Butterscotch: The Flavor of the Invisible

Over three issues in 1990–1991, Fantagraphics published Butterscotch: The Flavor of the Invisible, a brief but distinctive series pairing Milo Manara’s lush, expressive artwork with scripts co-written by Tom Leighton. The title hints at a surreal, sensory exploration—Manara’s signature style lending a dreamlike, sensual quality to the narrative. Though short-lived, it stands as a curious, creator-driven artifact from an era when the publisher championed unconventional, adult-oriented comics.
