Rapunzel's Revenge is a very enjoyable retelling of the Rapunzel fairy tale which moves the setting to the Old Wild West. Rapunzel has been raised to believe that Mother Gothel is her natural mother, but an act of rebellion on her twelfth birthday leads to the truth and Mother Gothel's retribution.Rapunzel is imprisoned in a bewitched tree tower for four years, during which time her hair grows extremely long, she exercises and finds new uses for her hair out of boredom, and she continues to displease Mother Gothel on her yearly visit. She finally escapes, meets up with Jack, and the adventure really begins as they plot Mother Gothel's downfall.This was a delightful story, both whimsical and warm, and the Wild West setting gave it a completely unique flavor. A strong female character, a good friendship and humor all the way through round it off to a very nicely done tale.The art is pleasing, while not exceptional. It rarely does anything to advance the storyline, but does illustrate it nicely and fully brings out the "tall tale" feel to the story.I'm surprised at the recommended age range, 9-12, and feel that a somewhat older age would appreciate it and understand it better.Overall, this is an unusual and delightful retelling of a classic story that should please young adult readers, graphic novel fans and lovers of fairy tale retellings.
My first ever graphic novel. It was a short read, quick, but funny. The illustrations were absolutely beautiful and the story was well-written, as I'd expect of Shannon Hale. I can't say I'm now totally sold on graphic novels, but it was an interesting experience. The story nodded to the original in a few ways that made me smile, but also twisted in with a whole new western spin on things. The story moved very quickly, but I don't think that detracted from it. Cool new setting, fun characters, entertaining story. A good short read.
I've recently been getting into the genre of the "retold fairy tale"; that is, taking an old fairy tale/tall tale/legend and changing the characters, setting, and/or time period to make it something new and fresh. In this case, the idea of taking classic characters like Rapunzel, Jack and the Beanstalk, etc, and placing them in a Western setting immediately grabbed my attention, and this comic book didn't disappoint.A long time ago, during the time of the old, wild west, a young girl named Rapunzel lives in a pleasant villa, ruled over by her mother, Gothel. But one day, curiosity gets the best of Rapunzel, and she scales the massive wall surrounding the villa, only to discover the outside landscape in ruin, and worse; Gothel isn't her real mother, but a selfish witch who controls a huge chunk of the world, thanks to her magic, plant-based powers. When Rapunzel refuses to go along with Gothel's plans of conquest, the witch imprisons her in a tower (actually a giant tree). Over the years, Rapunzel's hair grows to an enormous length, until finally, she engineers her own escape and vows revenge against Gothel. After meeting up with a snarky, but friendly thief named Jack, the two then set off on an adventure to defeat the witch and save the wild west. And fashioning her long hair into lassos and whips, Rapunzel helps various characters along the way, and makes it her mission to right all of Gothel's wrongs.After loving Disney's take on Rapunzel in the movie, "Tangled", it was hard for me to not make comparisons while reading this. Jack (from Jack and the Beanstalk) is certainly a lot like the lovable thief, Flynn Rider, but while he can be a trickster, he never takes credit for any of "Punzie's" heroism; he's perfectly okay with being the sidekick. And his goose companion/pet (from the Goose that Laid the Golden Egg) is both adorable and hilarious. Gothel's a bit of a one note villain, however (even after it's explained how she came to power), and it's odd how she's so dead set on Rapunzel becoming her "heir to the throne" as it were, when the girl makes it clear she hates her. But the other characters make up for this, such as the appearance of a pack of coyotes (a Big Bad Wolf reference?) and a village of small people (a reference to Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, I take it).But the stand out character is definitely Rapunzel herself. While she starts off her adventure understandably naive about the world (since she was locked in a tower for years), she quickly comes into her own and learns how to survive in the rough landscape; using no guns or any other weapons, save for her hair, her bravery, and her wits. And she makes it clear she'll never stoop as low as stealing, or using any underhanded methods to get what she wants. She's incredibly kind and selfless, but won't back down from a fight either; always putting others before herself.The art style has an "old timey" feel to it; servicing the steampunk/wild west theme very well. And the change up of setting makes the classic fairy tales not just another carbon repeat of what's come before. The fact that other classic stories are mixed together (all of which were mentioned in the above paragraphs) is a nice touch, and just makes it even more unique.This is definitely one graphic novel to check out, especially if you're tired of the same old fairy tales, or tired of Disney's take on these classic stories, and are wanting something fresh and different. With a unique setting, and likeable heroes, this is one story that deserves a movie adaption. Now I've got to check out the sequel, "Calamity Jack".
This is a terrific graphic novel that will appeal to both boys and girls, but particularly to the kind of active, independent girl that gets impatient with conventional heroines. It is beautifully drawn, with high-quality, high-gloss color pages, and the writing is snappy and inventive. It's the kind of book you'll enjoy as much as your child does. It's appropriate for somewhat older children (I would say a sophisticated 8 year old or older) and teenagers would enjoy it as well.
