Curse Words #7

Charles Soule and Ryan Browne's wonderfully weird series rolls into its seventh issue with a cover that crackles with chaotic energy. Ryan Browne's art pits a massive, bare-chested red-skinned brute wielding a hammer against a white-bearded man in glasses who strains against a staff bristling with electric blue lightning — and a small, bewildered bird-like creature caught in the middle completes the gloriously absurd scene. If you've been looking for a comic that blends raw magical muscle with offbeat humor, Curse Words #7 makes a very strong case for itself.
