Join the bizarre world of the O.D.D. Squad - a team of (sort of) heroic animal crime-fighters you'll never forget, as they take on Captain Bad and an even more terrible enemy... The O.D.D. Squad are here for another epic (or maybe just epically silly) ADVENTURE! Quack Attack, Detective Octopus and Invisidog are the most feared crime-fighters ever to roam Justice CIty. They're a bit of a strange gang, but by heck they get the job done. Most of the time. Their old enemy Captain Bad is also BACK! He is determined to beat the O.D.D Squad once and for all and decides the best plan is to clone himself. What could possibly go wrong Errm, maybe the whole plan He accidentally creates Captain Worse, an even more evil version of himself. Now Captain Bad is forced to work with the O.D.D Squad to stop Captain Worse from carrying out his terrible plans to destroy, well, everything...

Vincent Batignole (Illustrator) Born in the southwest of France, Vincent Batignole grew up surrounded by French comics, colourful anime on TV and his grandparents' collection of true crime books. No wonder he quickly developed a passion for anything cute, scary and geeky! Trained at the Ecole Pivaut in Nantes, his professional journey started with the comic series 'Gloom Cookie' created by Serena Valentino (Disney's 'Villains' book series) and Ted Naifeh (Courtney Crumrin). Since then, he's been illustrating and writing for various international clients, including EPIC!, Capstone and Andrews McMeel, while earning a Master's Degree in cinema history and film analysis. Vincent now resides near Paris with his dog, Kero, and what's easily one of the biggest collections of manga drawn by CLAMP.
