Pinocchio #[nn]

This striking 2011 hardcover from Last Gasp presents Winshluss's darkly reimagined take on the wooden boy, framed by an intricate cover design of interlocking gears, serpents, and ornate floral motifs. At its center, a silhouetted Pinocchio — unmistakable long nose and all — stands alone on a moonlit hill, rendered in a beautifully detailed vignette that blends fairy-tale wonder with something decidedly more mechanical and ominous. Published by Requins Marteaux and brought stateside by Last Gasp, this handsome volume announces itself as a graphic work with serious artistic ambition.
