The graphic novel prequel to the 2020 Battletoads game fills in the blanks of the last thirty years, in a retro beat-em-up adventure for the ages!

Dive into the badass world of Battletoads with The Lost Adventure, as the toads travel the universe in search of the Dark Queen to finally end her tyrannical reign. Pimple, Rash, and Zitz face a horde of powerful opponents, while also attempting to thwart the Dark Queen’s sinister plans.

The toadular trio participate in The Grand Fistival, a battle royale which gathered the strongest fighters in the universe. But a secret plot looms in the sewers of the celebration. Will the Toads prevail, or will their bond be tested by an out-of-this-world brawl?
