Monkeys Fighting Robots

We’re celebrating Image Comics‘ 25th anniversary all this week by breaking down the company’s all-time best 25 series. With so much diversity in its catalog, Image truly has comics for everyone. Check them out for yourself! And leave some of your own favorites in the comments.

This celebration was originally published as a five-part series, but has been consolidated here for your convenience. Thanks to writers Tony Wendel, Nick Enquist, Wes Messer, and Manny Gomez (who thought of and organized this project).

2. Strange Girl

One of the early Rick Remender series at Image, Strange Girl is one fascinating adventure. Bethany Black is one of those left behind at the end of days, but then she hears of a way to Heaven thanks to her demon pal Bloato. This way into Heaven sets up 18 issues of the ultimate road trip to escape the end of the world. Many ideas get explored in this series and keeping the reader constantly engaged. With artists such as Eric Nguyen, Jerome Opena, and Nick Stakal, amongst other fine artists, Strange Girl takes many surprising turns. This is one journey well worth taking, you won’t regret it.
