Sergio Aragonés Groo the Wanderer #16

This June 1986 Epic Comics/Marvel issue treats readers to one of Sergio Aragonés's most delightfully unhinged cover compositions: an extreme close-up of Groo's massive, gap-toothed grin fills nearly the entire frame, his crossed eyes fixed on a tiny fly perched right on the end of his enormous nose, while a gleaming sword blade slides in from the left. It's a perfectly absurd snapshot of the wanderer's blissfully oblivious charm, rendered with Aragonés's razor-sharp cartooning in both pencils and inks. With a story titled "Groo and the Shipyard," you can already sense the cheerful nautical catastrophe that awaits inside.
