Grootlore

In this two-issue series from Fantagraphics, Peter Gullerud crafts a quiet, surreal exploration of a sentient tree creature's inner life and the strange, small wonders of its forest home. Launched in 1989, Grootlore offers a meditative, wordless visual journey that stands apart from typical superhero fare, focusing instead on mood, texture, and the gentle mystery of growth and decay. Gullerud's singular artistic voice makes this a distinctive, atmospheric entry in the world of alternative comics.
