Battlepug is a webcomic about cute dogs and barbarian warriors. It's by Mike Norton, best known for his work on Runaways and Young Justice.

I instantly love this. Thank you! There is a elderly wheezy pug on my floor and I'm jokingly considering printing out the cover page and taping it to the owner's door.

Is this a preview of the new Conan film?

While I wait for it to load, I will re-watch the epic of the french bulldog who would not surrender his prized slipper.

This is good. But pugs aren't cute, they're horridly misshapen little monsters.

I'm usually immune to cuteness or animals, but something about cartoon pugs (like the one in the Men in Black cartoon) gets past my defenses.

What's so odd about her shape?

I'm really not seeing the mutual exclusivity here.
