About the series
Jen Van Meter’s Hopeless Savages made its debut as a Free Comic Book Day special from Oni Press, introducing readers to the chaotic, punk-rock family of former band members and their four creatively named children. Illustrated by Christine Norrie and Chynna Clugston-Major, the single issue sets the tone for a series that blends slice-of-life comedy with counterculture sensibilities, celebrating individuality and messy family dynamics. Though brief, this entry offers a lively snapshot of the Savages’ world, establishing the quirky, heartfelt voice that would define the series’ ongoing run.
