Baard

A quiet, two-issue series from AB Books, Baard is a spare, character-driven comic from 1992 that follows the titular figure through a stark, introspective landscape. Most closely associated with artist Chris Dreier, the series matters as a compact, early example of the independent, creator-owned work that defined the small-press scene of the era. Its brief run offers a focused, meditative glimpse into a single, unusual sensibility.
