The Scholarly Banana Presents Fitcher's Bird : A Classic Fairy Tale from the Brothers Grimm
Bok av Karly West
Want to discover the darkest, most twisted fairy tales your parents never told you? The Scholarly Banana is an irreverently nerdy graphic novel series that summarizes, analyzes, and lovingly ridicules the craziest traditional fairy tales that have shaped our world! BEWARE: This is not your children?s story hour! Here, we celebrate the real, uncensored stories?and the real, uncensored facts associated with them?as accurately as possible, but in the most fun and joyful way!
Fitcher?s Bird is a classic fairy tale from the Brothers Grimm. If you?ve never heard of this story before, just imagine Beauty and the Beast. The difference is that in Fitcher?s Bird, ?the beast? is not a handsome prince. He?s a mangy, rabid beast. Who kills people. And keeps corpses in the house. In this debut issue, we?ll celebrate and gently mock the feather-encrusted train wreck that is Fitcher?s Bird! We?ll also discuss high-brow, scholarly matters about the tale like historical inspirations, comparative literature, and phallic symbols.
If you love fairy tales, history, over analysis, comedic asides and quirky artwork, this series is a must-read. It?s like CliffsNotes meets The Muppets meets Mystery Science Theater 3000.But with fairy tales. And of course, a banana. He?s a Scholarly Banana, though. You can tell by his glasses.
