The Dark Side of the Internet in Rocko's Modern Afterlife #3 Preview
Explosive publisher BOOM! Studios has revealed a preview of Rocko's Modern Afterlife #3, hitting stores next Wednesday. The comic continues the hit 1990s Nickelodeon television series, though creator Joe Murray originally planned Rocko's Modern Life as a comic book in the 1980s, so things have actually come full circle. In Rocko's Modern Afterlife, as you can probably guess, the case finds themselves facing a zombie outbreak, which is where this preview kicks in…
With Heffer apparently already turned…
Thankfully, Heffer is not, in fact, a zombie. He was just tired…
Which means he's available to help stop the plague…
So they take to the internet, where they inadvertently stumble upon… er… dog porn?
Yuck! But we're not done exploring the horrors of the internet just yet…
Check out the press release below for more info, and look for Rocko's Modern Afterlife in stores on Wednesday.
LOS ANGELES, CA (May 31, 2019) – BOOM! Studios today revealed a first look at ROCKO'S MODERN AFTERLIFE #3, available in stores June 2019. In this exciting next chapter from writer Anthony Burch (Borderlands 2) and artist Mattia Di Meo (Adventure Time/Regular Show), everyone's favorite wallaby, Rocko, is trying to survive the zombie outbreak that's taken over his home of O-Town!
Rocko and Filbert have finally made it to Casa del Heffer but his best friend's been bitten by the ravenous zombies! It's only a matter of time before Heffer becomes just another mindless, ravaging citizen of O-town unless Rocko can get him to the only place in town that might hold some answers and a potential cure: Hook Labs. Only one snafu: they don't actually know where Hook Labs is located. Will the team be able to track down the hidden location of the secret Conglom-O labs in time to save Heffer's brain from turning into mush?
ROCKO'S MODERN AFTERLIFE #3, features a main cover by Ian McGinty (Glint) and a variant cover by illustrator and artist Joey McCormick (Teen Titans Go To The Movies)
