Cover Details

Synopsis	"There is an unparalleled force of evil in this world, one which rains down brimstone and blood and washes everything good into the underground waste vaults of the sewers. That force is called Devil Puppet, and you'd be just as nasty if you had someone's hand up your butt all day. Evan Dorkin and Sarah Dyer unleash Devil Puppet in the latest issue of this award-winning, side-splitting, life-saving, tear-jerking series. Also, the Dork and his buddies Mark Badger, Kyle Baker, Robbie Busch, and Stephen Destefano bring you more "Java Drive," more "You Are Here," and more characters whose names can't be mentioned in these G-rated pages. So grab a Piano. Wait, take two, they're small!" Solicitation text from Dark Horse Comics.
