This was pretty much an ok collection of fairy tales with X-Men characters recast in the role of fairy tale characters. I particularly liked "The Peach Boy," and I thought "To Die in Dreams" had a nice poignant touch to it. The tale featuring Rogue seemed to have a nice build up, then seemed rushed to the end. Overall, a nice, quick, entertaining read, but this is a volume to borrow if you can. Nice, but not great. There is a series of Marvel Fairy Tales, and I may try to find others, but I am keeping the expectations light. ( )

Okay, fairy tales these are, but they are X-Men tales only very tangentially. I don't know if I can really be bothered to write an analysis. The New Orleans story was my favorite, even though it took a story in which Rogue & Emma Frost were main characters and somehow made some nigh-nameless (male) detective the hero and main actor in the story.

Enjoyable enough, but skip-able. ( )

A nice idea at first, but for me mixing such good characters with japanese pop culture is just a bad bad idea... I thought it was about some Hans Christian Andersen sort of fairy tales and not some japanese ancient legend and I'm not really into it. The art from the cover is very beautiful, but inside it reminds me a lot of the manga style. ( )

While this was a good book, it wasn't as good as the Spider-man fairy tales so I was a little bit disappointed. These stories did not necessarily tie in as well with the comic book characters original stories, and several of them were also lesser known fairy tales. However they were still entertaining and interesting and worth reading. ( )
