William Allen is the King of Hearts in Zenescope's Wonderland, but the name that probably sticks with people is the Suicide King. There's a sad story behind that title, and it starts with a little boy looking for his friends. William knew J...

The Hearts court makes a dangerous first impression. The Queen has a palace, card soldiers and the power to turn a personal insult into somebody else's death sentence. Even a game of croquet can get Calie into trouble when the Queen decides...

Eve was one of the characters I liked the most in Red Agent. A lot of the first story revolves around what other people want to do with her, but her involvement with the team, especially Ditto, is what made me want to talk about her separat...

Britney Waters has a lot more going on than the name Red Riding Hood would suggest. By the time she takes on the Red Agent role, she already has her own history in the Grimm universe, and the spy stories give her another set of responsibili...

Britney Waters ends up in a pretty different kind of team in the original Red Agent series. She's still Red Riding Hood, still has that wolf transformation, and still has plenty of reasons to be dangerous on her own. Now she's working insid...

Jack the Giant Killer sounds like a name that should belong to someone arriving to save the village. In Grimm Fairy Tales, that reputation is a lot less reassuring once you get into where his power came from and who he is serving. His story...

Gruel has one of those Grimm Fairy Tales origins where the punishment keeps following the person into the larger story. He begins as a boy whose cruelty turns a chance at a magical reward into a curse. By the time he is serving Orcus, the d...

Belinda makes the Dark Horde's history a lot harder to separate into people doing the manipulating and people being manipulated. She spends a long time doing horrible things to other people, and she is very good at it. But the Dark One has...

Orcus has a long history of turning somebody else's desperation into something he can use. That runs through his earlier rule in Myst and his work for the Dark Horde. He can lead an army, but he's just as willing to make an offer that puts...

Lucinda comes back into Grimm Fairy Tales with very little interest in being grateful that the Dark One brought her back. She wants her proper form, she wants power, and she has plenty to say about the way he's been running things without h...
