Scooby Apocalypse, Vol. 1 by Wellinton Alves, Jim Lee, Howard Porter, Dale Eaglesham, Keith Giffen, J.M. DeMatteis, Ron Wagner
5.0

Scooby doo has been around since before I was on this planet. And he is still popular. But until now he has always been more of an entity for kids. A group of mischievous kids and their dog out to solve mysteries. This graphic novel gives us a new origin story, and the group comes together because of a zombie/vampire apocalypse. One caused by Velma and her research. Daphne and Fred are a TV news crew, Shaggy is a dog trainer, and Scooby-doo is one of the first smart dogs. Except his experiment was not successful. This is a version of Scooby doo that this adult wants to keep reading. It’s dark, adventurous, yet still contains the fun that made me fall in love as a kid. Plus the graphics are amazing. There are a few of these images I would love to hang on my wall. They are bright and colorful, without being comedic. Loved this, and can not wait for the next volume.
