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).
1. Head Lopper
Writer and Artist Andrew MacLean unleashes the wonder of Norgal a.k.a. The Head Lopper on the universe in grand style. It’s classic high fantasy with a twist as it has a wicked sense of humor that makes this comic special. Put it like this, Norgal’s traveling companion is the head of Agatha Blue Witch, when a head is your companion, it can only get weirder from there. MacLean keeps it weird though and manages to keep you hooked with each issue. The art is fantastic throughout and as the story develops, you can’t help but adore this new realm of adventure. It’s high fantasy with a dash of wicked comedy, Head Lopper is a tale not to be missed.
