Review: Grimm Fairy Tales: Dance of the Dead #3

Posted on by

There is no safe haven in the Shadowlands! As Mystere and Jasmine escape each threat they find another more deadly one waiting for them. Every danger they encounter seems to be pushing them deeper into the cursed land and towards a foreboding structure called The Tower…a place where legends say no one has ever returned from alive.

The cave of ice has more danger in it they initially believed in Grimm Fairy Tales: Dance of the Dead #3. With sheer dumb luck, they manage to escape the cave, finding themselves on the outskirts of a desert city. Yet, with more danger then they know on their tale. How long will they survive in the Shadowlands? Writer Anne Toole ups the action for this entry in the series.

The art by Marcio Abreu does a solid job of rendering the magic in this issue, along with bringing in the past with the sepia color scheme seen in previous issues.
