Description

A raucous celebration of queer joy and magical girl mayhem, Farewell to Babes is the third and final graphic novel in the Grand Slam Romance series.

In Grand Slam Romance: Farewell to Babes, softball’s favourite throuple, Mickey, Astra, and Wolfgang have finally given in to their undeniable attraction. But is it true love or just temporary lust?

Wolfgang’s ready to go public with the relationship, Mickey’s still sorting out their feelings, and Astra has conveniently peaced out on a mysterious eurotrip that she neglected to inform her partners about. Between Berlin and Belle City, magic and havoc follow these lovebirds wherever they go—but in pursuit of love, they’re going to swing for the fences.

With the supercharged doses of magic and mayhem from creative power-couple Ollie Hicks and Emma Oosterhous, the Grand Slam Romance trilogy comes to a heartfelt and hilarious conclusion!
