Houston: We've Got Bubbas!

Bubbas of the Apocalypse #4

by Selina Rosen (Editor and Contributor), Bill D. Allen (Contributor), M.H. Bonham (Contributor)

Bubba gets his hand out of his pants and reaches for the stars

Most of civilization in ruins, Yumbies (yuppie zombies) running around chomping on the brains of Bubba kind, oh what’s a red-blooded, NASCAR-watching, tobacco-chewing American to do?
Well... ain’t no guards on NASA—secret government lavatories, and all sorts of scientific thingy-ma-bobs, so it’s time for Bubbas to spread their wings, reach for the stars, and tinker with things... well, that they probably shouldn’t be farting around with.
Bubbas in space, with time machines, dealing with aliens, building robots to save them from Yumbies... Why this here might jus’ be the funniest damn Bubbas of the Apocalypse book yet.
