Highly recommended but it won a Hugo so I'm not the only one

I  just finished Digger, by Ursula Vernon.

 

It's a graphic novel, on the web at http://diggercomic.com. It's about a wombat who runs into trouble underground and surfaces very far from home. There are some scary bits, some ethical conundrums. A lot of talking about philosophy and practical applications. Good characters, and an internally consistent plot that Vernon indicates was not there at the beginning. Great worldbuilding. Some amazing art.

I was feeling disconnected from the giant slab of Sanderson fantasy-opera, about halfway through. I picked up Digger, and read it straight through, with a stop in the last chapter last night so i could get sleep.
