A new issue from Zenescope Entertainment this week with Grimm Fairy Tales #39 - Through Death And After.
When a horrific tragedy casts a shadow over the lives of those at Arcane Acre, Winter, Carmen and Skye set off to peel back the layers of the puzzling circumstances surrounding this mystery. But what they find is much worse than they could have imagined, and these heroes now realize they may have bitten off more than they could chew--especially when what they discover, bites back!

Dreams in comics often mean something more1. And in this case it looks to be a harbinger to what is coming. It’s quite a creepy one, and Skye is having some series problems with hers. Featuring a dark version of herself, and a dark future.
Into the now, and it looks like the location of the problem for Skye is correct as a limo-based attack seems to promise something darker. Skye meanwhile is unaware, although the Rizz-based conversation is something I can relate to!
Following up this, there is some vampire-based action, with some excellent action and hints towards what we can expect going forward. There is an excellent, expected, cameo at the end, and it finishes the issue with aplomb.
I liked the gritty styled art in this issue and it fits nicely with the story and the style of everything being told. The vampires look pretty evil and have an excellent manner about them that fits the location and the story being told.
I’ll be interested to see where this leads…

Not mine, they just feature dogs with orange eyebrows.
