Once Upon a Dream: A Twisted Tale #2

Rossella Gentile's cover for this second volume of Disney's manga-style A Twisted Tale adaptation sets an immediately gripping tone: a blonde young woman in a flowing pink-and-red gown clutches a dagger amid swirling tarot cards, while an enormous, glowing-eyed green presence looms ominously behind her. The cover's tagline — "What if the Sleeping Beauty never woke up?" — frames the premise with just enough dread to make this Panini Manga release irresistible to fairy-tale fans. With Gentile handling pencils, inks, and colors throughout, the artwork delivers a beautifully cohesive dark-fantasy aesthetic that feels right at home in 2025's wave of reimagined Disney stories.
