Rapunzel’s
Revenge is a graphic novel version of the classic tale. It places Rapuzel in a
Old West setting where she is imprisoned in a massive tree instead of a tower.
She breaks out all on her own and uses her cunning and mastery of her way too
long hair to get revenge on Mother Gothel and free her real mother from the
mines where she works for Gothel. On the way she meets a boy named Jack. He had
some problems with some giants and beanstalks back east…
The second book, Calamity Jack, is Jack’s story. In it
Rapunzel and Jack return back east to confront the giants and save the day.
Both are fun examples about how you can take a fairy tale and rewrite it in
your own way.
