Other Trivia: A comic book about a Rapunzel who is a cowgirl and daring action heroine, set in the oppressed, perilous yet enchanting wild Western: it is as exciting as it sounds. Full of action, drama, comedy, emotion, magic, family and companionship. As well as revenge, though that is the least intriguing thing about Rapunzel's story. She is a fully-realized, complex human being - a heroine. One drawback to her is that she is the only white main character in the comic, where everyone else is indigenous. Also appears in the sequel, Calamity Jack, where the focus is on her love interest, the thief with a heart of gold, Jack (not to be confused with Tangled).
I've always enjoyed reading this retelling of Rapunzel. :) I love how they made her into a strong willed fighter character. :D
