Of course, this particular panel made me think a bit. Doesn't it seem like Fairy Godmothers were the scam artists of the whole fairy-tale universe? They prey upon the young, unsuspecting and disenfranchised people. They promise all sorts of wonderful things, but, before you know it, it all blows up in the poor kid's face and she's running for her life. People often think of the Fairy Godmother with fond memories, but she's really a trouble-maker who promises things she can't deliver.
