Handsome Girl

In the mid-2000s, Egmont Ehapa published Handsome Girl, a nine-issue series that blends high school romance with a supernatural twist. The story follows a girl who, after a mysterious encounter, gains the ability to see the inner beauty of others—but only when they appear as their idealized, "handsome" selves. Written and drawn by a creative team known for their work in shojo-inspired manga, the series offers a lighthearted exploration of identity, perception, and teenage relationships. While a short-lived title, it stands out for its unique premise and its place in the European comics market's embrace of manga-influenced storytelling.
