2nd and later printings. Story and art by Junko Mizuno. Everyone knows the story of Hansel & Gretel. You all remember Hansel, the smart, squatty kid with a tuna can strapped over his mouth, lest his preternaturally loud voice make things crumble all around him. And of course, Gretel, the tall pink-haired schoolgirl in the sailor suit, striking down bullies with each blow of her handy bamboo practice sword. And if you don't remember the story going this way, rest assured you won't be able to forget Junko Mizuno's Hansel & Gretel! Softcover, 6-in. x 8-in., 152 pages, B&W. Mature Readers Cover price $15.95.

1st printing. By Junko Mizuno. Junko Mizuno's Cinderalla is this uniquely styled artist's take on the classic fairytale. Her delirious color illustrations, while displaying super-flat cuteness, also incorporate elements of grotesquerie and politically sharp black humor. Her style has been described as "cute-but-deadly" and "grotesque-cute." Dad and the stepsisters are zombies, "Cinderalla's" family runs a yakitori restaurant, and the sickly Prince is on permanent I-V support! Mizuno turns this classic story about class, labor, and the social role of women on its head with a distinctly post-pop, post-feminist consciousness. Softcover, 6-in. x 8-in., 120 pages, B&W. Mature Readers Cover price $15.95.
