Eureka Graphic Novel

In the early 1990s, Italian publisher Editoriale Corno launched the Eureka Graphic Novel series, a short-lived but ambitious line of just three oversized, square-bound issues. Each installment offered a self-contained, mature-themed story, showcasing the work of celebrated European artists and writers, with the series most notably featuring a haunting adaptation of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein by acclaimed Spanish artist Alfonso Font. Though its run was brief, the series stands as a distinctive artifact of Corno’s later, more experimental period, bridging the gap between traditional Italian fumetti and the prestige-format graphic novel market.
