Sergio Aragonés Groo the Wanderer #40

There's a tender side to the world's most disaster-prone wanderer — this June 1988 Epic Comics issue features a cover by Sergio Aragonés showing Groo, swords strapped to his back and grin stretched wide, cradling a spotted animal companion with hearts floating overhead in a surprisingly sweet moment. It's a charming contrast to the chaos Groo typically leaves in his wake, and the warmth Aragonés brings to these characters shines through even in a single image. With the full creative team of Aragonés, Mark Evanier, colorist Tom Luth, and letterer Stan Sakai on board for "The Glass Carafe," this is the series firing on all cylinders.
