Garth Ennis and Jacen Burrows are back at Ahoy Comics with their profane, satirical fantasy series Babs: The Black Road South. And while the first issue just hit stores today, we’ve already got an exclusive look at issues three and four, both hitting in March.
In the sequel series, Babs and her friend Izzy have made a bit of a mistake. Specifically, after a night of drunken debauchery, they lost a huge pile of money… And now need to head down the dangerous Black Road South of the title to get it back.
Wondering what’s next? Read on for a look at the covers and solicit info.
BABS: THE BLACK ROAD SOUTH #3 (of 6)
(W) Garth Ennis
(A) Jacen Burrows
Cover A: Jacen Burrows
Cover B: Keith Burns
On their quest down the demon-cursed Black Road South, Babs and Izzy face murderous creatures, a murderous hobbit who’s into bondage, and a couple of particularly murderous, impossible-not-to-mock examples of cosmetic surgery attached to a narcissistic swordswoman! Is all of this stress worth the treasure that might await at road’s end? Of course. It’s treasure!
Any retailer who orders at least 3 copies of cover A (Jacen Burrows) will be eligible to order unlimited copies of cover B (Keith Burns).

(W) Garth Ennis
(A) Jacen Burrows
Cover A: Jacen Burrows
Cover B: Erica Henderson
More sword-and-sorcery mayhem from the co-creator of The Boys! Babs, Izzy, and Culpepper are cast away on the rapids of a body of liquid so disgusting we don’t even want to tell you what it is until we already have your money. Plus, the raft they’re riding might not be completely dead, in quite a gross way.
