Boom Box's Lumberjanes continues to go from strength to strength, sweeping up awards, putting out luxurious collections, and now launching its first ever one-shot special featuring two truly excellent guest creators, Faith Erin Hicks and Rosemary Valero-O'Connell.

Hicks is the celebrated author of Friends With Boys and The Adventures of Superhero Girl, while Valero-O'Connell is an up-and-coming artist and future star whose work we've celebrated in the past. They've joined forces to tell a one-off tale about the Lumberjanes exploring the majesty of the sky... and the wonderment of a ghost pony. Check out our exclusive preview:

This self-contained story perfectly captures the spirit of what the Lumberjanes are: hardcore lady-types who can fend for themselves, but also quick to help those who are in need!
