BOOM! Studios is proud to announce RUINWORLD #1, the debut issue of writer/artist Derek Laufman’s worldwide hit all-ages comics series at BOOM! Studios. Intrepid adventurers Pogo and Rex are on a quest for fame and fortune. Their discovery of a special map leads them on an epic journey through dangers, demons and old enemies. There’s one tiny problem—they’ve already lost the map. Now they’ll have to survive the greatest dangers of a world where threats hide behind every corner…if they can find a way to first survive each other’s best intentions first!
Here are those diamond codes for RuinWorld. Issue 1 Derek Laufman Cover MAY181180
