2023 September Candy Box Cosplay Collectible Cover by Paul Green - limited to 325 copies. Written by Dave Franchini. Art by Jordi Tarragona. This is it-issue 3-the next issue after 2! And sadly the end of this slightly oddly insane story. I don't know about you but it's been pretty intense, a little sad, probably too weird, and hell did you make sure to find all the hidden raccoons in the last one? I think I counted 18--but also by the time you're reading this sentence, it's already too late, we stole your wallet and used your credit cards to buy a ton of black market weaponry-good luck explaining that one to your bank. Soooo…anyway, don't miss out on the conclusion that concludes better than any other concluded story ever…maybe…possibly…hopefully-definitely and stick around after the credits for what wacky mishap Cindy(well, if she lives) gets into next time! 40 pages, full color.
