The Bakers #1
In "Giant Step," Kyle Baker delivers a quietly powerful tale of childhood fear and unexpected wonder, as Lillian’s dread of monsters in the dark meets a father’s rational reassurance—until a moment arises that defies explanation. With all art and writing by Kyle Baker, the issue blends tender storytelling with a subtle, lingering mystery, all rendered in his distinctive, expressive style. The cover by Baker captures the story’s intimate, slightly eerie tone, drawing readers into a world where the line between imagination and something more is just a breath away.
When Lillian fears the monsters under her bed, Kyle tries to reassure her with logic—until a very real, very stubborn creature proves him wrong. In this playful, heartfelt four-page tale, the Baker family’s quiet night takes a whimsical turn as dad’s confidence is tested by a creature only his daughter believes in.
