Their first adventure kicks off with the kids attempting to figure out how their parents know their every move. Once they discover why it will be about teamwork to figure out a way around it!
“As longtime fans of Nickelodeon’s innovative, outstanding programming, we couldn’t be happier to kick off our partnership with the return of Rugrats,” Filip Sablik, President, Publishing & Marketing, BOOM! Studios told ComicBook. “The entire team at Nickelodeon has been a fantastic partner, working with us to deliver the best all-new stories of your favorite animated shows in comic book form through our all-ages KaBOOM! imprint.”
