The Pull Bag
I Hate Fairyland #5-6 Review

About this Episode
Welcome to the pull bags back issue classics
Join us as we talk about comics from yesteryear
from DC Marvel and more So open your ears to
hear our discussion of the older Continuities
as the back issue classics are also what's in
the pool bag. Hello and welcome to the final
Episode of the pull bag for a while folks. I
am TFG1 Mike. This is back issue classics episode
69 for back issue classics Joining me is comic
revolt Dan. Hello. Hey, how's it going? It's
going Yeah, folks. I I've been doing Comic podcasting
here inside the pull bag for four years now.
I Love doing this show. I love talking to everybody
and reviewing all the comics and everything else
but There's just a time where you just need to
put it on a break for a while, because, oh my
god. And I haven't actually been able to buy
comics in the last few months. I mean, I've had
stuff in my comixology that we've never gotten
to, and that kind of thing. And when I was buying
comics, I was buying comics to the effect of,
OK, I'm not going to read these now. I'm going
to save these from when I need something for
the show, which is fine. I have no problem with
that. I've never put the podcast this podcast
on a hiatus, but we're gonna go on a hiatus through
probably till the end of the year We might come
back and do something for Christmas if IDW IDW
last year did a bunch of Christmas They did a
whole five -week Christmas thing With various
holiday specials for their titles, so I might
end up doing that. I don't know yet But we are
here We are back to camp off the first six issues
of Image Comics' I Hate Fairyland. This episode
of The Pull Bag features endings and beginnings
because originally, apparently, I Hate Fairyland
was only gonna be a five -issue miniseries, and
of course, it's done so well that Image and Image
Comics and Scotty Young said, yay, we're gonna
do more of these, which is great for us, because
the story continues. So we're gonna talk about
issues five and six and I have never laughed
so hard in my entire life that I have the only
other time in the last four months that I've
laughed this hard is Reading this and watching
mad about you on DVD. Well, wow, that's probably
the only time those two entities will ever be
Combination. Yeah, I mean it's definitely it's
actually kind of cool doing these two together
because like you said we are seeing kind of the
conclusion of the first arc and then seeing kind
of Interesting when we get to the second issue
how it may or may not be changing I guess which
is really really cool. But yeah this yeah this
Issue I think this might be the best one so far
issue five, you know, it's the great culmination
to everything seeing this final showdown and
of these two characters that of you know, the
Queen and and seeing basically this all kind
of come to a head in this one up and one issue
and You mentioned that this was originally possibly
only gonna be a five issue any series and this
could have been a good place to end it but I'm
glad it's definitely continuing because By the
end of this it's like well, I guess this is going
to be something different moving forward I know
the the one complaint we had or the one now because
it does get somewhat repetitive But after this
issue, it seems like they're somewhat going in
a different direction Mean they this okay, so
part of the repetitive part was the narrators
guild. I don't think that's a bad thing I thought
I always thought that was pretty cool. No. Yeah,
I agree But part of the repetitive stuff was
constantly going to a different narrators guild
and they kind of do that here but they show varying
characters as Happy is going through her as they're
basically recapping happy's journey to get to
the key so they Scotty and his artists make it
look like each of these creatures, the owl, the
whale, you know, that they are the narrators.
He makes it look like that, even though that's
not who's narrating, because we'll find out later.
Before we get too far into it, I do want to bring
up the creative team. Obviously, story and art
is done by Scotty Young. Colors are done by Gene
Francis Bowie. I'm sorry if I mispronounced that
name. Nate Picos of Blambot is on lettering.
Uh, logo and design is done by Ryan Hughes and
the cover is done by Leslie Ann Green. And of
course, as we said, it's from Image and Image
is awesome. So we start issue five out with this
opening of, you know, Happy's journey to get
to the key. Um, that key's awfully bright. Wow.
