  By far my favourite part of the entire issue was the short back-up tale concerning the Darkstalkers universe's version of Red Riding Hood, and that's only due to Skottie Young's energetic art, as again the writing is rather flat and unimpressive. I should perhaps not expect too much from a video game tie-in, but when the game's own manual and end sequences provide a better look at the backstory of the characters and setting than an actual work of narrative fiction, then there's a problem. There's potential in these characters and their world, and I'm quite baffled by the creative team's inability to capitalise on that potential. Read Full Review
