Giant Days #5

Against a warm orange background, a young woman sits perched atop a speaker cabinet, eyes closed and one hand raised in bliss as music notes drift around her — it's a quietly perfect image capturing the feeling that a great song can make the whole world disappear. Lissa Treiman's cover art for Giant Days #5 has a wonderful lightness to it, matching the series' reputation for charm and wit. John Allison, Treiman, and colorist Whitney Cogar continue their Boom! Box collaboration here, and if this cover is any indication, issue five keeps the series' distinct warmth firmly intact.