Yeah, that's sure. And just to backtrack a little
bit regarding what you were saying with the narration
thing, I thought that was a great payoff to this
running gag that's been going since basically
the first issue. And yeah, so like being repetitive
isn't necessarily bad. I mean, it could be used
for great effect. And I think that is we saw
the payoff with it with it there. So but yeah,
now we get to see finally this key we've been
talking about since issue one. It feels like,
OK, so. What's actually gonna happen here? You
have, you know two kids that are You know one
that's obviously a kid and 37 year old in the
kid body and another one That's obviously a kid
one of them is gonna survive a weird situation
a common situation comics But weird in this since
it's two little kids, but uh, it that's what
kind of had me intrigued going into this Mm -hmm
and everybody You know so happy gets the key
And she basically says, this is so kiddie balls
-tastic. You know, a common thing we all say
all the time, you know? Yeah. It's part of everyone.
And that's the cool thing. And we've said this
for the last two podcasts that we've done these
two issue reviews here. Scotty coming up with
his own language to avail himself of having to
curse. Because these are not comics for kids,
folks. But the way that he writes them, the way
he writes in the language... It's just so funny.
It's just so interesting. Like I've never seen
a comic any kind of comic It doesn't matter what
it is do anything that he's doing in here as
far as the writing in the language of of Characters
acting out. Yeah, and then the lettering too
also kind of hammers at home because you can
you know when you're using those things like
You know Just gigantic letters and it really
accents that so oh absolutely. Yeah So she gets
the key all her friends including Queen Claudia
or Claudia Whatever come up to her and like here.
Just here you go. Here's here's the door go in
you'll you'll be home and We see the giant Sun
and this because the Sun's like what is because
the Sun is the actual narrator here With a smile
on her face happy was on and of course she interrupts
him, but just looking at that son That's a lot
of teeth for a son Hey kind of looks like he
could be the eater of worlds. Oh wait, this is
transformers or galactic. Yeah You'd have to
have a giant cloud fall. Oh, I'm sorry bad. We
data know what you're speaking of that. Yeah
bad fantastic for joke folks So she wants to
she can't Happy wants to say goodbye to her her
guide miss lady and the Queen's like no get to
the door now And I love that panel. We're happy.
He's like, what's that sound? Nothing. Just get
your sass through that door now. Oh, I'm not
sure what's happening. This isn't part of the
story. And the Queen's like... Keep narrating
you useless ball of hot air tell her she's going
through that door Yeah, so a lot of people have
issues with the narrator it must be They're always
in the way. Yeah, it's like issues with the narrator
just like wow So they try to get her into the
door and a giant dragon appears I do actually
really like how he draws this dragon. It's Pretty
badass. Again, it fits in this world, but it's
still kind of, you know, menacing. The close
-up on the dragon's face, like right after it
cracks through the ground, and they say, holy
mother... when he's breathing the fire. The whole
dragon design that Scottie used, I don't know
if he did this intentionally, he probably didn't,
but it reminds me of when Mad Madam Mim turned
into a dragon in The Sword and the Stone from
Disney. Yeah, yeah So the dragon comes in breathes
fire and kills The dragon kill Does he kill happy?
No, who is he hitting there? I just thought I
was just a random character. I didn't I Could
have sworn no he doesn't kill happy because happy's
right there and then Gertrude is riding the dragon
Dragon writer, you know, she's trained her dragon
and now she's Yeah, we're gonna run into a few
other references later folks that I will actually
catch on to thanks to a Sesame Street parody
Yeah, somebody get sweater That might be the
best thing Sesame Street has done in 70 years
I don't think it has been around for 70 years,
I exaggerate, but yeah. 60s, I think. Yeah, 50,
60, something like that. So Gertrude is back
and she has made a deal with one of these dark
dead lords. She said the darketh deadeth, for
a little help. And we then see a recap of her
journey to get the powers that she now has. Which
I think is super cool. Oh Yeah, so we've seen
here folks in this one issue like the first four
were the first three were When did when did have
to have become in issue three or issue four she
came in issue? To at the end of issue two if
not mistaken. No, I'm wrong. I could I jeez.
