Bug!: The Adventures of Forager

Young Animal has a New God title now!

Written by LEE ALLRED • Art and cover by MICHAEL ALLRED • Variant cover by JAMES HARVEY • Variant cover by PAUL POPE
An all-new Young Animal miniseries begins! Forager is just one of the Hive before he breaks out of his cocoon and finds himself in a mysterious house in an unknown realm. There he meets all kinds of strange creatures: a ghostly girl, a talking teddy bear and otherworldly weirdos that have literally jumped out of his worst nightmares. But these interdimensional oddballs are nothing compared to the evil General Electric, who is on the hunt for a reality-bending metal that could alter the fabric of life itself. To stay one step ahead of him and preserve the multiverse, Forager must travel through alternate dimensions to seek the metal and, hopefully, catch up with that cagey stuffed bear. If he does it, will he finally be able to distinguish himself as a New God?

Forager is about the last 'New God' who should be getting their own series... But the premise sounds somewhat intriguing, so I'll probably give this a try.

This looks...like when Morrison left Doom Patrol & Animal Man, and the following writers tried way too hard to copy him.

Mike Allred's style looks like satirization of comics, which is why X-Static was such a good read. But this one doesn't look tongue in cheek.

I like Allred's for the most part.
I'd love to see him on a Mr. Miracle series.
