Eisner Award-winning writer SKOTTIE YOUNG (MIDDLEWEST, TWIG, THE ME YOU LOVE IN THE DARK) and artist BRETT BEAN (Marvel's Rocket & Groot) bring back the
hit comic I HATE FAIRYLAND for an all-new ONGOING SERIES!
Everyone's favorite green-haired, axecrazed maniac returns in this Deadpool meets Alice In Wonderlandadventure! Gert is all grown up and living in the real world. Times are tough, and the only job she's qualified for has her trying to find her way back to the place she hates the most...Fairyland.
‘I Hate Fairyland' Vol.2 #1 picks up right where the series left off with the same over-the-top kinetic gruesome energy and fun, with a sharper edge dipping into the reality of what extended trauma can do to a person. Perfect jumping on spot for those both familiar and not as familiar with the series as it begins a whole new adventure that sees Gert destined to return to the place she hates the most.

I Hate Fairyland #1 is exactly what you'd expect going into it. It's just insane violence with a slight offensive nature about it all. It does a solid job of setting up what's to come while catching up new readers. It's cathartic violent fun wrapped up in a cute beat up package that'll give you the finger. Read Full Review
'I Hate Fairyland' is meant to be gruesome fun which fans have been waiting for in this sequel but there lie some dark sad truths about the parallels of Gert's journey, albeit a fantasy, with the traumas suffered by people in the real world. Intentionally or not, Skottie Young has created a satire that cuts to the bone. As for fans of Gert, this is the continuation of her story that is ready to take off once again and shouldn't be missed. Read Full Review
I Hate Fairyland #1 delivers everything it sets out to. Loaded with character, fans of Gert's adventures should have plenty to look forward to as this series continues. Read Full Review
A solid start for the new series then, but for me, it doesn't quite capture the same magic of the original – at least not yet. That said, there's a huge amount of twisted, day-glo fun to be had here, and fans of the original series will be over the fluffing moon about the return to this crazy fairytale world.

Filled with pastel art and unhinged gore, I Hate Fairyland has the kind of aesthetic that feasts the eyes while making you nauseous. Read Full Review
This is drawn by Brett Bean rather than Skottie Young, but Bean matches the style adeptly.
Gert does to Karens what we all want to do to Karens.
