When an unstoppable evil
spreads across the universe, heroes across time and space will be summoned
together to face a threat that none of them could have possibly dealt with on
their own. In Super Secret Crisis War!, the fate of the universe will
depend upon a stoic warrior, a kid hero, a mad scientist, a fearsome trio of
lab experiments, and… Ed, Edd and Eddy?!?
This June, the heroes of some
of Cartoon Network’s most popular shows will join together at IDW for this
all-ages, mega-colossal crossover where worlds and characters collide like
never before! Written by the legendary Louise Simonson, the
six-issue event will feature the herculean heroes going toe-to-toe against the
nefarious nemeses Aku, Vilgax, Mandark, Mojo Jojo, attempting to thwart their conniving
conquest.
"I love writing group
books! So obviously, Super Secret Crisis War! is my dream
job!" says series writer, Simonson, "Even researching the series
is fun—who doesn’t love watching cartoons!? Especially excellent, award-winning
cartoon series like Samurai Jack, Ben 10, Powerpuff Girls, Dexter’s
Laboratory, and Ed, Edd, & Eddy. But the very
best part is seeing the art and design so beautifully realized by the wonderful
Derek Charm. Fun characters, great artist, and a really fine editorial team
at IDW!"
Art and cover duties will be
handled The Powerpuff Girls writer and artist Derek Charm.
Each issue will also feature a subscription cover by The Powerpuff
Girls writer and artist, Troy Little that combine to form one
massive image, so make sure to collect them all. Additional variants by top
artists including Katie Cook (My Little Pony) will also be
available for this special event.
The beloved Cartoon Network
franchises at IDW have brought back the nostalgia for old fans and introduced a
whole new audience to the amazing creations by series creators Genndy
Tartakovsky (Samurai Jack), Craig McCracken (The Powerpuff
Girls), and Man of Action (Ben 10).
And starting in July, the
madness expands! Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends, Grim Adventures of
Billy and Mandy, Johnny Bravo, Codename: Kids Next Door, and Cow
and Chicken will all take center stage as they join the madness of the Super
Secret Crisis War in their own one-shots. Written by Ivan Cohen, Kate
Leth, Erik Burnham, Scott Peterson, & Jim Zub,
respectively, each one-shot will tie in to the Super Secret Crisis War
showing the full scope of the looming threat.
With all of these classic
characters sharing the page, the universe will never be the same!
