Sergio Aragonés Groo the Wanderer #82

Part three of "The Legend of Thaais" brings Sergio Aragonés's beloved wandering barbarian face-to-face with a sharp-eyed blonde woman on this 1991 Epic/Marvel cover — the two filling the frame in a tense, almost nose-to-nose standoff while weapons and shadowy figures crowd the background. Aragonés's instantly recognizable cartooning style is on full display, with Groo's bulging jaw and determined scowl playing off his companion's equally fierce expression. It's a fun, energetic snapshot of an ongoing four-part saga, with lettering by Stan Sakai and colors by Tom Luth rounding out the creative team.
