The creative team responsible for revitalizing Tank Girl last year returns with an all-new series! In Visions of Booga, Part 1: Falling Angel Blues, we join Tank Girl and her marsupial hubby Booga as they find themselves the victims of the worst run of bad luck ever. The tank has been lost in a wager and the Australian Mafia are after their pelts. Their only hope seems to lie on the other side of the country, with Booga's estranged little brother. A transcontinental Kerouackian odyssey begins, courtesy of Mr. Martin and Mr. Dayglo (Snaked), with the help of some smart wraparound covers from the esteemed Mr. Wood (Zombies vs. Robots).
BONUS 'MY FIRST COMIC' by KALI HORNICK
I’m pretty sure the first comic book I read was Tank Girl: Visions of Booga #1.
I was about 15 when I asked my best friend if we could watch her copy of the Tank Girl movie.
“No,” she snapped, “I don’t want you to watch it.”
“Why not,” I whispered.
“Because if you watch it,” she replied, “you will like it, and then you will read Tank Girl. Tank Girl is my thing, I want to keep it to myself.”
That moment sparked the type of curiosity that, for the majority of 15 year old girls in the suburbs who listen to Metallica, can only be avoided for so long.
I secretly watched “Tank Girl” and decided that I had to see the books for myself. I convinced my friend to take me to a comic book store; Graham Crackers Comics in Naperville. I browsed through the store in awe for about 2 hours before buying my first few comic books. That night I went home and read Visions of Booga #1, and probably #2. I was in love and comics have been slowly eating away at my savings account ever since.
