The Goddamn Tragedy #1

IN THESE WOODS, FEAR EVERYTHING—EVEN EACH OTHER! From breakout writer Chris Condon (Ultimate Wolverine, That Texas Blood) and rising star Shawn Kuruneru (Fishflies) comes a vicious and vengeful account of one of the Old West’s darkest episodes from those that lived to tell it in a lavishly painted, entirely self-contained 48-page graphic novella! Ellen Janson is here to set the record straight about the highly publicized, oft-sensationalized journey her family undertook in 1846. Ellen sets out with her mother, Irena, and her father, Leo, on the treacherous road west in search of a better life. But when her father chooses to split off from the party, taking an untested shortcut through the mountains, can their small family survive the elements, the wildlife—and each other? Or will their journey become nothing more than another goddamn tragedy?
