Why it's Hot:
- Premiere issue of the series by Zenescope with adult versions of classic fairy tales
- White Pages
Synopsis:
This debut issue from Zenescope adapts *Little Red Riding Hood* with dark and mature themes, exploring the connection between sex and violence. The werewolf embodies lust and primal desire, while Red symbolizes innocence and purity. A modern parallel is drawn as a young girl questions losing her virginity to a pushy boyfriend, only to find lessons in the eerie similarities between her reality and the fairy tale’s outcome. The tale reconnects with the original Brothers Grimm message, rather than the watered-down versions known today.
