BTW: “Her left-wing politics got her far as mayor”???? Where, exactly, did the man get the brilliant idea that Mandy is a mewling liberal? I don’t think she fits anywhere on the political spectrum!(But then, all I have watched is Chinese-dubbed version of the show) Can you imagine how the election went down? Mandy, standing behind a podium, her face glowering, eyes staring down at the audience, delivering a speech promising her constituents universal healthcare and enviornmental policies? That would be surreal as hell, Jesus Christ.

Now I’ll just say that I loved this webcomic, and I mean LOVED. It was just great in all aspects (even if I was a bit disturbed by that little kiss, you know the one), and I recommend it to everyone, even if it’s true that Junior begins as (and is for quite a while) a “whinny little bitch”, as I think El Santo so graciously described him.

I agree with pretty much everything in this review. The only semi-redeeming quality of it is the art style. Not even the character designs work for plenty of characters.

At first, I thought Minnie, save her way of talking, was a decent character, and Junior seemed cocky but tolerable. It didn’t take long before I realized Junior is a whiny little crybaby and Minnie was a blantant Mary-Sue.

Also, loving someone is not a sin, even if you’re related to them. I mean, you can’t help who you fall in love with, so techinally, Minnie should have been allowed into Heaven.

Finally, my main issue with Junior? He’s a spoiled brat, who at the end of the story gets everything he wants.

Annoying Twerps for Heroes: They’re like 12 years old. They didn’t even know what a Halloween was at the beginning. Junior is supposed to be a wuss, he is a weak character, but when he has to fight he will. Can’t expect a 12 year old, dead or not, to suddenly come up face to face with a killer demon and be all like “Whoo hoo! Let’s kick some ass!” It’s not Final Fantasy. And as for Minnie, it’s called expectation and being spoiled. Only she is a good outcome of being spoiled. She wants to protect her brother, not get into fist fights constantly.

Too Many Cameos: They’re in hell. It would be stupid if they met 6 cameos through the entire comic. Plus, he incorporated characters everyone loves. It’s like taking every cartoon you loved when you were younger and slapping them together.

Bad Dialogue: Grim is Jamaican. How the hell do you write that? It’s like trying to write the dialogue of someone who speaks English (England English). And Minnie likes Shakespeare. Sure she might screw it up sometimes, but again, she’s 12.

No Plot: Minnie dies and Junior goes ape-shit. He’s a walking skeleton, Grim’s Son, and once again, in hell. If you’re not demonic in someway, ape-shit or not, you shouldn’t be in hell. Even Grim could do weird demonic type things if he wanted to. Most of the plot you have down, but the most important thing is, Minnie and Junior love each other and would fight to protect each other until Junior takes the throne.

Incest: Kinda mind boggled me too. Kinda disturbed me but hey, they’re in hell, or the underworld. At least they’re not screwing like rabbits.

Sad attempts at shock value: You translate things weird. The Abortion was to give birth to Junior. Mandy slit her throat because she knew she wouldn’t die. I don’t think he was trying to shock us there, common sense plays a roll in it.

Mind blowing stupidity: Grim is attracted to Mandy because she has no heart. She’s like death himself. She could kill millions of people because she thinks they’re stupid and she’s the only one who’s ever bested him. He probably also likes her because she is the smartest person he’s come across, even smarter then him and level headed. As for 911 and all that, it was a sign that catastrophes are planning out and executed by the work of the Grim Reaper to fill his quotas. He shows Mandy doing it because it’s supposed to show that she can do his job better then he can because of how merciless she can be. And as for her being robotic, no, she just doesn’t care. About anything. Minnie on the other hand, cares about her brother, and that’s it.

I can’t believe I just re-reviewed this entire thing. Ugh, Grim Tales is a good comic if you don’t study the shit out of it and purposely try to find the flaws.
