Your First Look: Axe Cop & Dr. McNinja

By Allie Townsend | @Allie_Townsend | July 27, 2010 | +

The first installment of a crossover between entirely awesome webcomics Axe Cop and Dr. McNinja is up. (Hooray!) Axe Cop is the absurdly adorable story of an officer who fights crime while wielding an axe, plucked the straight from the mind of a six year-old (and illustrated by his 29-year-old brother). Dr. McNinja is Chris Hastings’ long-running webcomic about a ninja who moonlights as a doctor, or, is it the other way around? Anywho, there is an epic partnership coming from these two forces that I’m sure will include head chopping, dinosaur riding and other crosses between people, creatures and varying states of madness. (See the first meeting between the two heroes here.)
