. But Dead Max is an exception to that rule. Max has the perfect blend of humor, heart and snark, everything you'd want in a dead dog."
 --Dori Hillestad Butler, Edgar Award author
