The perfect summer plan will be a nightmare beach party with this slimy, creepy, mad cap summer mystery from Eisner Award winner Derek Charm (Invincible Squirrel Girl, Jugied)!
After graduation, Ben and Leo are ready to celebrate summer by patrolling the beaches of the idyllic seaside town of Port Dorian as lifeguards. However, they arrive and discover that a mysterious, toxic spill transforms the water into no use, scattering the shores with dead fish corpses. Their work becomes a cleansing of the beach, and no hermit crab-like lump can be found anywhere.
When they save local historians with eyes that sparkle from the water, and tentacle monsters begin to steal people at night, Ben and Leo must work with the only other teenagers in town to uncover the cause of the spills, save new friends and family, and get this sexy summer on track before it’s too late.
Collection of Toxic Summer #1–3.
