The shape of it
The shape of this universe.
Spinning out of Mike Cavallaro's Nico Bravo series, Eowulf is a fast, funny, wisecracking fantasy graphic-novel line starring an instantly iconic new heroine: Eowulf Wegmund, a descendant of the legendary monster-hunter Beowulf. Between interdimensional monster-fighting and the tedium of suburban New Jersey middle school, Eowulf keeps stumbling into resurfacing supervillains, vanishing monster movie-stars and stolen doomsday artefacts, forced each time to team up with unlikely allies and dig up pasts that would rather stay buried. Big-hearted and irreverent, with wild worlds and a heroine easy to root for, it channels the humour and momentum of the best middle-grade adventure comics while standing entirely on its own.
A wisecracking descendant of Beowulf juggles interdimensional monster-fighting and middle school in a fast, funny fantasy graphic-novel series spun off from Nico Bravo.
