Description

Otis may be handy with the spade but what makes him undertake his duties? In this eighth installment of comics by Lorin Morgan-Richards, we dig deeper into the mortician who sprinkles the creme on top of crematory. Included in this book are all your favorite slightly-deranged characters including Otis' rootin-tootin' daughter and sheriff Orphie, his morbidly witchy-wife Pyridine, their pickle-loving horse Midnight, and their hairball raising cat and quilting tarantula Dorian. As well you'll find in these pages the town of Nicklesworth's own: Tumbleweed, Souq, Rowe, Knockout Kate, Miss Abigail, Ol' Man Pickenpinch, among others!
