        The true story of Jolly Roger

        (and of the Rotten Sardine's Captain)

        by Mario Bellina, Antoine Vannucci

        Argh! Blistering Jellyfish! This is the story of Jolly Roger, the most terrifying pirate flag that has never waved in the gale-force winds of Caribbean. Jolly Roger lives on the top of the mainmast of the Rotten Sardine, the scariest and the stinking pirate ship that has never sailed the seas. Everyone is afraid of Jolly Roger and all the military, civil and pirate ships knows his terrible reputation. Although none can talk about it, on the Rotten Sardine Jolly Roger is not the most frightening one: the true terror of the seas is the tormented Captain Spit-in-the-eye, so called because of his spitting upwind. When he is not locked in his cabin with his eternal headache, he is always hungry for spoils and boarding. For this reason, also all the other pirates avoid him. Jolly Roger is clearly proud of his reputation but, like his crew, he would like to go on a bender with new friends. Finally, he finds a way to disguise himself and approach other pirate flags and everything goes smoothly until the captain finds it out. His anger affects all seas giving the order to attack any ship, vessel, or boat. His solitary strategy triggers a boomerang effect because all the military ships and also pirate’s ones start the Rotten Sardine pursuit. Once again, Jolly Roger will find a solution to save the ship and the crew too: when enemies arrive will not find the Captain Spit-in-the-eye ship, but the Captain Yellow Beard one, so called because of the colour of his beard that is phlegmy yellowish.

        Ugly Ducklying

        by Daniela Pareschi

        The fairy tale from Hans Christian Andersen still has a lot to say and Daniela Pareschi, with her perfect merge of classic taste, personality and irony, deliver us her take on this tale. Each illustration takes us a step further in the world of self-acknowledgment, letting us discover the bravery of the little egg-armoured explorer, as delicate as the colours used to depict him, yet persistent and determined. The tail remains faithful to the original, but this version helps to meditate on the self-ac- ceptance, even when we feel different from the others. Inner beauty is what makes us unique from the rest.

        Operation Cauliflower

        by Davide Predosin, Lucrece

        Casually forgotten during the umpteenth escape of the grungy circus in which he grew up, the child (or the boy) with cotton candy hair decided to travel the world in search of fortune. Soon, Bored Owl (Gufo Stufo), an owl unsatisfied with his life and with his hoot, and Minor Tiger, a puppy tiger, unable to enjoy hunting and laziness between meals, joined the child with cotton candy hair. When they arrived in the Mega-megalopolis, they meet some street children that bring them to a scientist called Squared Head. The luminary, considering the talent of the three guys, recruits them to block the mad plan of the Doc Geoff Lindemberg Lindemberg, a MTG (Mildly Tall Giant) who wants to destroy all the cauliflower in the world and bulldoze the globe. Our new heroes will therefore extricate themselves from the kidnapping of Dr. M – who works perpetually on the shrinking ray for mildly tall giant, unfinished due to his insane attachment to his mother – and from the sabotage of the Mega Anti-Cauliflower Spray of the Doc Geoff Lindemberg Lindemberg and of his gang of mildly tall giant bikers. A picaresque novel, absurd and partly wacky, Cauliflower Operation is the surreal and fantastic story of the redemption of grungy but willing outcasts. A story that moves between friendship, action, love and unexpected miraculous properties of cauliflowers.

A dream with a fresh breeze scent and sparkling with stars. A dream that becomes more vivid than reality, in which an elephant could choose the wings that most fit him and finally fly.

        Il ballo di Tok

        by Stella Nosella, Candia Castellani

        Pensate sia facile essere troppo troppo bello? Io sono Tok e sono un mostro. Un mostro bellissimo, per intenderci, e vi dirò di più: sono la perfezione per i canoni di audacia e spaventevolezza del mondo dei mostri. Dovrei essere felice di poter vivere in una società mostruosa che mi stima e mi considera un adone, direte voi, ma non è così. Io sono un mostro ma non sono affatto contento di esserlo.
