About this Collection

This collection gathers the irreverent and boundary-pushing series from 1995, where classic works of literature and art are given a twisted, often humorous, and adult-oriented makeover. Published by NBM, it features a lineup of underground and alternative cartoonists reimagining iconic stories and characters with a modern, satirical edge. The volume showcases a unique blend of parody and homage, reflecting the edgy independent comics scene of the mid-1990s.
