Abigail and the Snowman #2

The cover of this second issue in Roger Langridge and Fred Stresing's four-part KaBOOM! series captures a wonderfully cozy bedside scene: a large, round-headed snowman in a suit peers over a sleeping Abigail while holding a coffee mug and a comb, as a slim, contented-looking man sits nearby reading Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows. There's a sweet, gentle humor to the whole tableau — the snowman's oddly domestic attentiveness balanced against the sheer absurdity of his presence in a child's bedroom. If the first issue drew you in, this 2015 Boom! Studios charmer makes a strong case for seeing the story through to its conclusion.
