I've read Ice Cream Man and this was still surprisingly dark at times. However, Prince and Morazzo make a great team, and with Art Brut they've debuted a new series that's a classical art infused, fantasy, crime thriller that's a wild trip through reality and unreality. Utterly fascinating in style and content, The Winking Woman is a unique new work from a creative team that knows how to unsettle and engage in equal measure.

I really enjoyed this book and the art style, but I’m averse to too dark of themes and this one got just a touch too dark for me (but probably perfect for others!) — if you like Saga, this is a good one to read, too.
