Dark Horse Comics has revealed Kevin Smith isn’t done crafting stories within the Askewniverse with a sequel series, Quick Stops II, coming to comic shops in November 2023. The four-issue series is written by Smith, with art by Ahmed Raafat and letters by Andrew Thomas.
Based on how good the first series was, we’re in for a treat with this sequel series.
“In Quick Stops I, we visited four small stories in the Askewniverse,” said Smith. “So for Quick Stops II, we did four issues of a massive story that spans a few decades to tell the tale of Mooby, the Golden Calf. And where that salacious story takes us is gritty, graphic and grotesquely grown up. I cannot wait to introduce you to Nancy Goldruff – who warranted merely a mention in 1999’s DOGMA, but gets a full-fledged secret origin story in Quick Stops II!”
So what’s Quick Stops II about?
Unlike the first series of Quick Stops, Quick Stops ll will be a four-issue series, spanning one storyline in which readers learn the udder truth about an American icon when a young podcaster tries to milk Mooby creator Nancy Goldruff for the bovine’s beginnings, only to meat a cow tale so shocking, it turns her brain to hamburger!
Check out covers by Nate Gonzalez, Chogrin (Quick Stops), and Raafat (Secret Stash exclusive variant) below.
