Staff Picks (January): Bill & Ted's Most Triumphant Return #1
Dec 17, 2014
In difficult times, it is important that we remember to love, to be kind, and to be excellent to each other. However, there is one life rule that is often overlooked: party on, dudes!
Many years ago, two of the greatest time traveling, rock & roll loving, party animals instilled those rules in audiences and made history. Now, they are back for one more reunion tour.
This spring, Bill S. Preston Esq. and Ted “Theodore” Logan bring Wyld Stallyns back to San Dimas for an all new adventure beginning in March from BOOM! Studios. Based on one of the most beloved film properties from the late 80s, Bill and Ted’s Most Triumphant Return sees the two bros traversing time yet again as they reunite with several historical figures, while meeting some new faces along the way.The most heinous Chuck De Nomolos is out to tarnish the Wyld Stallyns’ reputation, so our heroes set out to show a young Nomolos how to party.
Writer Brian Lynch and artist Jerry Gaylord deliver a tale of historical proportions that portrays the lighthearted nature of the early Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter in the most excellent way. The art perfectly recaptures the spirit and likeness of the characters. Additionally, with a backup provided by Ryan North and Ian McGinty, there is plenty of bodacious content to go around.
While we await the long rumored third movie in the franchise, Bill and Ted’s Most Triumphant Return #1 provides good, light hearted fun that guarantees to satisfy that wyld itch.
