The Wipeout

Summary: An ordinary worker becomes the victim of omens and nightmare
Review: The Wipeout by Francesca Ghermandi is a bizarrely surreal allegorical graphic novel about bitter cross-purposes, manipulations, selfish desires, and overwhelmingly guilt-ridden nightmares. An ordinary worker becomes the victim of omens and nightmares in which he dreams of murder, and paranoia wracks him beyond the limits of sanity, yet he is being manipulated by a far more ruthless presence in this twisted parable. Highly recommended reading and drawn with exaggerated caricatures that resemble simple shapes more than human beings, The Wipeout includes adult language and subject matter within the context of visual and conceptual metaphor.

Summary: Dazzling!
Review: What a striking, memorable creation. Beautifully printed, bizarre, surreal, but strangely endearing too. Francesca Ghermandi's mental landscape will probably yield brilliant work for many years to come. Watch this space!
