Baaku

A creature of the Modern Age, Baaku made their mark in DC's celebrated Wednesday Comics — that bold 2009 experiment in oversized, newspaper-strip storytelling brought to life by some of comics' finest talents, including the acclaimed team of Azzarello and Risso. With only four catalogued appearances, Baaku is a rare and intriguing presence, sharing pages with a remarkable roster that includes Wonder Woman, Kamandi, Boston Brand, and others, hinting at a world both wild and wonderfully eclectic. Scarce appearances can mean outsized mystique, and for fans who love hunting the corners of DC's modern landscape, Baaku is exactly the kind of discovery that makes digging through Wednesday Comics so rewarding.
