Are you ready for a Scooby-Doo Apocalypse?
Later this month, DC Comics is revamping the classic Hanna-Barbara cartoon characters in ways that have never previously been attempted. And going first is Scooby-Doo, which finds the talking dog and his pals in Mystery Incorporated reborn in the world that came after the world we knew. It’s time for some post-apocalyptic fun with series creator Jim Lee, writers J.M. DeMatteis and Keith Giffen as well as artist Howard Porter for the first look at finished pages from Scooby Apocalypse # 1
Before of hipster Shaggy along the way, and it looks like this version of Velma has a few secrets to share as the Scooby Apocalypse series unfolds.
DC has released its solicitation text for Scooby Apocalypse # 1:
“Those meddling kids—Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, and their dog, Scooby-Doo—get more ghost-debunking than they bargained for when faced with a fundamental change in their world. The apocalypse has happened. Old rules about logic no longer apply. The creatures of the night are among us, and the crew of the Magical Mystery Machine has to fight to survive—because in the apocalyptic badlands of the near-future, the horrors are real!
This new monthly series takes Scooby and the gang to a whole new level and features character designs by comics superstar Jim Lee!”
Scooby Apocalypse # 1 will hit comic stores on Wednesday, May 25.
