Stray Dogs Plush & Feral Exclusives from Tony Fleecs & Trish Forstner
Introducing Tony Fleecs & Trish Forstner's Stray Dogs Plush!
Meet the Strays!
Launched by writer Tony Fleecs and artist Trish Forstner in 2021, Stray Dogs tells the chilling tale of Sophie, a shy Pomeranian who suddenly finds herself in a mysterious house with no recollection of how she got there. Joined by a motley crew of fellow “abandoned” pups who have nothing but glowing praise for the house’s owner (whom they refer to only as “The Master”) Sophie struggles to fit in. And as her memories slowly return, she begins to realize that something far more sinister is afoot (or should we say…aPAW??).
Combining an art style that evokes the buoyant spirit of classic animated films with dark storytelling worthy of the best in psychological horror, Stray Dogs has sold over 1 million copies in a variety of formats worldwide. Now, fans can adopt some of the book’s titular misfit canines in plush form. Dynamite Entertainment is excited to present three stuffed toys based on Sophie, Rusty, and Victor, bringing these characters to life in all their adorable glory!
If you’re familiar with Stray Dogs, admit it–you’ve wanted to cuddle up to this heroic trio and their furry friends ever since the first issue dropped, and we’re happy to make that wish come true. Don’t miss your chance to own all three collectibles and give these plush pooches their new forever home!
Did you miss the incredible graphic novel collection of Stray Dogs? Fear not! We have the standard trade paperback, a version signed by Trish & Tony, and even one with an awesome hand drawn remarqued sketch to make your Stray Dogs collection complete! Check em out in the pledges and add-on sections!
Always on edge, Sophie doesn’t take to her new housemates right away, and begins harboring suspicions about their so-called “Master” as soon as he brings her home. But don’t let her skittish disposition fool you–when the time comes, she’ll rise to the occasion and show enough courage for a dog ten times her size! INTRODUCING RUSTY:
Rusty is the Stray Dogs’ de facto leader, and he’s easily the most affable member of the group. At first, he doesn’t know what to make of Sophie’s bold claims against The Master, but he’ll become her closest ally as she sets out to learn how they all ended up under the same roof. INTRODUCING VICTOR:
Even after losing one of his legs in a tragic accident, Victor somehow manages to keep a smile on his face at all times…that is, until Sophie comes along with her warnings of doom and gloom. Expect him to play a pivotal role in the gang’s fight for survival (but take heed–it’s not for the faint of heart).
The Creators of Stray Dogs - Tony Fleecs and Trish Forstner
Tony burst onto the indie comic scene in 2006 with In My Lifetime, a series of autobiographical one-shots released via Silent Devil. The book’s success led to acclaimed stints on My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (IDW), Jeff Steinberg: Champion of Earth (Oni Press), and Dynamite’s own Gargoyles series as both writer and artist. In 2023, he and collaborator Tim Seeley launched Image Comics’ Local Man, which earned them a nomination for Best New Series at this year’s Eisner Awards.
In 2022, Trish and Tony earned an Eisner nod for Best Limited Series for their work on the book. And since then, her star has had nowhere to go but up. In addition to several of her own My Little Pony variants, Trish’s artwork has also graced the covers of many Dynamite releases, including Darkwing Duck, Lilo & Stitch, and The Powerpuff Girls.
