This week our intrepid critics take a look at fairy tale cartoons.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>We first hear fairy tales at an impressionable age, usually before we can read. The characters and their magical stories are part of our collective memory. That makes them a rich source for cartoon gags, as cartoonists don&#8217;t need to explain who the characters are or the circumstances they find themselves in.<\/p>\n<p>The trick of the cartoonist, as is often the case, is to defy our expectations in a surprising and clever way. One approach is to alter a principal character. Danny Shanahan does that with wordplay that assumes knowledge of both a popular fairy tale and the less accessible story of Beowulf. The cartoon succeeds by combining wildly different literary forms.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartooncollections.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC124924\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4769\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/CC124924_Shanahan.jpg\" alt=\"fairytale cartoons\" width=\"500\" height=\"403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/CC124924_Shanahan.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/CC124924_Shanahan-300x242.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/CC124924_Shanahan-768x618.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"smfont\" align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartooncollections.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC124924\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BUY THIS CARTOON<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another technique is to focus on the story&#8217;s most memorable moment and drain it of its drama.

Zach Kanin does that and more, depicting a bored Little Red Riding Hood living improbably with the wolf who ate her grandmother. There&#8217;s a lot wrong\u2014and funny\u2014about this cartoon. Didn&#8217;t a hunter shoot the wolf? Granny had a wedding dress?

Robert Leighton&#8217;s prince takes a more considered approach to finding a life partner than is usual for the love-blind male found in fairy tales. The inverse sentence construction of &#8220;This kind of aggravation I don&#8217;t need&#8221; gives the gag line a modern flavor.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartooncollections.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC120521\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4775\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/CC120521_Leighton.jpg\" alt=\"fairytale cartoons\" width=\"500\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/CC120521_Leighton.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/CC120521_Leighton-300x243.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cartoonstock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/CC120521_Leighton-768x622.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"smfont\" align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartooncollections.com\/cartoon?searchID=CC120521\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BUY THIS CARTOON<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Another cartoon that considers a lesser character is this depiction of a fairy godmother on the proverbial therapist&#8217;s couch by Bruce Eric Kaplan.
