Crusher Loves Bleeder Bleeder Loves Crusher

A boy loves a bug and a bug loves a boy, but can a bug love a boy for more than his blood?

Publisher Marketing: Keck's drawings [are] delightfully visceral and at the same time having fun. ... This comic is about pushing the line of what is permissible in moral quandaries while also quite funny and gross. It's great to see space given for such bizarre work.-- "Inkstuds" Review Quotes : Stemrich's affecting tales and Keck's inventive cartooning deliver a richly rewarding comics experience.-- "Cinema Sentries" Publisher Marketing : The old-timers in Texas's Erzsébet county say that nature don't ask permission, it feeds when it needs. But the bloodsucking bug in this here yarn got to thinking that nature ought not be absolute. Would you believe that this guy would rather dry up 'n die than ruin another picnic by taking his thirsty fangs to the softest baby with the deepest veins? And would you believe, just when he's ready to die of thirst and turn to dust, a sickly human boy named Thum -- a kind-hearted crusher done crushin' -- finds our starving bug -- a big-hearted bleeder done bleedin' -- and hatches a plan to invite this feederfly back to where he slumbers?
