The Rise and Fall of Morty the Dog

In 1987, Starhead Comix launched The Rise and Fall of Morty the Dog, a single-issue comic that has since become a cult touchstone for its concise, poignant exploration of a canine's life arc. The series, primarily associated with its creator, distills a full narrative of triumph and tragedy into one dense, emotionally resonant issue, standing as a testament to the power of a complete story told in a finite space.