Yeah, I I think at the end of she chew but most
of she was using issue three mostly Okay, so
for the first two issues we have Gertrude's adventure
of her trying to get to the key. Issue three
and four we have both of their adventures where
we kind of cut back and forth between the characters.
Now in this issue we just have recaps of how
they each got to their objectives. So first we
had the recap of Happy and getting to the key
and now we're having Gertrude's recap of how
she got her dark powers and I just love that
story change. And it's funny, because she's been
so inept trying to find this key for such a long
time. But when it comes to getting these dark
powers, it just comes natural to her. It's because
she's an evil, evil little girl. Exactly. That's
turned into a bitter old hag. Very much so. So
she gets to this dark domain. And I remember
when we went here last time. Like I wasn't sure
what to like I remember when we went here, but
I don't remember exactly What kind of issues
or what kind of whatever I had with it? but basically
the story is is that you know the darkest deadest
guy basically sees her as the daughter he never
had and gives her all this power and Again Scotty's
art and these colors. Oh my god You look at these
three panels release, you know this page where
she's hugging him and then she's got you know
She's infused with the power and she's got this
The next panel down there is where she says,
oh, I will use these powers for evil and just
oh god I just love the art that he does with
this stuff Oh, yeah, and again, it's this Something
with that like the green like evil energy color
that I just love it just I don't know It just
so eye -popping that it's and we get we get a
huge amount of it in this issue. So yeah, and
then we have happy versus Gert and happy Pretty
much fights with fights with rainbows. She's
pretty much the She's pretty much the lucky of
this, you know, look, you know magically delicious
bowl of lucky charms of rainbows and Unicorns
and God know teddy bears. Oh my god Did wait
did he throw no yeah, no, that's a flower I was
gonna say if he threw a cowardly line in there,
I'd be just laughing my ass off Sadly this doesn't
go too well for happy because Gertrude just opens
her mouth and I Can't say this any other way
folks. She just sucks it all in. I'm sorry. Just
just look at the image. She's Absorbs it There
you go Yeah And Yeah, so happy ends up underground
pretty much she's kind of dead now I would assume
I Guess I that what we'll see she she was not
an issue six at all. So she'll return in some
way Mean I kind of hope she does because I would
like to see these two fight more. Yeah But just
looking at the panel now in this specific issue.
It looks like she's Because she says help the
floor is eating me I assume if the floor can
eat you and Digest you like unicorn digests planets.
I mean come on now Who knows but I'm sure Scotty
will find a way around it that makes sense to
this universe So Gertrude is going to go through
the door and and go home And then Claudia has
to open her big mouth And I love Larry for once
you make a good point what no do not Kill the
Queen So Gertrude, instead of going home, she
kills the queen. And because she kills the queen,
she can't go home. Yeah. According to Larry,
upon the death of the king or queen, the one
who deals the fatal blow must take up the crown
and become the queen of Fluffin' Fairyland. Yeah,
I mean, I was wondering, like, OK, so. We knew
that this was gonna be going to be going into
like a new art going into it So I kind of thought
maybe she would end up back into her homeland
or into another Site sort of place similar to
this I mean, I guess I guess you have to see
in fairyland for fairyland for it to be called
I hate fairyland But this does have me at the
end of this issue. I'm like, wow, I you know,
I was wondering if this would go beyond The five
issues that it is and now I'm like, okay now
the status quo is completely different and how
she now the Really the villain for the first
for you know issues are gone So where we're gonna
go from here So it did have me excited of where
we're gonna go next and had me really happy with
everything that came before and I felt like a
very fitting end but also a Solid place to start
anew for the New York that came And the thing
with this final issue of this first five issues
is that, and I wasn't sure, because originally
you had told me when we started this, that it
was only a five issue mini, and then you had
said something about that, you know, oh he took
a break and he's gonna come back to it, which
he did and he has, regarding Scotty Young and
doing this book, and I thought, okay, if it's
a five issue mini series, fine, we'll just go
ahead and... talk about it we'll do the episodes
we'll put them out there and that'll be that
and we can move on to whatever else and after
reading this this final issue of the first arc
here it's like oh wow if they had ended this
and never done a sixth or seventh or eighth or
ninth or tenth i'd be like that was a good ending
but i still want more damn it thankfully we're
getting more What would you rate this? Zero to
five so I've given pretty much everything a four
out of this point with so this for me saying
This is the best so far. I would bump it up to
a four point five for this Like I said, it's
you know, they Scott Young did it he ended it
and had me excited That's everything you want
to see and the ending of a first arc. So for
me, it's a four point five out of five I gotta
give it a five. I love the way that this changed
everything, the way he changed the storytelling.
