FIRST LOOKS
APOCALYPSE NERD #3
Apocalypse Nerd #3 will arrive in stores on May 31 from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is by Peter Bagge.
Here's how Dark Horse describes the book:
"As our heroes Perry and Gordo slowly work their way back towards 'civilization,' they quickly realize that in the wake of the nuclear attack civilized society no longer exists. Entire communities abandoned! Rednecks killing each other over the last bottle of soda! Communes of nerds living behind barbed-wire encampments‹and worst of all, no internet! Can our heroes adapt, or will they head back to the hills? Also: a 'Founding Fathers Funnies' entry recounting the too-short life of the unjustly obscure war hero and radical John Laurens."
Apocalypse Nerd #3 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.
