‘The Toxic Avenger’ Meets Jesus Christ in ‘The Toxie Team-Up’ Comic

Alex DiVincenzo | 02/24/2025

Some say, “Jesus take the wheel.” Now The Toxic Avenger is here to give the Lord and savior a helping hand.

Toxie will join forces with Christ himself in the pages of a new comic book written by Mark Russell and drawn by Richard Pace.

The Toxie Team-Up #1 will be published on June 11, 2025 from Ahoy Comics.

The series finds Toxie rubbing elbows with characters from other Ahoy titles, including Jesus Christ from Second Coming, the Jersey Devil from Project: Cryptid, Acid Chimp from My Bad, Dragonflyman and Stinger from The Wrong Earth, and Swamp Cop and Schitt from Justice Warriors.

“Toxic Avenger and Jesus Christ is the team-up that everybody has been clamoring for and I am not one to stand in the way,” said Russell. “Just as in Second Coming, Christ shows that there are more tools in the box than just violence and that Tromaville, as strange as it is, is still a place that someone who grew up bullied by the jocks in the Roman Empire would recognize.”

“Having already spawned five films, a cartoon, action figures, a musical, and a Marvel comic book series, the Toxic Avenger is a pop culture icon,” added Ahoy Comics editor-in-chief Tom Peyer. “The only question is: why doesn’t he have a church of his own?”

Ahoy is also releasing The Toxic Avenger graphic novel, collecting the 2024 miniseries by writer Matt Bors and artist Fred Harper, on April 1, followed by The Toxic Avenger Pinup Special one-shot on May 14.

It’s a big year for Toxie, with Macon Blair‘s The Toxic Avenger reboot hitting theaters unrated on August 29 from Cineverse and Bloody Disgusting.
