Frightful Fairytales by Dame Darcy

5.0

As most people know, I love fairy tales. I was in high school when I literally stumbled upon Dame Darcy's website while trying to entertain my little cousin with dress up games online. Dame Darcy's site had a link to "play dress up" with her characters of Meatcake, a highly interesting comic book that's not recommended for children. I clung to her website as any goth-like outsider would. When I went to buy her comics, the man at the register directed me to her Frightful Fairy tales. It was love at first sight. It's not the retelling of stories that we know, it's completely new stories that the lovely Dame Darcy has not only made up inside of her head, but she's also drawn out all the pictures. A few months later, she was at that same comic bookstore, signing autographs. She's a lovely woman whose imagination and flair is better than most! I highly recommend this to anyone... Who has a high threshold for the weird. These stories don't all have happy endings... You've been warned.
