Sissi Novelas Graficas #208
"María José y el puma" is a standout entry in the Sissi Novelas Gráficas series, offering a quiet, charming tale of youthful romance and self-discovery. Set against the backdrop of a small town’s familiar café, the story follows Ginny and David as they playfully imagine grand romantic gestures—duck orange and champagne, designer dresses, exotic flowers—only to find that real connection lies in the simple, honest moments. The expressive graytone artwork by an uncredited colorist enhances the story’s delicate balance of whimsy and sincerity, while Edmond Fernández Ripoll’s cover captures the dreamy, intimate mood of the tale.
In "María José y el puma," Jo finds herself in the quiet coastal town of Cadaqués, where an unexpected encounter with a puma sets her on edge. Though she’s eager to enjoy her visit with Lucila, her warnings about the wild animal fall on skeptical ears. Written by J. Delgado and brought to life with vivid detail by Leandro Blasco, this brief, tense tale unfolds in the sun-drenched streets and shadows of a Spanish seaside village.
In the quiet aftermath of a burning granary, Jane faces ruin as her crops are gone and time runs short to save "Las dos rosas." Just as despair sets in, a mysterious voice whispers not to give up—offering a glimmer in the dark, though its source remains unknown.
In "Dos pasean por las nubes," Ginny and David spin a delicate fantasy of elegant dinners and grand gestures, pretending their local bar is a Parisian salon and their simple meals are haute cuisine. As Ginny fakes a Dior gown and David offers violets as orchids, their playful escapism begins to blur with doubt—especially when her mother calls it all foolish. But when David’s quiet proposal cuts through the daydream, Ginny discovers that the most magical moments aren’t in the clouds, but in the truth of what’s real.