I mean, you still have the narrator there, but
you don't really see the way he juxtaposed the
narration against the images of the other characters
as we're going through. Normally, I notice when
the color changes on the narration panels, like
if it's black lettering with the yellow or the
orange, I figure, oh, it's the sun, or if it's...
blue background with white lettering I figure
it's the moon or whoever I didn't really notice
that at first with this because I felt like it
was going in such a very different direction
with the narration since they essentially make
no mention of the narrator's guild anymore at
all which is fine I don't have a problem with
that and I really have no like there's nothing
in this to dislike for me there's no pacing problems
everything Comes out well and then leave you
wanting more. I agree. I don't know there's not
really any negatives I think the the only thing
is like it's as good as it's gonna get like for
me for like a five out of five it would be like
forever changing comic book that's like Put on
a pedestal of all common books like Dark Knight
Rises or not rises but return just about that
where like this isn't that no nor does it attend
to be so I think for what it is it's definitely
a 4 .5, but it's not necessarily I wouldn't bring
this as my favorite comic of the year, but it's
not trying to be. It's trying to be just a very
escapist, pure entertainment, which it succeeds
at. I mean, if I was going to put this series
on a year -end list, if I was going to make a
top 15 year -end list, it would at least make
the top 10. Series so far these first five issues
have all been really really great. Yeah, I could
definitely see that argument It probably would
be close to me. I think it would be it would
be up there for sure Number seven or eight maybe
for me. I don't know who knows So an issue number
six we start a whole new story arc here We open
up in a stadium with a bunch of balloons floating
around it and blimps and all that kind of stuff
and We see these two creatures What is that thing
remind me of a pink version of stitch I can see
that I guess I was I thought it's more like a
mullish or just like a teddy bear and I gotta
say like this opening got me like I'm like, okay,
so You know, obviously we see this huge guy in
organic green monster taken down by this green
fluffy teddy bear or purple or pink fluffy Tittle
bear and that was a lot of fun and then the we
get to see girl for the first time since last
issue and she's old and Let's say she filled
out pretty well for herself Yeah, so i'm like,
wow, I guess we're flash forwarding Yeah, what
Scotty has done here essentially is he has turned
her into somewhat of a cloudier design, but not
really. But he's also... Oh, I just noticed that.
Oh, I'll talk about that in a minute. What he's
also doing here is he's also poking fun at a
certain Disney queen. Notice her hair is like
horns like Maleficent Yeah, yeah, and then of
course I just noticed The little title there
under her throne Gert of Thrones Yeah, there's
a lot of Game of Thrones. There's a lot of Game
of Thrones references in this one. Yeah, which
is fine I like I've said before and this is my
own I guess It'll it's my own little thing here
that I'm not it's not that I don't want to watch
Game of Thrones and Yes, I know HBO has plenty
of other content besides Game of Thrones But
I'm not going to sit here and pay for a subscription
service just for one television show And I know
they have a bunch of other content, but I just
like I'm so not You know that that's my only
thing but I've seen enough of it and I've seen
enough parody and I've heard enough of my friends
talking about it that I know what it is and I
know what some of the references are so. So we
have Queen Gertrude who is all essentially almost
hoard up here. I would go that I mean she's still
Queen Lee but she's just you know. Yeah. Her
boobs weren't popping out that much in the last
issue. Well, no, she was like five. Yeah. Yeah.
