Once, a little tin slave with a clock for a heart broke all the rules--he found love, took a name, and escaped his masters to go on an epic journey to save his beloved. Along the way, he met strange allies and terrifying enemies and, ultimately, though his adventure didn't turn out as planned, he returned to his people and led them to freedom.
Now the fan-favorite all-ages comic fantasy continues with book two!
The freedom that Canto won so desperately is in danger, as he discovers his people's clocks will stop unless they return to captivity. He and his friends Falco, Rikta, and Veratta embark on a new adventure to save the lives of all their people. On their quest, they'll encounter old friends, relentless monsters, and the village of the mysterious Hollow Men. Will Canto and his friends lift the curse and save their people before time runs out?
Collects Canto II issues #1-5 plus the Clockwork Fairies one-shot.
David Booher grew up in a small town outside Cleveland, Ohio and became a Los Angeles lawyer before realizing writing was more fun. When he's not writing about the oppression of people without super powers...or a dude who chases aliens...or the creepiest parts of human nature...you can find him geeking out at comic conventions and marveling at how his husband and their adopted greyhound continue to put up with him. He grew up reading Stephen King, watching The Goonies and Nightmare on Elm Street, eating Lucky Charms in front of He-Man, trading Garbage Pail Kids, playing Nintendo, and going outside.
Drew Zucker is a New York based artist and 2010 graduate of The Savannah College of Art and Design. Having co-created multiple comic projects he eventually found his way to the co-creation of Canto. He currently lives in NYC where he works as a medical worker by training and continues to produce comics.
