Red Agent kicks us off with ‘Safehouse’ It’s a short story, but it continues the problems that she has been having, and is quite action packed. I thought the ending was a little ‘nuke the fridge’ but nevertheless, I liked the leading ending we got. There is a good amount action, magic and intrigue!
Belle: Liberty gives us some good old fashion monster hunting next. It’s pretty much all monster fighting, with Candlestick in support. The creepy figure watching is interesting – there does seem to be a lot of those about!
Following on from her latest mini-series Robyn is back in ‘Pro Bono’ taking ona task of finding a missing kid. This was interesting as we know Robyn is having some problems and we get a closer look at those behind it all. We still haven’t got any ‘why’s yet though! I did enjoy the fight scene.
From the Grimm Universe to the Grimm Tales of Terror in the next story and this looks to be a build up to a later story. I really enjoyed it though – a good origin, with some excellent art. I wonder where it will lead, but I bet it will be gruesome! (another area I was unaware of the myths around too!)
Finally a nice demon fighting story from Mystere in “With A Little Help From My Friends”. I like that Mystere is still learning about her powers and the way this one was fought, it made sense. Talking of sense, this gives a nice sense of direction!
A good taste of what is to come from the Grimm Universe!
