Cindy is a scrappy little latchkey kid with an overactive imagination, which is forever landing her in trouble. She daydreams of monsters when she should be paying attention in class, and disappears into the woods surrounding her house well into the evening, much to her mom's exasperation.
Cindy and her ever-loyal best friend Biscuit get into all sorts of adventures, most of which involve saving the world: from aliens, werewolves, mummified mermaids, abominable snowmen, swamp ghosts, inter-dimensional monsters, you name it. When the one-eyed creature who has been haunting Cindy's dreams pulls Cindy and Biscuit into its world, the girl and her pup go missing IRL. Can our heroes find their way back home?
Even though there is a main plot here, CINDY AND BISCUIT: VOLUME 1 feels more like a collection of loosely connected vignettes, some only a few pages long. The different stories are somewhat interesting, and give White a chance to showcase a variety of Big Bads (my favorite are the sentient snowman who hunts down his creator, i.e., Cindy, and an altercation with an abominable snowman that ends in a snowball fight ... not to mention the werewolf with a heart of gold).
CINDY AND BISCUIT has two things going for it: White's spectacular (and spectacularly creepy) artwork and, of course, a dog. (I am forever a sucker for a canine sidekick.)
