This article is about the comic book. For the classic stories see [[Grimm's Fairy Tales]] |
|||
'''''Grimm Fairy Tales''''' is a [[Horror fiction|horror]] [[comic book]] series by [[Zenescope Entertainment]] that presents classic [[fairy tales]], albeit with modern twists or expanded plots. It began publication in June [[2005 in comics|2005]]. |
|||
==Summary== |
|||
Each issue of ''Grimm Fairy Tales'' has two parts: a frame story and a fairy tale. The frame story revolves around Dr. Sela Mathers, a Doctor/Professor of Literature who has been given the ability to help people by showing them fairy tales with a lesson about their life. She struggles with the fact that people ignore her advice and ruin their lives anyway, and begins using her ability to dispense justice instead (see issue #15 "The Three Little Pigs"). Sela's nemesis is Belinda, who has the same ability as Sela but uses it for evil. |
|||
The other portion of the story is a twisted version of a classic fairy tale. The fairy tales are often violent and end in depressing ways, warning the readers to change their lives or suffer a similar (sometimes, worse) fate. |

==Spin-offs and miniseries== |
|||
Starting in May [[2007 in comics|2007]], a ''Grimm Fairy Tales'' [[Spin-off (media)|spin-off]] and [[limited series]] called ''Return to Wonderland'' debuted. Written by Raven Gregory, the series tells the tale of ''[[Alice Liddle]]'', the heroine of ''[[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]'', and her teenage daughter, Calie Liddle (an anagram of "[[Alice (given name)|Alice]]").<ref>[http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=98787 Raven Gregory on ''Return to Wonderland''], [[Newsarama]], January 24, 2007</ref> |
|||
Alice is no longer the little girl who fell down the rabbit hole and discovered Wonderland. Now an adult, she once tried to commit suicide by slitting her wrists. Mentally disturbed and in a dream-like state, her only link to reality is the disturbing white rabbit that she clings to. |
|||
Calie, not wanting to deal with her mother's mental illness, is now a substance-abusing, alcoholic, promiscuous party girl. The series will deal with the entire Liddle family, Alice's childhood, and Calie venturing into a darker and more frightening Wonderland than the one her mother knows. |
|||
Confirmed characters for Return to Wonderland are the [[Queen of Hearts (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)|Queen of Hearts]], the [[Mad Hatter]],<ref>[http://comicbookresources.com/?page=preview&id=230&disp=table Tales From Wonderland: The Mad Hatter], [[Comic Book Resources]]</ref> the [[Caterpillar (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)|Caterpillar]], the Carpenter, the Walrus, [[Tweedledee]], [[Tweedledum]], the [[Cheshire Cat]], the [[Jabberwocky]], the March Hare, and the Cook. |
|||
''Tales From Wonderland'', a three part prequel to the Return to Wonderland series, was released in 2008, which included The Queen of Hearts, Alice, and The Mad Hatter, followed in June by #0 of ''Beyond Wonderland'', the sequel to ''Return to Wonderland''.<ref>[http://zenescope.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?p=4140#4140 zenescope.com ~ View topic - Zenescope Announces It's 2008 Schedule]</ref><ref>[http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=153334 Going ''Beyond Wonderland'' with Raven Gregory], [[Newsarama]], April 11, 2008</ref> The series is expected to return for a third time in the summer of 2009 with another sequel ''Escape from Wonderland'' and ''Tales From Wonderland'' Series 2, which includes The [[Cheshire Cat]], The [[Red Queen]], [[Tweedledum and Tweedledee]], and The [[Mad Hatter]] #2. |
|||
Zenescope has now released a 2009 Annual For Wonderland entitled "The House of Liddle". As well as the upcoming release of ''Escape From Wonderland'', which continues where ''Beyond Wonderland'' left off, with Callie's adventures in Wonderland. |
