The Wizerd 1

Nerdist Best Comics of 2020

The Wizerd and the Potion of Dreams packs humor, heart, and heaps of distractions into a fantasy adventure sure to please any adventurer out there!

Adventure awaits! A quest is coming! Excitement envelopes all! ...And it’s disturbing a reclusive young wizerd’s peace and quiet!

A garden-tending wizerd is dragged into the adventuring life by a small warrior princess, as they seek the ingredients of a wish-granting potion. (The warrior princesses wish? To get big and strong — and hunky! — really hunky!) Thanks to ransacking goblins, a too-noble knight, an evil wych, and the warrior’s endless appetite, securing the potion ingredients won’t be as quick or as simple as the wizerd had hoped!
