Four Eyes #1

Four Eyes #1 (2008) kicks off with a haunting, sun-drenched memory from the Great Depression: ten-year-old Enrico and his family at the beach, where a terrifying encounter with a fleeing father and a baby dragon in a sack sets the stage for a life forever changed. Written by Joe Kelly and illustrated by Max Fiumara—with cover art also by Fiumara—the issue lingers on the weight of loss and the quiet desperation of a boy trying to survive in a world where dragons aren’t myth. The story pulls back the curtain on a hidden arena where giant dragons fight to the death, and Enrico’s past begins to catch up with him.
