razzatazz's Grimm Fairy Tales #80 - The Lockdown, Part 5 review

    Enough with the secret

    This is the best single issue in Grimm Fairy Tales in what must be over three years as finally the reader is given a few plot twists and something more to grab onto in terms of character development.  The character development comes at the front end of this issue as Ilys confronts Sela and drives her almost to rage through the scope of her brainwashing.  This is followed (almost in a clean cut) into a prison riot where Sela finally confronts the real threat behind the problems in the prison.  Although the identity of the person causing the problem is somewhat obvious as everyone else has been eliminated as a culprit, the nature of their plot was not.  Combined with the first ever real introduction of the zombie genre to this series (though I am not a huge fan of the genre) all seems to work pretty well for the issue in the end.  It is still not like the original issues of the series, but in terms of incorporating this into the bigger scale of a series with a well-defined plot, it still works pretty well.
