In the darkness of the Woods, everything that skitters, slithers and flies answers to the Squirrel King. Now those maddened beasts have begun invading the Yard, and they’ll eat every bug and Myte they can find… until they get their claws on Slade Slaymaker.
After the Squirrel King’s attack, Slade Slaymaker and his friends find themselves lost in the Ash Lands, where the Underbugs prowl the blackened landscape. If they’re going to survive, they’ll need a guide. Enter Doolie Crow Cutter, the Yard’s most notorious mouse-skinmner and fur trader.
Jason Aaron and Mahmud Asrar are back for an all-new chapter in their breakout sales beast, Bug Wars. Bug Wars: The Coming of The Wardoom ramps up the action and hits shelves this August from Image Comics.
This eight-issue story arc continues the savage suburban epic that feeds Honey, I Shrunk the Kids through a war grinder and marinates it in Conan-flavored myth and mayhem.
Six months after the Yard ran red with insect blood, uneasy peace is shattered as ancient enemies rise from the Woods, corporate extermination forces close in, and Slade Slaymaker is dragged back into a brutal world where roach knights ride, squirrel armies gather, and survival means choosing your side in a war no human was meant to fight.
Bug Wars: The Coming of The Wardoom #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, August 19.
