  Despicable Deadpool duo—Gerry Duggan and Scott Koblish—reunite to give the world the giant monster attack story that Hollywood is too squeamish to provide in the upcoming, The Giant Kokjü . This three-issue miniseries is sure to turn heads this April from Image Comics. A tale of woe, The Giant Kokjü is about a monster with physical needs. It needs a restroom. It needs food, too. And, most unfortunately, it needs…sexual satisfaction. The only thing standing in its way are the men and women of science. "I recently celebrated ten years of collaborating with Scott, and this is how I thank him," said Duggan. " Giant Kojkü is a cornucopia of low-hanging fruit, and it all works.

The Giant Kokjü has it all—laughs, tears, and a beating heart...and some other body parts. Get smashed th...
