Poor Geppetto gets more than he bargained for when the marionette he carves from a stubborn piece of wood insults him and runs away into a world of trouble and mischief.
So is born Pinocchio, a puppet with an insatiable desire for adventure who ignores the advice of his woodcarver father, a talking cricket, and even his own blue-haired fairy to indulge in one shameful pleasure after another, with dire and hilarious results. A hundred and thirty years haven't dulled the guillotine wit or softened the moralistic punch of Collodi's wildly inventive masterpiece.
This companion volume to Pinocchio’s Forgotten Land features cover and title plate art by internationally acclaimed Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, and a new foreword by Scott Mignola.
