Comic Book Preview – Planet of the Nerds #1

April 11, 2019 by Gary Collinson

AHOY Comics launches its new series Planet of the Nerds next week, paying homage to classic teen movies of the 1980s like Revenge of the Nerds, Real Genius, Weird Science and Back to the Future albeit with a modern twist; check out a preview of the first issue here…

Three high school jocks in the 1980s are accidentally frozen by an experimental cryogenics device, only to be revived in the computer-driven, superhero movie-loving world of 2019–an era ruled by nerds! PLUS! A backup series explores the characters’ origins. EXTRA! Prose and pictures by the finest talents in and out of comics.

Planet of the Nerds #1 is set for release on April 17th.

Originally published April 11, 2019. Updated April 10, 2019.
