Don't Call Me Magical Girl - I'm OOXX

In this short, sharp 2020–2021 series from Chatto Chatto, a magical girl finds herself unceremoniously aged out of her role and into a mundane, less-than-magical life. Over five issues, the comic skewers genre tropes with a dry, knowing wit, exploring what happens when youthful heroics give way to adult disillusionment. The series is most associated with its creator's clear-eyed, character-driven take on the magical girl archetype, making it a sly, resonant read for fans of the genre's darker deconstructions.
