Comic Book Preview – Sweetie Candy Vigilante Vol. 2 #5

October 28, 2024 by Gary Collinson

Sweetie Candy Vigilante Vol. 2 #5 is out on Wednesday, and you can take a look at the official preview of the issue below courtesy of Dynamite Entertainment; take a look…

Sweetie and the entire Candy Vigilante Squad (Candy Wolf, Pixie, Gummee Bear, Tinsel, Hansel and Gretel, Peter Cottontail, Jack Rabbit, and Honey B.) have settled into the fully operational “Fortress of Sweetness.” Located on the Twin Islands in New York’s East River, these sweet new digs are decked to the nines with candy-coated drip and equipped with a Sweetie Candy Vigilante-themed pinball machine that is all-in Hatchy Milatchy Multiball!

The team gets a house call from ally Dr. Faerie Wilder, a.k.a. THE Tooth Fairy herself, revealing her integral role in the science and magic of Sweetie’s defense weapons development and the relevance of Sweetie’s “trinkets,” (human teeth excised from those born bad to the bone and inherently evil) — all thanks to her cover/day job as a highly-skilled dentist.

And speaking of bad to the bone, there is a truly evil darkness in NYC, and within that darkness is Genio “Bug” Vespa. The crime syndicate thug and self-made vermin whisperer pays a visit to Sweetie’s new island compound under orders from Bart Volgare. Seeing what a busy little bee she’s been, “Bug” poses as an extermination subcontractor dispatched by the NYC Department of Environmental Protection to investigate a potential contamination on the islands. Will the sweet squad tell him to buzz off — or let him in to see what their new “pestie” is all about? No need to get antsy, though, it’s all goodie gumdrops… Sweetie’s locked and loaded, and there’s no stoppin’ her Jawbreaker from poppin’! Even the Queen Bee Esmeralda bows to Sweetie with love and adoration, and is ready to do battle until the salty feel her sting!

All this awaits, among other surprises — including the breaking news that the waters surrounding the “Fortress of Sweetness” are now populated with Sweetie’s latest creation… Sweetish Piranha Fish! Isn’t that NICE? TRICK OR TREAT…? DON’T MISS THIS ISSUE — AND BE SURE TO SATISFY YOUR SWEET TOOTH JUST IN TIME FOR HALLOWEEN!

Sweetie Candy Vigilante Vol. 2 #5 is out on Wednesday, October 30th.
