psykobilliethekid's review against another edition

Great way to close off a side series and leave it with a possible incorporation to the main story line. I enjoyed the final battle between the two groups that were introduced and how the characters from the main story line were brought in to help near the end. The story would be very confusing to a person that has not read any of the main storyline and would think the ending had a deus ex machina twist but it completely isn't. If you're a fan of the other Grimm Fairy Tales stories Zenescope has produced so far, you will also enjoy this.

The continuing adventures of Hank and Gina. I was wondering if they would show up again and they do in this side story. I like how they added them into the main story line and had certain characters show up to hint at what was going on in the main-line story. I have a feeling this should go after the Grimm Fairy Tales Vol 1 since that's where we first see Hank and Gina, but there's also the mention of the Liddle House from Wonderland, which takes place much farther down the storyline. I'll get figured out where they go, but it was nice to be able to read about them once again. Only reason I'm keeping the 4 / 5 stars from my first reading is the artwork was a little too sketchy at times and didn't feel like it matched to well with the strong writing. But even with that, I think this should be a 4.5 / 5 stars since that's the only thing I can think of that is a downside with this volume.

This is such a strange GN! My biggest complaint is that it’s not as fleshed out as GN storylines usually are. It resolved the story a little too quickly for me.

I never thought that I would be this lukewarm about Grimm Fairy Tales. Maybe it's because I read this so soon after reading the Robyn Hood installment.
But I think it's mostly the artwork. Despite the cover illustration, the art put me off. I'm not sure why. It's far better than I can do, but there was something about it. Maybe it was just a result of reading it via Adobe.
The story line is okay, but it seems to lack the power that some of the other Grimm tales had.
This installment left me rather cold. Though, I do like what was done with Venus, and it is nice to see Sela kick butt.
