Boom! Studios has announced that everyone’s favourite time-travelling duo from San Dimas are set to return this June for the most excellent new series Bill & Ted Save the Universe from writer Brian Joines and artist Bachan, the creative team behind Bill & Ted Go To Hell.
“In Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, the duo was tasked with creating a song to save the universe. While they never got around to that, fast forward a couple centuries, and their music is now something galaxies fight over. In Bill & Ted Save the Universe, Bill & Ted’s music is supposed to bring peace to the cosmos, but peace doesn’t just happen overnight—there’s always resistance to anything that rattles the status quo,” says Joines. “It’s such a broad, fun, goofy tale that as long as you maintain those levels, there’s really nothing that’s off the table in terms of where you take the story and the characters. They’ve already time-traveled and visited the afterlife—why NOT send them on some big intergalactic adventure next?”
Strange things are afoot in the cosmos, and the Wyld Stallyns are pulled into an intergalactic conflict between a group of fans looking to spread the word of their music and a rigid alien law-enforcement officer who thinks their music does more harm than good.
