Through the Woods

Product Information

His Face All Red begins a theme that’ll last for the next three tales, namely the idea of someone - or something - possessing your body, wearing it like a meat puppet and undergoing a complete personality change (maybe she’s so fearful of this because someone in Carroll’s family had Alzheimer’s?). Two brothers, one a hero, one forgotten, go into the woods to kill the monster terrorising the village - not realising the monsters were never on the outside. Serves the silly girl right,” is reported to have said Mrs Bennett when she heard of poor Janna's demise.)

Over the course of three more days, the girls' basic necessities (food, water, kindling, and matches) run out. It's on the third day that they're completely gone. The girls themselves also die one by one after meeting the man with the wide-brimmed hat, which is represented by them suddenly disappearing along with their traveling cloaks. Mary is the first to die, followed by Hannah, then lastly Beth when she travels to the neighbor's house alone in the middle of a snowstorm. This is one of my favorite stories and I just really wish we could have found out what was exactly inside that house at the end!While their father is gone, the girls play games on the first day, do chores on the second, and spend the entire third day in a state of lethargy ( implied to be due to hypothermia). Unfortunately, that's when things start going bad for the girls, starting with the realization that their father died hunting. This girl's father marries her off to this man and she moves into his manor. Well, she gets waken up every night hearing some singing. this is another little shorty - the urban legend rim shot to end end the collection on a pop. it's a little red riding hood offshoot whose zinger is pretty much the same shape as this joke that i am spoiler tagging for people who don't think pedophile jokes are ever funny: Reviewer Spotlight: Where I spotlight one of my friends that deserve attention and who doesn't attention seek with the review bumps. Helpless Window Death: The story "My Friend Janna" climaxes with Yvonne watching helplessly from outside Janna's house as Janna is apparently murdered in front of her window by the "ghost" that has been haunting Janna.

Break the Cutie: Happens to the second wife. Being nearly killed by the violently possessive corpse of the first wife and listening to her husband's dying screams as he is gruesomely murdered leaves the second wife with quite a bit of trauma. This is symbolized by her eyes turning into creepy dark eyeshadows and her previously immaculate hairstyle coming undone by the end. But my favorite story of all was the one that was told to the monster. How hella cool was that? Totally awesome. :) Does This Remind You of Anything?: This story is centered around two friends, one is having an emotional/mental breakdown, no longer enjoys previous activities, is all but actively pushing old friends away, and those friends gradually start losing interest in reconnecting. Then the friend having a breakdown tries to make some last ditch plea for help at an inconvenient time, only to be turned away by people who didn't understand the urgency and vanishes afterward, gone forever. So... is that description about the story "My Friend Janna", or does it come from a PSA about suicide? The parallels aren't hard to see. Carroll, Emily. "EM Carroll Art & Comics". emcarroll.com.

I can’t wait to read the full graphic novel.
