Super Magic Forest

by Ansis Puriņš

Twit Leaf the Elf's day job is picking berries in the Magic Forest, deep within a busy national state park. He'd rather be a mighty warrior elf like his grandpa was. One day he wanders into the strange and mysterious "picnic area" finding a magic glowing box that the evil humans left behind (it's just a kid's Nintendo). Suddenly he's tasked with the heroic quest he always wanted! He is to return the magic talisman to the shadowy "lost and found" chamber which is located in the visitor center by the water fountain.

A charming fantasy. The art style is right up my alley-characters with a childlike innocence placed in a richly detailed and expansive world. I admire the exuberance of invention. The story continues to grow and expand up to the end, with nearly every page introducing a new character, each with their own hilarious lore. Invention stacked on invention, up to the psychedelic ending-where the problem is stamped out, the world set right, and the fantastic utopia restored.

This book is cartooning at its most essential. Every character design, color choice and piece of dialogue feels simultaneously effortless and labored over in the best way.

Some comics arrive so fully formed it feels as if it’s always existed in this perfect form. Highly recommend.

Surrealist fable about a quest! Ripe with wonder.

A strange mix of fantasy creatures with demented Hanna Barbara sensibilities. Exactly my jam!
