I'm not saying the whole "bring me her heart" thing was above-board or anything, but the Queen probably did the world a favor in eliminating Snow (well, trying to eliminate her). This take on the origins of the Wicked Stepmother in Snow White and the Seven Dwarves is an interesting one. While I'm not sure if it's supposed to be "cannon," I do find it fascinating that Valentino has given the Stepmother a backstory and a reason for being as cruel as she was.

The art, which was restricted in color and angular compared to the more rounded Disney characters, was not overly charming to me initially but grew on me as the book went on.Part of it was from the art style, I didn't really enjoy it and it often made the speech bubbles seem to be in the wrong spot. Disney’s New York Times best-selling Villains series comes to life in this graphic novel adaptation of the book that started it all in this tragic tale of love and loss, the untold story of Snow White’s Wicked Queen. Seller has stated it will dispatch the item within 1 working day upon receipt of cleared payment - opens in a new window or tab . Also, there was so much build-up, but once we reached the climax of the story (the part that most are familiar with based on the movie) everything sped up and it was over.

Mother Knows Best: A Tale of the Old Witch and The Odd Sisters: A Villains Book to be released in Summer 2019. Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH). The tale of the young princess, Snow White, and her evil stepmother, the Wicked Queen, is widely known-the Queen was jealous of the girl's beauty, and this jealousy culminated in the Queen's attempt on the sweet, naive girl's life.Because of this, I felt that the characters reacted in extremes at times, possibly heightened by the three color panels. Or does it have to do with a mysterious mirror, gifted to her upon her wedding and swirling with dark magic? I just find it out that a book that's intended to give a villain her own voice instead takes her agency. A great examination of how grief, mental health, and abuse can change who we are (note, I don't think those things absolve us for poor behavior).
