Beauty
by Kerascoët, Hubert Boulard
Edgy classic-style fairytale, featuring a girl who is sad that she is ugly.
The most fascinating thing about this story, to me, was that the faerie wish-granter doesn't give her beauty itself, but the perception of being more beautiful than any other woman.
This becomes problematic, as you might guess.
I loved watching the choices of the creators here - panel to panel, Coddie would switch from her original "ugly" form to the more aesthetically pleasing version, depending on the gaze of that panel.
It was a very readable, riveting story - in keeping with the team's earlier work, [b: Miss Don't Touch Me|6136798|Miss Don't Touch Me, Vol. 1|Hubert|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1328754957s/6136798.jpg|6315495]. Thought-provoking. And a little disturbing.
