Grrl Scouts: Stone Ghost #1

Jim Mahfood's singular vision is on full display in this 2021 Image Comics series opener, where a blue-haired young woman with striking butterfly wings strikes a dynamic pose amid a swirl of arrows, abstract shapes, and a wide-eyed little skull figure at her side. The title logo itself — all teeth and attitude — perfectly sets the tone for what looks to be a wonderfully weird, punk-inflected story. With Mahfood handling every creative role from writing to colors, Grrl Scouts: Stone Ghost #1 has the feel of a true artistic statement right from the cover.
