I liked it, but cliffhanger much? 4, it’s picking up, stars.

Sorry, This Isn't Working For Me At All
I'm a big fan of the Grimm Universe, and especially like and admire the look and the feel of their entire Alice mythos. I had hoped that these first four issues of "Belle" would capture some of that old magic and style. But, while these four issues were pretty, and had the occasional amusing or clever moments, it was all fairly generic and predictable. There is nothing special, or even distinctive or memorable, about the heroine's look, backstory, personality, or skilz. Often, Belle just monologued and kvetched to kill time or fill space between monster appearances. Oddly, issue four recaps everything and feels like a reboot of what we just read in the first three issues. So, I really appreciated having the opportunity to read these four issues, but this just didn't ring my Bell(e).

Issue four opens up into having the full sweary, teens-only content it wanted to have from the get-go, and for once actually keeps this comic on the same rail from the beginning of the issue to the end. (It still manages to make some large jumps in timeline, but those are OK.) It's snappy, lively, fun – but I do think the book lets itself down by avoiding consistency almost as much as possible, and not keeping us in touch with nearly all the threads it's tried to go down. At least the artwork here was consistent with the quality that had come before, after the title lost a very valuable creator – the loss of life delayed publication by several months. RIP.

Belle: Beast Hunter #4
by Dave Franchini
Belle's worlds have crossed over, her best friend is attacked in her home when Belle retreats to prepare herself for the next fight. Leaving Belle one choice, to follow the Beast into his layer. This is a thrilling step in the new series, that will bring young girls into the comic and hero world.

This is no princess tale…
When I first was notified of these issues I was extremely interested. It’s a twist on a classic tale, which as you may have guessed, Beauty and the Beast. What really captured my attention was that Belle is from a long line beast hunters. I’m sure there is some other retelling where Belle hunts down the beasts, but in these issues, she hunts way more than that.
There are many layers to the story being told involving characters (some you may recognize from the story), choices of weapons, locations, and even the creatures in which Belle has to fight. I was even shocked when a certain mythology creature showed up.
There isn’t a scene that is dull or boring and every page is filled with action and dialogue. The art and style were also very pleasing to look at and you can even spend some time taking it all in. This was really an entertaining read.
