New Releases by Tom Sniegoski

A great parent/child read for fans of classic Saturday morning cartoons in the vein of Jonny Quest. A boy must team up with a group of elemental apes in order to save his mother from possession. A raucous tale in the tradition of the classic Saturday morning cartoons—Jonny Quest, The Herculoids, Space Ghost, and The Mighty Mightor— Nothing Can Stop...The Ape! This mini-series tells the story of Maxwell Morgan, a twelve-year-old boy who will go to any lengths to save his mom (who has been possessed by the spirit of Thuuna, an angry primordial goddess), even going as far as freeing the goddess's immortal enemy from his magical prison. With his faithful French bulldog and four primitive cave people gifted with the powers of the elements, Maxwell must convince the newly-released gorilla god of chaos, Ghraagg'endah, to help them save the world from Thuuna's genocidal intentions and free his mother from the goddess's clutches. Paying homage to the Hanna-Barbera animated shows of the late sixties, Nothing Can Stop. . . The Ape! is a story for all ages. So pour yourself a bowl of cereal, and strap yourself in for a non-stop, pulse-pounding thrill ride of epic proportions because nothing can stop . . . The Ape!

Building on the success of the critically acclaimed and bestselling Space Ghost series, Dynamite Entertainment is proud to bring another beloved Hanna-Barbera classic to readers — The Herculoids! Hidden in the furthest reaches of space, the planet of Amzot is legendary for its fabled riches — and for the terrible fates that befall anybody who seeks to exploit them… Those who survive their encounters tell blood-chilling tales of horrific, imposing monsters that guard the mysterious world — yet the lure of its abundant resources is too great to resist. Raiders and pirates continue to come from across the galaxy, and there is only one force strong enough to stop their constant attacks — The Herculoids! But as strong as these defenders are, a recent battle may have pushed Amzot to its limits — and awakened a sleeping darkness within the planet itself! Written by TOM SNIEGOSKI (Vampirella, Hellboy) and drawn by CRAIG ROUSSEAU (Batman Beyond, Gotham Adventures), The Herculoids #1!
