Monkeybrain Comics have released a preview of Code Monkey Save World #3, the final issue of the Kickstarter-funded miniseries by Greg Pak, Tak Miyazawa, Jessica Kholinne and Simon Bowland. You can check out the pages below. The series, which is based on the songs of Jonathan Coulton, follows the exploit of a put-upon web designer (who happens to be a monkey) who has the love of his life ripped from his grasp by the sudden invasion of a robot army. As it turns out, his employer--a supervillain called Skullcrusher, who owned the software company as a side gig--may have brought the invasion down upon us as a result of his doomed and complex romance with Laura, the Robot Queen. "This book takes the sci-fi, storytelling songs as a jumping off point. And those are really a small piece of my larger body of work, but obviously they're the most famous part," Coulton told ComicBook.com in a recent interview about the series. "I like to think I am well-rounded enough to have written a couple of really good love songs and breakup songs in there as well. But it's a lot harder to make a comic book about a man who is sad. Who cares, you know?"
