For fans ofGrumpy Unicorn, Groucho the Grouchy Groundhog is back with his half-pig, half-uncorn (and all smiles) sidekick, Blork! And while Groucho would much rather be eating pancakes or napping, Critter Creek might need him to save the dayagain.

Lord Turnip and his legion of zombie farmers have been prowling the universe, looking for the perfect place to plant their tasty turnips. But their Poo Poo Glue Slime is killing all the plants in Critter Creek! Can Groucho figure out how to stop them
This original graphic novel sequel brings back all of your Critter Creek favorites!
