It ends up being a very quick read, but only if you're not allowing the power of each individual panel to hit you completely. There's a deep surrealistic residence to the page that feels like it's of being a different kind of gravity. There are some very sharp moments in it within the periphery of everything that feels like it's really leading somewhere they could be very interesting. Maleficent has the opportunity to explore the mythical nature of abstract malevolence with striking clarity. The creative team on this particular book seems to be moving it quite solidly in of the direction that would address, but very hard of evil as a concept. Read Full Review

It shows the dangers of tangling with Maleficent, but also shows a character who is unwilling to back down for good, in that of Prince Gavin. It remains to be see whether Maleficent and Prince Gavin will cross paths again, and what will be the outcome of that encounter if they do. Read Full Review
