Ant #1 [2nd printing]

"Days Like This" introduces a quietly powerful coming-of-age story in Ant #1 (2nd printing), where an 8-year-old girl named Hanna channels her longing for agency into a secret dream: to become the hero Ant, a figure who, like her, is overlooked yet capable of great things. Written by Mario Gully and Matt Nixon and illustrated by Gully with inks by Peter Repovski and colors by Ramond Lee and Stefani Rennee, the issue captures Hanna’s quiet determination through her journal—its contents discovered by a boy who sees more than she realizes. The cover, also by Mario Gully, mirrors the story’s intimate tone with its subtle, evocative imagery.
