Adult black & white graphic novel.
This is a relatively long book about Girl, a stripper, who makes a deal with a devil. The book opens with a scene of Girl buying some merchandise from "Cloven Hoof." Immediately after the visit to that special shop, Girl stops off at the Kat Kat club for some nude dancing. Afterward, Girl is fondled by one of her fellow strippers and her boss. A large amount of sexual activity occurs before Girl is able to eventually make the deal with the devil. In between (the buying of the merchandise and performing the ritual to make a deal), Girl wanders around in very skimpy revealing clothing, has men ejaculate onto her as she is attempting to leave a fast food restaurant, has an orgy in the back of a convertible along a city street, and in an alley, dances some more at the strip club, is fondled some more and finally, the ritual.
The sexy young woman asks for immortality in her current form. In return the devil/demon has some sexual fun with Girl. Girl will get what she wants, as long as she receives his "rapture" or finds a replacement. Girl must find a replacement (or offer herself up) every thirteen years, plus the first one, on the very next day. While playing with herself, the "camera" pulls back to reveal a man with a camera, who had been watching her. End chapter one.
The book includes four chapters. The second chapter sees Girl waking up next to that female stripper who had been fondling her earlier, a man burst into flames when he touched Girl without her consent (those with consent, apparently, do not burst into flames, that or they are demons), an orgy in the back of a car (yep, they were demons), some more dancing at the strip club, an introduction to an adult film producer who will lead her into that world, and the sacrifice of another. Chapter three ("The Pawn") sees some more orgies (for which Girl is paid for her services), some more strip dancing, wandering the streets in revealing clothing, and dreaming about filming an adult film. The fourth chapter is the last and so I'll just mention that some more of the same occur, plus . . .
Overall, the artwork is good, only slightly hindered by being black & white and the plot is, well, strange. The book includes exhibitism, voyeurism, devils/demons, orgies, lesbianism, etc.

Ho appena finito di leggere "Girl" di Kevin J. Taylor e devo dire che è stata una bellissima sorpresa. Il primo storico best-seller dell'autore fa esattamente quello che promette, e lo fa con un ritmo travolgente.
La protagonista, Girl, è un personaggio fantastico: una ballerina di striptease magnetica, fiera delle sue curve, amante del divertimento e mossa da una spiccata propensione per l'avventura. Ciò che rende la storia davvero intrigante, però, è il suo fascino per l'occulto. Quando la sua passione per l'esoterismo la porta a evocare dei demoni, la trama decolla: queste creature non sono solo il motore di situazioni decisamente spinte, piccanti e divertenti, ma rappresentano anche una minaccia reale e piuttosto pericolosa.
L'equilibrio tra la componente erotica/umoristica e la tensione horror della magia nera è gestito magistralmente. I disegni esaltano al massimo la sensualità di Girl e l'atmosfera dark-fantasy della storia.
Se cercate un fumetto audace, avventuroso e con quel pizzico di brivido esoterico che non guasta mai, "Girl" è assolutamente da recuperare.
