A dark fantasy retelling of beauty and the beast. I had a lot of fun with this! The art is wonderful and the Beast is drawn just creepy enough - everyone being cursed as different creatures is fun too, as the all have different issues (clock man can’t talk etc). I am very partial to the two cat demon (?) maids? Super cute!

Love how everyone tells Belle she was in a cap situation. There’s nobody (except her) looking for excuses for her dad’s behavior. Beast is enough of a snarky jerk to be interesting without being a character I would hate. 

Looking forward to seeing where this series goes.
