Imagine that the world’s most beloved storybook characters were real-real and living among us, with all of their powers intact. How would they cope with life in our mundane reality? The answer can be found in FABLES, Bill Willingham’s celebrated reimagining of the venerable fairy tale canon.

WINNER OF FOURTEEN EISNER AWARDS. The final battle between the free Fables of the mundane world and the Empire occupying their former Homelands is about to begin, and the scrappy storybook heroes have already managed to even the odds considerably. With his previously unstoppable wooden soldiers neutralized, the Adversary is about to get his first taste of high technology in the form of steel-jacketed bullets and laser-guided bombs. But the ruler who conquered a hundred different worlds didn-t do it by fighting clean-and he-s still got a surprise or two left to spring on the residents of Fabletown. Collects issues #70-75 in Bill Willingham-s Eisner Award-winning Vertigo series.

WINNER OF FOURTEEN EISNER AWARDS. The community of Fables living undercover in our midst has endured plenty of suffering at the hands of their longtime antagonist, the Adversary. Now it-s time to return the favor and put the would-be conqueror on notice that the cost of subjugating this last stronghold of independent magic will be higher than even he can bear. The one Fable who can accomplish this mission, however, has hidden himself in the wild and will take some convincing-if he can ever be found. Luckily for Fabletown, there is something more than a trip behind enemy lines awaiting Bigby Wolf-s return-. Collects issues #48-51 in Bill Willingham-s Eisner Award-winning Vertigo series.
