12 Days of Classic Comics Christmas - Day 3
The countdown of favorite short-run comics continues! See what other people picked here:

and check out my pick under the cut:
10. Rima the Jungle Girl
(7 issues, 1974-1975)
The stories by Robert Kanigher are solid but not revolutionary. What really made this book was the exquisite artwork: Nestor Redondo knocked it out of the park with the ethereally beautiful Rima and the lush rainforest she dwells in. Likewise, the backup strip -- the incongruous "Space Voyagers" -- featured trippy, hallucinogenic visuals by Alex Nino. Wrap it all up in gorgeous covers by Joe Kubert, and you've got a master class in comics illustration.
