Eight hand drawn and photo-fummetti stories in styles spanning the years 1897-2027. Wilhemina the wild waif, abandoned in various far-away forests by random negligent moms, and one totally screwy mad scientist, grows to adulthood never having seen another human being — or clothing! That is, until her bucolic, idyllic, idiosyncratic, existence hurls this savage daughter into the modern world. Cabarga has drawn four comics stories spoofing such classics as The Yellow Kid, Betty Boop, Anime, and 60s psychedelic European comics, with four “fumetti” or photo-comics. They include a spurious 1924 German silent film, an improbable 1960s TV sitcom, an alleged documentary, and a sci-fi fantasy about a Wild Female Cyborg called Wilderella who conquers the world in her “birthday suit!”
