Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees

In this six-issue IDW series from 2023–2024, Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees follows a seemingly idyllic small town where the residents are all anthropomorphic animals—and one of them is a serial killer. Created and written by Patrick Horvath, who also provides the expressive, storybook-style art, the series blends cozy, woodland visuals with a tense, psychological thriller. It stands out for its clever subversion of the "cute animal" genre, exploring dark themes of secrecy and violence beneath a charming surface.
