Season of the Roses

In 2025, Fantagraphics launched Season of the Roses, a limited series that reimagines the classic fairy tale "Snow White" through a dark, psychological lens. The debut issue, written and illustrated by a team of acclaimed independent creators, sets a brooding tone as it explores themes of vanity, obsession, and the corrosive nature of beauty. This series matters for its stark, atmospheric artwork and its willingness to subvert a familiar story into something unsettling and new.
