Mamo #1 (Raw VF/NM) - BOOM! Box (Sas Milledge Main Cover A, Key Issue)

Add a enchanting, whimsical fantasy debut issue to your inventory with Mamo #1, published by BOOM! Box (an imprint of BOOM! Studios)! Written, illustrated, and cover-designed by Australian cartoonist Sas Milledge (The Lost Carnival), this 5-issue miniseries delivers a magical Studio Ghibli-esque tale of witchcraft, family legacy, and natural spirits.

The upper trade dress features the BOOM! BOX logo box in the top-left corner, creator attribution Sas Milledge across the top center, and issue marker No. 1 in the upper-right corner. The brush-script red title logo Mamo rests boldly across the upper foliage.

The lush cover artwork—crafted by Sas Milledge—depicts young witch Orla and her companion Jo climbing among the sprawling, reddish branches of a flowering tree alongside a black cat, framed by soft pastel greens, blues, and yellow blossoms.

The story follows Orla, a young witch who returns to her hometown of Hallowell following the death of her grandmother—the town's former head witch, Mamo. With Mamo gone without properly passing on her mantle, chaotic magic and untamed fae spirits begin disrupting the town. Joined by local girl Jo, Orla must embark on a journey to guide Mamo's unquiet spirit to rest and restore balance to the land.

This unslabbed raw comic issue is in top-tier collectible condition (estimated VF/NM 9.0 or better), with sharp edges, a clean spine, and vibrant color tones—making it an essential pickup for fans of Sas Milledge, BOOM! Box, indie fantasy comics, and modern key issues.
