This paper examines Winshluss’s 2008 graphic novel Pinocchio , a subversive reimagining of Carlo Collodi’s classic tale.

This analysis explores how the graphic novel utilizes the visual language of comics—specifically the interplay between black-and-white contrast and the anthropomorphic design of characters—to critique contemporary issues such as corporate greed, the criminalization of the working class, and the failure of moral redemption narratives.
