Thanks Netgalley for a free e-copy. All thoughts are still my own.
This was a fun little book, filled with simple illustrations that reminded me of the ASDAF videos. It made me chuckle quiet a bit, through it's humourous retelling of some of the worlds most famous/popular stories, e.g. Goldilocks, Harry Potter, Robin Hood, and some original little scenes.
The stories were in short bursts, so it fit a lot in, which was good, but I wouldn't say this is something that would stay with me for a long time.
Pick it up, give it a go and enjoy! >(^_^)<

This is a hilarious collection of comics.
Each comic is about page long and has parodies of fairytales or popular characters. I loved them, and I laughed out loud many times. For example, Super Mario runs through tunnels, but he forgets that his actual job is to unclog drains. That makes fun of how the games have drifted so far from the original premise.
There were multiple stories from the story of Cinderella. In one, Cinderella goes to a pawn shop with her jewelry from the fairy godmother, and it turns into bugs after midnight. Another one makes fun of the fact that Prince Charming doesn’t actually know what her face looks like.
Though there are references to kids stories, it isn’t a collection for children. It is a laugh-out-loud collection of comics.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
