Yee Haw! WILD WEST C.O.W.-BOYS OF MOO MESA #1 – Matt Hotson & Juan Gedeon Saddle Up for An All-New Adventure in September!
ON THE FRONTIER OF THE NACELLEVERSE… THE WEST’S MOO-ST POPULAR HEROES ARE BACK IN A BLAZE OF GLORY! Oni Press, the multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning publisher of groundbreaking comics and graphic novels since 1997, and global entertainment powerhouse the Nacelle Company are proud to reveal the next epic chapter of the Nacelleverse in WILD WEST C.O.W.-BOYS OF MOO MESA #1 – the FIRST ISSUE of an all-new limited series inspired by the classic animated series and their red-hot line of toy collectibles! On September 17th, the C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa are BACK and set to ride toward an all-new showdown – courtesy of wrasslin’ writer Matt Hotson (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Return) and blockbuster artist Juan Gedeon (DC: The Jurassic League)!
Before he takes the badge, ride into the lawless border town of Moo Mesa as we meet Marshal Moo Montana in his earliest adventure! In a time gripped by fear and uncertainty, disorder pervades the desert, and its citizens have started to go missing—including Moo’s former mentor, the respected Sheriff Marey Quine. With shadows growing across the mesa, Moo must navigate old grudges, new alliances, and a conspiracy that reaches deep into the heart of the mesa’s past.
Bringing together the nostalgic charm of the beloved Saturday morning cartoon series with a pistol-slinging new vision, follow Moo Montana, Dakota Dude, Cowlorado Kid, Cowlamity Kate, and more into a saga of justice, mystery, and redemption in a world where honor wears a hat and rides a steed. This is Moo Mesa like you’ve never seen it before—deeper and more daring. Saddle up!
“Giddy-up for a classic wild west tail – er, I mean TALE – set in the earliest days of the Nacelleverse,” said writer Matt Hotson. “We’re digging deep into the history of Marshal Moo Montana, and the case which first brings him to CowTown. Hold on to your hats as Moo meets new allies Dakota Dude, Cowlorado Kid, and Cowlamity Kate, and learn the secret history behind the formation of the C.O.W.-Boys… and how their first anthropomorphic adversary is connected to the COWmet which created Moo Mesa!”
“I loved Moo Mesa as a kid—Dakota Dude was my favorite!” said artist Juan Gedeon. “The heroes looked badass but still kind, which I found awesome. I wanted to be like them when I grew up. Now that I’m 38, it’s wild realizing the real villains were the sheriff and the mayor, the people who should actually protect the citizens.
Thank God that only happens in cartoons, right? Bringing these characters to life has been the most fun I’ve had in years. Matt’s scripts are amazing, I laughed out loud several times while reading them. Getting the faces right nearly broke me—I spent full days stuck on just one, but now I finally got the hang of it…I think! I’m aiming to create a book that hits for both lifelong fans and kids who’ve never heard of Moo Mesa—something that captures the heart of the original but levels it up for a new generation.”
On September 17th, go back to the very earliest origins of the Nacelleverse as Marshal Moo Montana rounds up the crew for a new adventure, marking the first time in over 30 years that the C.O.W.-Boys will ride into an all-new escapade!
Leading the stampede, look for a herd of covers from ace artists Juan Gedeon, Andrew Krahnke (G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero – Silent Missions), Joe Palmer (Time Before Time), Gavin Smith (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), and Patrick Spaziante (Sonic the Hedgehog), WILD WEST C.O.W. -BOYS OF MOO MESA #1 gets wrangled into stores on September 17th!
