Sergio Aragonés Groo the Wanderer #21

Sergio Aragonés's scruffy barbarian Groo finds himself in a genuinely precarious spot on this November 1986 cover — completely engulfed by an enormous, spiny yellow sea creature whose toothy grin suggests it considers Groo a fine catch, while our wide-eyed hero dangles helplessly, tongue lolling, sword uselessly in hand. Aragonés's cover linework crackles with that signature manic energy, packing every inch with gloriously ridiculous detail. Inside, the full creative team — Aragonés, Mark Evanier, colorist Tom Luth, and letterer Stan Sakai — delivers "Groo and the Witches of Brujas," promising the kind of cheerful chaos only this wanderer can inspire.
