Trivia

 * Although most issues feature the village as a side story to the main story, this is the only comic to effectively focus on the village, due to the cover focusing on the possibility of Gaston actually winning Belle's hand in marriage, and also the comic ending with the village tavern.
 * Oddly, the ending of the comic implies that the incident of Gaston being utterly humiliated and Belle saying "no" to him seems to imply that he was fuming about Laura disguising herself as Belle and not his being thrown out into the mud like in the film.
