Giant Days #40

Giant Days keeps delivering the charm in issue #40 from Boom! Box, and this cover sets the tone beautifully — a dark-haired, goth-styled young woman is swept dramatically off her feet by a swarm of pink hearts and a Cupid's arrow, her clenched fists and exasperated expression suggesting she's less than thrilled about the whole romance business. Max Sarin's expressive linework captures that perfect blend of comedy and feeling that makes this series so endearing. John Allison, Sarin, and colorist Whitney Cogar continue to make Giant Days one of the most consistently delightful slices-of-life in comics.
