Tales of Jerry

A short-lived but fondly remembered series from Hacienda International, Tales of Jerry ran for eight issues between 1985 and 1991. The book centered on the adventures of its titular character, a resourceful young man navigating a world of everyday challenges and occasional fantasy. While the creative team shifted over its run, the series is most closely associated with writer and artist Jerry Ordway, whose warm, expressive style gave the book its consistent heart. Tales of Jerry remains a charming artifact of mid-to-late-80s independent comics, offering a gentle, character-driven alternative to the era's more bombastic superhero fare.
