ashwednesdayThis will suffice for now.
Jeffrey Thomas, an illustrator, imagines Disney princesses drawn by Marvel. Evil!Ariel particularly makes me clap my hands with glee.
Zombie Sleeping Beauty might deserve second place, though. Wonderful. It's great seeing how these tropes can be revisited, and as someone with a long time interest in the darker side of fairytales, I find these images brilliant.
It also makes me think again of a story I wrote some years ago, which was about Sleeping Beauty, told from the perspective of the prince. The story began with his flesh torn by brambles as he dragged his thirsting body through a nightmare of a forest. I liked the story, but in the end it didn't have quite the punch I wanted. Perhaps it is time to revisit it.
