      ČERNÁ MAGIE, ŽABÍ DÉMONI A ZOMBIE Z PŘEJETÝCH PSŮ – to je jen pár příkladů útrap, které sužují toto zdánlivě ospalé předměstí. A protože jeho lidští obyvatelé nemají o skrytém nebezpečí ponětí, musí město chránit smečka odhodlaných psů (o kocourovi nemluvě). Na stránkách Bestií burdenských se můžete těšit na směsici hororu, dobrodružství, záhad a humoru, kterou si zamilujete i přesto (nebo právě proto), že vás bude děsit i ve spánku. Oceňovaní komiksoví tvůrci Evan Dorkin a Jill Thompsonová spojili své síly, aby nabídli čtenářům sbírku příběhů o nezvyklých psích hrdinech. První čtyři kapitoly byly původně publikovány jako povídky v antolo­giích nakladatelství Dark Horse a Dorkin s Thompsonovou za ně získali prestižní cenu Willa Eisnera za nejlepší povídku a nejlepší kresbu. Kniha Bestie burdenské: Historky z psíšeří obsahuje kromě těchto čtyř navazujících minipovídek také první čtyři sešity oficiální série.
