Honestly, I have no idea what to make of this. I couldn't really follow the story at all. It seems to have spontaneously written itself, following an internal logic that leaves the reader behind. Part of a bundle I got at comiXology, Deadhorse follows a whole trend of somewhat similar comic book storytelling, but is not a particularly good example of it. But the art is pretty good, even if I personally would imagine it in a slightly more...subdued?...context.
The title refers to Deadhorse, Alaska, but that's about as much as is really relevant, even the concept of the dead birds in the volume's subtitle. It's like a Jeff Lemire comic done horribly wrong.

I didn't really get it either.
