A serialized clothing series · Dented Can Comics

SAVE THE
ANIMALS

Serialized clothing for creatures nobody asked to save.

Each limited release pairs an original character shirt with a collectible hangtag containing its complete and generally discouraging story.

Save the animals. The people aren’t worth it.

Antepillar shirt and two-sided hangtag concept

The hangtag is part of the product

The shirt gets their attention. The story makes it collectible.

The front identifies the character and its place in the series. The back delivers the full story and moral—something to pick up, read, show someone else, and remember.
