The evolution of 3-D Man so he doesn’t have to use his glasses anymore is perfect. Poor Chuck and Hal, they’ve been sacrificed for Delroy. I do find it interesting that everyone wants to kill Delroy. That said, Parker presented the history in a way that didn’t bog down the story and kept it current and fresh feeling.

Cinderella is an awesome character, and I want her to have her own book that showcases her awesome. I had such higher expectations for this book. Cinderella: Fables are Forever by Chris Roberson
