The star is for the artwork. The story was remarkably underwhelming, and the kiss it's always marketed with was just a bit gross? I mean, sleeping beauty always is, but it's usually at least a chaste "true love's kiss", not "she kissed her long and hard" when the girl is. Still asleep. And coming from Neil Gaiman it just felt a bit "now enters the sexy lesbians to kiss for us". Blegh
