Awakening from hibernation

My car has been in hibernation for 3 months, having not moved a single inch nor started up. When i left it i didnt really prep it for the storage. But im about to see my car again and i was wondering what i need to do to make sure it runs properly. Any specific things i need to watch for or do immediatly??

It should have a rough start the first time, and your battery could be dead.

3 months is not that long. I wouldn't worry about it.

i'd say at least change the oil and take off the valve cover and pour some oil on the head for an easier start up.
