Ladies of Legend

Ladies of Legend is not a usual graphic novel. It’s a visual presentation of different women from mythology, fairytales, or legends. Like Daphne, Joan of Arc, Little Red Riding Hood, Pocahontas, and others. They are presented differently. From a woman’s point of view. Some also contain different interpretations of the same story and some interesting facts.

The color illustrations are funny and very good. Some interpretations were interesting, some a bit less. I partly enjoyed this, but overall this graphic novel didn’t hold my attention for long. I think the idea behind this graphic novel is very good, but I’m not sure about the execution.