And we soon come to find out that this is actually
a dream sequence. I love this. The old dude wakes
her up. You'll never take me alive. And she kills
him. Oh my god. And I was waiting for the panel
where she says, oops, my bad. Must be my K -A
-T -W -M -T -S -D acting up again. I don't understand.
And then Larry... He supplements it. Kill anything
that wakes me. Traumatic stress disorder. I think
a lot of us suffer from that. I don't think we've
actually ever killed anybody, literally, but...
I'm sure I'm sure if we lived in this world we'd
be very yeah and then it goes into the the standard
of she's a queen and you know absolute power
bores absolutely she even says well if that power
is boredom then you're right is fluff and the
whole time when Larry's when when he's telling
her what she could do the panel where he says
enact your evil schemes and take over all the
lands pillage and plunder and build your riches
beyond imagination burning out anyone who defies
you this panel here where she's you know looking
over the the land here the like a game board
i'm like so essentially she's just playing risk
with fairyland Guess yeah, I feel like in a way
what we're seeing is just like the Mundaneness
of Queen and how like she really doesn't really
get to do anything the first like Like we had
the Game of Thrones reference earlier. We'll
have another later But when I saw this one panel
with her and all the little things the first
thing I thought of was that board game risk because
everybody used to play damn thing Yeah, I could
see that and kind of thinking, okay, seeing her
master scheme, thinking what she's going to be
able to do as Queen, you know, putting these
people on chess boards and being able to kind
of rule over the land. But we soon find out that's
not really the case. No, it's not really the
case because he says in one panel, oh, wait,
sorry, spoke too soon as Evil Queen. You send
your henchmen, hordes, dark wizards and other
all around scourge to do all that stuff while
you sit on a throne. We even get a Rapunzel reference.
Tower. Tower Queen. Oh man, and once again Scotty's
art. The just that's the constant change like
the panel where it's all the fire and brimstone
of when Larry's Telling her what she could do
with the volcanoes and all that stuff Yeah, it
goes to this bright hat not really happy but
this bright sunshiny thing As she goes through
the lands because she's going that they're going
through these different lands in a pumpkin car
somebody call Cinderella, please Yeah And I love
the running gag we get here of just like she
just every time they leave the place She's something's
getting exploded or killed or something like
that I like the one and I'm so not a Wizard fan
of a certain franchise, but the harbinger school
of witches and warlocks that has to be a Potter
reference I would assume so. Yeah, definitely
But yeah, so that's where this issue goes is
as the year goes goes throughout she ends that
they end up going to all the different lands
and basically Killing all the rulers. She even
cuts Wow, yeah, that's a great image to him just
like his like legitimately brightly colored intestines
just flying out and then like in the background
you see like the silhouette of Kutcher just like
yeah and with the great little panel right there
and then the running gag of Larry I'll bring
the car around good call again I get another
this is Scottie Young's been is kind of becoming
a master at really well made running jokes and
uh it's continues with this issue. And then the
panel. I'm not even sure why there was an explosion.
Makes for a cooler getaway. I can't disagree.
So she goes through all of Fairyland and pretty
much destroying it all yeah most of the time
it's by accident she's not intentionally it's
only before where she was trying to get to the
key and no one or nothing would stand in her
way and she was basically killing everybody because
she could in this it's more of an unintentional
death kind of thing and we get to the one panel
So we've had Game of Thrones references, we've
had at least on my own part a risk, some sort
of risk board game reference. We get to the panel
where it says, the narration says, Is he really
throwing a Trump reference at us? Really? Come
on now! As soon as I saw a giant candy wall,
I'm like, hey, we're really trumping the pence
now, aren't we, folks? Yeah. Yeah. I don't know
if that was intentional, but I don't think it
was intentional, but that was the first thing
I thought of. Let's build a wall. I think we'd
all be in favor of a candy wall someplace, you
know, just in general. Well, we'd all end up
eating it and then they'd have to rebuild it.
