Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Muktuk Wolfsbreath, Hard-Boiled Shaman originally appeared in short stories in comics created by Terry LaBan (artist of the newspaper comic, Edge City), and then received a longer treatment in a limited-run comic book , published by Vertigo Comics in 1998. Some years after the print comic's run ended due to weak sales, LaBan published another Muktuk story (actually a prequel to the earlier comic), Muktuk Wolfsbreath, Hard-Boiled Shaman: The Spirit of Boo, as a Webcomic. This has since disappeared from the Web, but the Webcomic material and the earliest strips have been collected into a book which is still available in print and PDF forms. So Muktuk Wolfsbreath is best treated as a set of comic books that were once a Webcomic for a while.These comics are notable for recycling Film Noir tropes in the context of Siberian tribal life. As LaBan put it, "the realization that shamans were kind of like detectives, in that they brought about change by discovering the source of problems, clicked with that classic hard-boiled voice, and, suddenly, there was an idea for a character." The title character and provider of the monologue is a jaded but very capable shaman who takes on supernatural cases, solving them successfully but taking a battering in the process.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

All for Nothing: In the past, Muktuk took on Umiak Birdbutt in order to keep from being kicked out of his village. One ass-whupping later, the black shaman had humiliated him in combat, nearly tore his soul to shreds, and stole the souls of Muktuk's wife and child. To top it all off, Muktuk left the village anyway, since there was nothing left for him. | |

Anti-Hero: Muktuk is a cynical, pragmatic character who generally works for payment, but he does what’s needed to keep the world turning. | |

Animal Eye Spy: With a ritual, Muktuk can do this with Weasel—though it's not as useful when the little guy's boozed up. | |

A God Am I: Shamans can make deals with gods to be able to take of their persona and use their power, but shamans who do so run the risk of dissolving in said persona and/or pissing their god off by using it incorrectly. | |
