Review: THE HOLY ROLLER #1 – Insane Fun! (Andy Samberg, Joe Trohman & Rick Remender)

THE HOLY ROLLER #1 hits your local comic book shop on November 22, but thanks to Image Comics, Monkeys Fighting Robots has an early review for you. The book is written by Andy Samberg, Joe Trohman & Rick Remender. Roland Boschi is the artist, and Moreno Dinisio drops the colors. Check out my review and five-page preview below.

About the series:
Comedian Andy Samberg (SNL, Palm Springs) and Fall Out Boy’s Joe Trohman join Rick Remender (Deadly Class, The Scumbag, LOW, The Sacrificers) and fan favorite artist Roland Boschi (The Scumbag, Wolverine) for the upcoming series The Holy Roller. This bowling-themed bonanza will strike this November from Image Comics as part of the ever-growing Giant Generator Studios line.

The Holy Roller is a tale of a trick-bowling-ball-wielding vigilante battling to liberate his home by bowling the perfect game—against evil! Kingpin meets Inglourious Basterds meets Batman (that old chestnut) with equal parts action and humor, and a special introductory issue featuring 42 pages of story—two issues worth of content for the price of one.

To care for his ailing father, pro-bowler Levi Coen is forced to quit his dream job and return to his hometown, which he soon discovers has been overrun by Neo-Nazis! With only his bowling ball collection to defend himself, Levi becomes THE HOLY ROLLER!
