Squeak the Mouse

A gleefully unhinged parody of the classic cat-and-mouse cartoon, Squeak the Mouse was created by Italian cartoonist Massimo Mattioli for Catalan Communications in 1989. This single-issue comic pushes slapstick violence to absurd, grotesque extremes, turning the familiar chase into a surreal and darkly hilarious spectacle. It stands as a cult landmark of underground-style European humor, showcasing Mattioli's distinctive, energetic art and his talent for subverting childhood icons with adult irreverence.
