Return to the world of the cult-classic film with this prequel from the mind of its original creator!President Nixon has discovered an alien threat, and he knows there’s only one man he can reach out to for help: Elvis Presley. But will Elvis be enough to defeat a horde of Cosmic Bloodsuckers?The 2002 Bubba Ho-Tep comedy-horror film based on the novella by Joe R. Lansdale is a fan-favorite that balances themes of aging with the all-out whackiness of a soul-sucking mummy. This all-new story takes readers back to a world when Elvis truly was The King!
“…a gem of a story from Joe R. Lansdale skillfully adapted for the funny pages by writer Joshua Jabcuga. It’s just as funny as Lansdale’s original “Bubba Ho-Tep” and, importantly, it’s got those same downbeats that ring true with the King’s history…” –Will Nevin, The Oregonian “…Lovecraftian horror with sixties and seventies pop sensibilities…Bubba Ho-Tep and the Cosmic Blood-Suckers burns up the pages with purpose.” –Heath Holland, Cereal At Midnight.com “Bubba Ho-Tep and the Cosmic Blood-Suckers combines monster movie serials of the ’30s with the post Vietnam war sensibilities of the ’70s to create a thinking man’s comic for the 21st century.” –Susan Leighton, Editor - 1428Elm.com “Bubba Ho-Tep and the Cosmic Blood Suckers is a comic series that is starting to revitalize my love of comics…I’m hard pressed to think of any other comic series that is able to switch tone and design from issue to issue and still provide the reader with such a rich and amazing experience.” –John Edward Betancourt, Nerds That Geek.com
