"Chapter One: The Boxing Kangaroo." In the first new Ignatz comic of 2006, acclaimed rising talent Marco Corona transports us into the life of a woman called Miranda. Flashing back to her days as a child, she visits her sickly twin brother Riccardo at the seaside hospital with her wise and knowing Gramma, reflecting on and dreaming about her relationship with her loopy mother. As Miranda pads around her house, feeding her cats, Corona’s rich, elegantly stylized art seamlessly moves between past, present, dream and (in Riccardo’s case) hallucination, to weave the portrait of a unique woman living a unique story.