Exactly. So it's kind of like, you know, Humpty
Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty had a great
fall. Yeah. But you know what you see your kind
of basically is inciting war by accident by just
being such an awful queen at doing everything.
So. And there's even there's even graffiti on
the street on the walls in the streets. Fluff
the Queen. And apparently, I wasn't sure where
this was going, but when we get to the point
where the bottles, I really wasn't sure where
this was going. See, once I saw it, I'm like,
are they going to go with the Howard Hughes reference
of the guy locking himself up and peeing in bottles?
And then that's where they went. I'm like, you
know what? Kudos to you for putting a Howard
Hughes joke in a comic like this. I'm actually
kind of into that. Yeah, they put a Howard Hughes
joke and then and then Scotty immediately What's
in The other Game of Thrones reference winter
is coming Yeah, just say and just the whole thing
I just absolutely found that hilarious Yeah,
I mean like every good yeah, like every all the
other ones were kind of like, you know subtle
maybe not There's some more hints more visual
gags. This one was legitimately just going with
everyone's favorite Statement winter is coming
and then obviously like you mentioned the the
actual joke of it being a person named winter
Yeah, Harriet winter And they're essentially
going to fire Queen Gertrude and then we have
an image of the bottle filled with her urine
and the bottle screaming please help me like
she lives in a castle like she hasn't destroyed
her own castle right because she lives in a castle
even if she's locked up in her room most mansions
at least master bedrooms have most master bedrooms
have a master bath attached you mean seriously
she can't go to the I don't know. She's just
crazy. It's just I think it's. Yeah, and it's
funny. I mean, I'm not sitting here trying. I'm
really not trying to put the logic in it. I just
have to point that out, that most places do have
actual bathrooms, even if you are locked up in
one room. Well, yeah, I don't think she was locked
up. Well, I think she just locked herself up
and was just kind of losing her mind. So I think
she was saving it for later just for collection
purposes. Just all kinds of no. So Harriet essentially
fired. She says, we're here to discuss your termination.
And Gertrude just assumes that they're going
to kill her. And they're just going to fire her.
So she's no longer queen. Which I didn't realize
you could fire queens, but I guess it makes sense.
I mean, hey, why not? If you can impeach presidents,
you can dethrone royalty, I guess. Yeah, I mean,
it's one way to do it. I mean, a lot less heads
being chopped off this way if you just do it
through paperwork. So, yeah, and that in a great
little we talked about the running gag of things
exploding. And then, of course, just the, you
know, the last panel of the comic one last time,
but this time she blows up the castle. And one
last time with feeling. Yeah. And we get it to
be continued Fluff my life fluff indeed, and
she's running off into the the legions of of
fairyland I Love what I love about These comics
is in each of them each of the six issues that
we've talked about to this point at some point
in the comic Scottie writes something whether
it's how the series started whether it's How
it's gonna continue or whatever else? In the
last one, in issue five, he wrote an ending letter.
In issue six, he has a letter, you know, Long
live the queen of knot or knot and he's got,
you know, his whole thing of, and I just, I just
love his writing. It just, whether it's the comic
or whether it's just him writing to the audience
is just so fun. Yeah, and I do like he's got
I don't know like he's kind of like the perfect
the perfect sense of humor with this like he's
self -aware You never just it's like he's not
taking himself to you seriously and he's just
got a really good like sense about what this
is and I'm glad just like image kind of just
let him do whatever he wanted to do and He's
calling himself out, you know in a way So like
how he says he's basically good wife to us and
I don't know if you know what that's reference
to whether it's I know that yeah, that's show.
