Description

Sherman and the crew are back, living life in their beloved lagoon as they deal with problems that sound all too familiar to us land-dwellers. But theyre not the only ones to call this corner of the tropics their home. Theres Arturo, the ninja lanternshark who briefly becomes Shermans guru and mentor. Boris the fish-eating spider whos really not so bad once you get to know him. A gang of obnoxiously sassy water bears. And one undersea spaghetti monster with a wit that cuts deeper than the Mariana Trench.

Laugh at old friends and meet some new faces in Jim Toomeys latest collection of comics. Hairless beach apes are welcome just go easy on the sunscreen.
