Angry Birds Comics #8

Three beloved birds — the grinning yellow Chuck, a wide-eyed black Bomb, and a stoic Red — find themselves in a chaotic tangle around a forked slingshot tree, its branches wrapped in red bands, suggesting things have gone hilariously sideways before a single bird has even launched. IDW and Rovio Books deliver another all-ages adventure with this 2015 installment, blending the slapstick energy of the beloved franchise with bright, expressive cartooning. If you've ever wondered what happens when the flock's own weapon becomes part of the problem, issue #8 looks like a fine place to find out.
