Cursed Pirate Girl’s loyal companion Pepper Dice reveals that there’s still time to bring back her father, the Dread Pirate Captain Douglas! If she can escape the Sea King’s Palace with The Bright Star, will she be bold enough to enter The Devil’s Cave in the hope of bringing her father back?

Bastian combines a keen sense of story and the unique art style reminiscent of 15th century engravings, making this a book not to miss.

Since then, Cursed Pirate Girl’s wild and thrilling adventures have continued in the Cursed Pirate Girl graphic novel and special issue Cursed Pirate Girl 2015 Annual, garnering widespread acclaim for their intricately detailed illustrations evocative of Arthur Rackham and Gustave Dore’s fairy tale depictions.
CURSED PIRATE GIRL: MALODIOUS MUTINY HC will be available in comic shops September 18, 2024 and available in bookstores everywhere September 24, 2024. Digital copies can be purchased from content providers, including Kindle, iBooks, and Google Play.