Yeah, which actually I think is a quite good
show but basically how it would end each year
and Each season and it would be like, okay, everything's
gonna be changing next season. It's gonna be
completely different Like we mentioned I'm like,
oh now she's Queen So this is gonna be a different
status quo but in reality by the end of the first
Episode of the first season or in this case the
first issue of the first new series kind of ended
up back where we began And that, I think that's
a good joke, but I, again, I'm wondering, okay,
where do we go from here? Again, I've had that
question since the beginning, it paid off beautifully
since then, but that was my one hesitation. I'm
like, I kind of wish they let this play out a
little bit longer, but I guess we felt like there
wasn't anything else to tell, so let's do something
else, so. That's my one concern. It's just like
are we gonna get back to what we already did
before and will we Will this kind of just get
old within the next few issues not saying it's
gonna happen, but I do have that concern. I Mean
it does say that she is going to continue to
find her way home, but it doesn't say Whether
or not it doesn't say that she has to find the
key to get like she's gonna find some other way
to get home What I love about issue six here
and I don't think this will ever happen because
this isn't Scotty's style whoever did the alternate
cover of her with the giant axe I would love
to see that art style it might be Scotty's I
don't see his signature on this cover so but
I just would love to see that art style on part
of the issue and all these alternate covers are
amazing then there's just one giant one with
all these people who cosplay as her so cool But
yeah, I hate Fairyland 5 and 6. We have the ending
of the first arc in issue 5, and we have the
beginning of the second arc here in issue 6.
And man, I just can't get enough of this series,
folks. This series is awesome. Yeah, certainly.
It delivers everything that you want it to, so
that's been great so far. I mean, I think some
people probably may not like it, but I think
if... You read the first page of the first issue,
and you like that, you'll like the entire series
so far. Yeah, as soon as she started killing
the stars in the first issue, I was hooked. As
soon as I saw those four stars getting bullets,
the giant gun she had with the bullets, oh my
god. Because it reminded me that the giant gun
with the giant bullets reminded me of... Eddie
Valiant at the end of Roger Rabbit come on fellas
let's go and you know his cartoon bullets get
in the gun and all you have all these different
bullets doing all these you know you got an Indian
one you got other ones and just that's what it
reminded me of and it's just some of the things
that I equate and reference to and from this
series to other things is like I haven't had
this much fun in a comic in a long in the four
years or Is it four? Yeah, four years that I've
been reading comics now. This just, it's just
so damn fun. I mean, I consistently laugh at
least twice every issue. So, because there's
all kinds of cool jokes in here. Folks, check
out I Hate Fairyland from Scotty Young and Image
Comics, please. I mean, this, this series is
hilarious. What would you give issue six overall
zero to five? I'm going to go four out of five.
Like I said, just reasons not scoring hard. Like
I said, it's just that one caveat of my concern.
But we'll we'll see with next issue, which is
coming out relatively shortly, which we'll get
to probably next year. And at some point we'll
get to next year. But yeah, I'm going to I'm
going to give this one a four to five. I really
did enjoy it. I think it's an interesting beginning.
But I'm holding off on that grand number five
rating for later greatness to see what does happen
with her, because if she's not queen and she
doesn't have to actively look for a key to get
home, then my question is, what is going to be
her adventure on how to get herself back home
and out of Fairyland? She's already she had already
made this deal with this this dark lord and everything
else So she has she has more power than what
she had when we first found her an issue one
obviously so And I can't wait to see what they
do with the narrated the narration the narration
to this is like It's like all these voice actors
in my head like seriously it's like Like I mentioned
when the moon got killed my buddy Joe San Filippo
who does narration on The ever after high series
from Mattel on Netflix Like I heard him as the
moon when sadly the moon got you know shot to
death But just it's just so funny. Just so awesome
Alright folks, we're gonna take a quick break.

this. new trailers, and is willing just to have
fun with some crazy movie games. Maybe even,
