Snow White was a legendary fairy-tale Princess with whom Jenny Everywhere was familiar. One incarnation of her, who existed in the world known as Hideea, became disillusioned with true love and turned to evil, gaining the alias of the Sorcerous and coming into conflict with a visiting Jenny.
Biography
The Snow White encountered by Jenny Everywhere in Hideea originally lived through events much like the common fairy tale, although it appeared her lover was a Knight rather than a Prince; notably, she was raised and threatened by a vain stepmother who was a student of witchcraft.
However, after she turned 35, her husband became unfaithful and eventually left her for “a bar wench”. The depressed Snow White spent years blaming herself for losing him, and was driven insane, coming to empathise with her late stepmother's plight to the point that she studied her books of Dark Magic. Assuming the part of Evil Queen, she instituted a reign of terror over her domain, having all women said to be more attractive than herself executed. Though not cutting ties with noblemen of the courts such as Sir Parsifal, she brought an army of Monster Men to the castle as her guards. The Dwarves, who now referred to her as “the Sorcerous”, were also loyal to her despite her evil.
Eventually, an easily-angered incarnation of Jenny Everywhere arrived in Hideea and learned of the Queen's evil firsthand when the Dwarves attempted to capture her and bring her to the Castle. Though she evaded the Dwarves easily, she returned to the Castle bearing arms, and fought her way through the Queen's retinue of Monster Men. Snow White tried to explain her point of view to Jenny, who rejected her pessimistic, self-serving worldview and punched her to the ground. (COMIC: Beauty as a Beast)
Behind the scenes
As Beauty as a Beast is a loving parody of the style, and loose universe, of Disney's vintage fairy-tale pictures, Queen Snow White's evil garb makes her resemble the villainous faerie Maleficent in Disney's Sleeping Beauty, especially her headdress and her scepter. Her dwelling in a castle guarded by monstrous humanoids of low intelligence also appears to be a reference to Maleficent. However, the Beauty as a Beast Snow White's physical features scarcely resemble the Disney version of Snow White's, and she mentions her former beloved as a Knight rather than a Prince.
