Welcome to Tranquility #10 - WildStorm


Ok, we've gone from Tranquility . . . to Zombie-ville. Seriously. You've just entered the equivalent of a super-hero Buffy comic. It all started when the Deputy tried to dynamite the town's fountain of youth. It seems that it was put there by a demon that reports to the devil himself. So when someone tried to mess with it, he offended the host, and raised his anger. "He's sent his zuvembies out to punish every living thing for touching his waters." Which is why Tranquility is . . . well . . . not so tranquil right now. There's zombies coming out of the woodwork. This devil has recruited Emoticon and his grandfather to be his 2 adepts . . . to act as his earthly agents. And since Emoticon has no lost love for this little burb, things could get messy. Currently the Deputy and Zeke, are trying to ward off the takeover of the town by the denizens of the graveyard. And Maximum Man has showed up to lend a hand. However, the demon reverses his magic word, and now he's just a frail little old man about to be eaten by zombies. Great story by Gail Simone. And, as I've said before, Neil Googe's art get better, and more creative, issue after issue. I really like this book.
