Who is Aahz?

Origin Aahz is a demon (dimensional traveler) from the dimension of Perv. A wizard, he lost his magical powers thanks to a practical joke his old friend and fellow mage Garkin planned to pull on him, spoiled only by Garkin's unexpected assassination. So Aahz teamed up with Garkin's apprentice, Skeeve , to solve the mystery of Garkin's murder, forming what would evolve into a long-term partnership. Creation Aahz and Skeeve first appeared in Robert Asprin's humorous fantasy novel "Another Fine Myth" , the first of what became the long-running Myth Adventures series. WaRP Graphics later adapted the first novel into comics under the title Myth Adventures , with art by Phil Foglio . A run of additional issues providing an original tale set between the first and second novels followed, with Jim Valentino taking over art chores. Moving to Apple Comics, the series changed title and adapted the second novel, Myth Conceptions . Starblaze Donning gathered the first novel adaptations (but not the bridging story) into graphic novels , which have recently been reprinted by Studio Foglio / Airship Entertainment .
