Some of our favorite titles to come out AHOY Comics in the past couple of years is its Toxic Avenger revival. AHOY has taken the Toxie-verse line–headed up by writer Matt Bors–has shone a light on what makes the legendary Troma property so much fun, while adding its own mark on the Toxie-mythology.

That’s certainly the case with The Toxic Crusaders, especially as the series wraps this month with issue #5. Written by Bors with linework by the new and phenomenal artist Tristan Wright, issue #5 looks to be a showdown for the ages between the Crusaders and the villainous Smogulans, with the fate of Tromaville in the balance. Sign. Us. Up!

That’s why we’re so excited to be able to present you with an exclusive preview The Toxic Crusaders #5 from Matt Bors and Tristan Wright that AHOY Comics was kind enough to share. Check out the completely you-don’t-what’s-going-to-happen-from-one-page-to-the-next pages below ahead of the issue’s release next week on Wednesday, April 15!
