Oni Press, the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997, proudly announces the return of the sun-radiated smash-hit TOXIC SUMMER #2! Eisner Award–winning cartoonist Derek Charm (Jughead) is headed back to the shore for the next suntan lotion-lathered chapter of the summer’s most tongue-in-cheek fright-fest! The critically acclaimed beach blanket bloodbath crests its second wave on July 3rd!
Ben and Leo arrive at the bonfire beach party ready to cut loose, only to find the site seemingly abandoned in the wake of the attack . . . until Amy nabs them from her hiding place! Together they learn from Roger—Amy’s dad and the same man they rescued in a catatonic state in the ocean with GLOWING EYES the night before—that this toxic spill and the emergence of tentacled monsters from the deep began right after he removed an ancient relic of a highly advanced civilization from the ocean floor. Is there still time to return it and get this sexy summer back on track?
Featuring covers from the summer’s most searing-hot artists Derek Charm (The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl), Nick Cagnetti (Pink Lemonade), and Alexis Zirrit (Space Riders) TOXIC SUMMER #2 is as serious as a shark attack – look for it in comic shops everywhere on July 3rd!
