I think the Snow Queen came to Storybrooke through a mirror. The mirror was a central element in the original SQ fairy tale and Cora was pushed into Wonderland through a mirror.

Moreover, SQ mentions she owns hundreds of mirrors and steals Regina's to complete her own. This makes me wonder if she has been stealing mirrors from other witches. In OUATiW, Will Scarlet stole Maleficent's magic mirror and my hunch is that he somehow brings her back inadvertently or purposely as the antagonist in arc 4B when he tries to return to Wonderland. The mirror would be an interesting connection that ties 4A and 4B together.
