Son of Ambush Bug

    (DC, 1986)
DC

Son of Ambush Bug follows on the heels of the Ambush Bug Stocking Stuffer. In it, we once again find AB down on his luck, out of work, and talking obsessively to his toy doll, Cheeks. The six issues of this mini-series feature Ambush Bug in a variety of goofy vignettes. These include a Japanese monster movie remake of Ambush Bug (“Gauguin, Friend of Rodin”), Jack Kirby parody “Amber Butane,” and a series of bizarre encounters with letters column character Jonni DC. Cheeks also gets his turn in the spotlight, starring in tales such as “Combat Cheeks, Frontline Medic.”
