Köpalternativ och tillägg
Disney’s New York Times best-selling Villains series comes to life in this graphic novel adaptation of the book that started it all in this tragic tale of love and loss, the untold story of Snow White’s Wicked Queen.
The tale of the young princess, Snow White, and her evil stepmother, the Wicked Queen, is widely known—the Queen was jealous of the girl’s beauty, and this jealousy culminated in the Queen’s attempt on the sweet, naive girl’s life.
But what caused the Queen to become so, well, wicked? Perhaps the Queen hated her stepdaughter for her resemblance to the King’s first wife. Perhaps she resented the girl for her beauty. Could the Queen simply have been born that cruel? Or does it have to do with a mysterious mirror, gifted to her upon her wedding and swirling with dark magic?
And who is the man in the mirror? Is he the reason for the Queen’s downfall?
This tragic tale of love and loss is the untold story of the Wicked Queen, a woman who just wanted to be the fairest of all...

Recension
The evil stepmother in this retelling of “Snow White” starts life as a commoner who marries the king and becomes a loving mother to his little girl. How does she develop into a murderous monster? Valentino constructs an emotionally complex story that investigates the queen’s origins as the daughter of a cruel mirror maker. The bitter man never showed his daughter any love, frequently telling her she was ugly. He bargained away his soul to give the beautiful wife he cherished the child she longed for and was devastated when she died in childbirth. The queen discovers that three witchy sisters—the king’s cousins—brokered this supernatural deal. They appear throughout the story, continually weaving their evil magic into the queen’s life and encouraging her to do horrible deeds. The royal family’s lives are richly described, with the inclusion of a new character: trusted lady-in-waiting Verona. Also called “the fairest one of all” by the magic mirror, Verona is banished by the queen. The dwarves are barely seen, but many familiar plot points remain in this graphic adaptation. The tolls of parental resentment, jealousy, envy, and magic manifest in the queen’s behavior as the story progresses. The illustrations, in black and white with large quantities of off-putting green, are striking. The queen’s and Snow White’s likenesses to Disney characters are evident; most characters read White. Of interest to readers who wish to deeply explore a tale remembered from childhood. (Graphic fantasy. 12-16)- Kirkus (Mar 1, 2023)

Hur kundrecensioner och betyg fungerar
Kundrecensioner, inklusive stjärnrecensioner av produkter, hjälper kunder att lära sig mer om produkten och avgöra om det är rätt produkt för dem.
Vi använder inte ett enkelt medelvärde för att beräkna den totala stjärnrecensionen och den procentuella fördelningen per stjärna. Istället tar vårt system hänsyn till saker som till exempel hur nyligen en recension har gjorts och om recensenten köpte artikeln på Amazon. Det analyserar också recensioner för att verifiera deras trovärdighet.

Great graphic novel companion
Granskad i USA den 20 maj 2023
I love the original books in this series and was super excited to see a graphic novel series coming out! I do wish the color scheme was better as it's a bit abrasive visually with the bright green but I still think it's a wonderful story and a great addition to my villians collection.

Couldn't wait for the book to arrive to finally see the odd sisters depicted. And Fiona Marchbank illustrated them so lovely!
Are there more graphic novels to the other stories of the Disney Villains series to be expected?

Great gift
Granskad i USA den 6 september 2023
Ordered this for my daughters 12th birthday. I normally read books before I give them to her. I’ve already read this whole series, then I saw the illustrated version! It’s decked out like a comic in the colors of the Evil Queen and she’s enthralled with it! Great job!

Strikingly Stark Disney Publication
Granskad i USA den 11 maj 2023
A strikingly stark Disney Graphic Novel. It's both surprising and admirable to see Disney commit to a publication with such stark and rather 'severe' visuals. However once the eye got accustomed to the lack of lushness, I found it to be a complimentary storytelling-visual choice. This is no warm-fuzzy tale. The Queen's emotional state isn't the rosiest -even at her happiest before she succumbs to her evil impulses- so the limited color-palette feels like an integral choice. As a fan of the original novel, I was pleasantly surprised to see that everything I recalled- down to the spookiest images inspired by the Queen's fever-dream hallucinations - were present. Well done and worth exploring.

I have read all of the villains series by Serena Valentino. I absolutely adore that this was done in green, black and white. I very much hope that she will continue these graphic novels to follow her series.
