Reinder Dijkhuis is one of those cartoonist who work on a very impressive oeuvre without too much fuss or publicity. I’ve been reading his books since he self-published them in the late nineties, although I must admit that I’ve lost track a bit of his current book, Rogues of Clwyd-Rahn.
When We Had Tails was one of the wordless (if not silent) stories Dijkhuis collected in the minicomic Pin Drop in 1998. It’s a very cute story of how a female God creates man and women with tails, and what happens after she’s discovered them making love. Along with the other stories from this collection, it is available in its enterity on Dijkhuis’s website. Read it, you’ll love it.
