Bambi

Bambi (2005–present, Infinity Studios) reimagines the classic Disney fawn as a moody, noir-inspired protagonist navigating a gritty, anthropomorphic forest. Artist Young Ha Park brings a darkly detailed, cinematic style to this single-issue series, which stands out as a bold, creator-driven departure from the character's wholesome origins. This one-shot matters as a curious artifact of indie comics' willingness to recontextualize beloved icons for mature audiences.
