Review:
Is it the end of Wonderland's terror? That's what Calie Liddle and her daughter Violet are hoping for when they plan to take on The Void and the Queen of Spades.
Calie and her daughter have been tormented by Wonderland for all their lives but this time they were through running from it. After Calie was able to convince Hazel Sebert, the newest victim of The Void, to join her in stopping him the two then devised a plan to gather as many allies as they could. First with Hazel going to talk the Queen of Diamonds and her army into helping them while Calie did her best with the Queen of Clubs.
Upon waiting to meet up with the other allies, Calie was finally able to reunite with her daughter Violet. The group of heroes now joined together are on their way to attack when they were surprised by someone who wanted to join their fight, the Cheshire Cat.
This was non-stop action but the story continues with that special kind of over the top craziness that can only be Wonderland. This is the story that gives readers what they've been waiting for, the Liddles fighting back.
I've read quite a few of the Wonderland stories and I thought this was a very good ending to this arc. I thought it was really nice that the Queen of Clubs and the Queen of Diamonds got their fairy tale ending. The series will focus on another arc with issue #26, so it will be interesting to see what that will be about now that Wonderland is at peace (or is it?).
