COMICS NEWS: God Hates Astronauts Collection Announced

Image Comics have announced that they will release a trade paperback collection of Ryan Browne’s webcomic God Hates Astronauts on October 9.

In God Hates Astronauts, the announcement explains,NASA hires the Power Persons 5 to keep the nation’s farmers from launching themselves into space in homemade rocket ships. The bad news is that NASA is wasting their money, because this gang of hooligans is going to hang out, get drunk, have extra-marital affairs, and occasionally save the day in spite of themselves.”
