Monster High: Boomuda Triangle #1

Fang-favorite characters Spelldon Cauldronello and Kieran Valentine are starring in their scary first miniseries: a multiverse adventure that includes glimpses into monstrous steampunk, pirate, and Wild West worlds, featuring alternate versions of popular Monster High characters.

Spelldon is eek-vited to a once-in-an-unlifetime summer internship with the all-powerful guardian of the Boomuda Triangle, the place where all worlds are kept in balance. His boyfriend, Valentine, is defrighted for him, but he can’t help worrying about what the weeks apart will do to their relationship. What if Spelldon forgets him? What if the guardian is scary hot?! What if he falls into a wormhole?!?! So Valentine secretly follows Spelldon to the Boomuda Triangle to make sure no shenanigans happen and accidentally kind of unintentionally causes all the universes to rip apart and converge...oops! Spelldon and Valentine will have to overcome their insecurities, mend the rips, and find each other in every universe. Easy queasy!
