Strange Academy #16

Strange Academy's Winter Formal has arrived, and the cover captures it perfectly as a Polaroid snapshot — a student with a flaming skull-like head in a sharp blue suit poses proudly alongside a girl in a red dress and headphones, a black cat at their feet, while a gaggle of their fellow young sorcerers peek and crowd in from behind the purple curtains. The whole image radiates that charming mix of teenage normalcy and supernatural weirdness that makes this series so appealing. Humberto Ramos and Edgar Delgado bring their vibrant, expressive style to what might be the most delightfully offbeat school dance photo you'll ever see.
