Junko Mizuno's Cinderalla, this uniquely styled artist's take on the classic fairy tale. Her delirious color illustrations, while displaying superflat cuteness, also incorporate elements of grotesquerie and politically sharp black humor. Her style has been described as "cute but deadly," and "grotesque-cute."
POWERPUFF GIRLS ON ACID!
Dad and the stepsisters are zombies, "Cinderalla"'s family runs a yakitori restaurant, and the sickly Prince is on permanent IV support! Mizuno turns this classic story about class, labor, and the social role of women on its head with a distinctly post-pop consciousness.
