Two new digital comics from Zenescope reviewed here!
Under orders from the Emerald Council, Glinda is forced to take on an apprentice! But when presented with a plethora of eager magical candidates at Oz’s renowned Abraxas Academy, why does the most powerful witch in Oz have her eye on the sharp-tongued underachiever, Adraste?
This one-shot is a nice jumping on point for Tales of Oz where we get a good look at the magic and magical races of Oz. There are some hat-tips to Constantine here as well (It’s not even subtle!) But we get a good look at the apprentices of Oz and the teachers behind them. It’s quite a soft story, but enjoyable!
Grimm Fairy Tales: Cinderella #2: Age of Darkness
Tasked with killing Hades, the only living god, Cindy sets out on a mission that will either bring her to the top of the Dark Horde… or condemn her to death. Little does she know that Hades, ever the trickster, has his own agenda against the Horde.
This sure isn’t the Cinderella you remember as a kid!
*AGE OF DARKNESS Tie-in
Part two of this link in to Age Of Darkness, this issue concentrates on Hades, with Cinderella looking in the wrong place for him! It’s quite amusing and worrying as Cinderella is an amusing character and things are not looking good for her! Hades comes across as all powerful and full of rage as he attempts to get his revenge. Cinderella’s plan seems stupid and hopeless….
