Grimm Fairy Tales: Different Seasons Volume 2 collects four special issues (2007 & 2008’s Annuals and 2011’s Halloween & Holiday issues) to deliver frights and chills. The stories include a children’s storytime reader telling twisted fairy tales, a grim reaper touring a cruise ship, and a Hollywood starlet getting the full Christmas Carol treatment. For the most part the writing is pretty good and impressively creative (though Annual 2008 is a bit confusing as times). And the art too is well-done (with one or two exceptions) and features a variety of styles. Also included is a cover gallery featuring several variant covers. Delightfully macabre, Grimm Fairy Tales: Different Season Volume 2 is an entertaining anthology.

DPL hoopla

Belinda's storytime is especially terrifying!

Again, some of these seam to have very rushed art work. There is also no reason behind Sela working with Belinda while she is still under the dark one's spell. Overall, they are just kinda there, not necessary for the overall story at all.

Definitely answered the questions of "who was that person again?" and "why was that so important?" for a few of the points in the main story line.
