VERY FINE/NEAR MINT

(W) Bill Willingham

Bill Willingham presents a new series starring the female FABLES. Balancing horror, humor and adventure, FAIREST explores the secret histories of Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel, Cinderella, The Snow Queen, Thumbelina, Snow White, Rose Red and others. The first 6 issue arc follows the misadventures of Briar Rose after she is stolen away by the goblin army in FABLES #107. Fan-favorite artist Phil Jimenez (WONDER WOMAN, THE INVISIBLES) returns to Vertigo to pencil the opening storyline. Award-winning cover artist Adam Hughes provides covers, starting with a wraparound cover on issue #1.

BONUS REVIEW by John Doc Schaefer

So far Fables has begat several successful spin-off series. My favorite being the first Cinderella mini-series. And now the boys and girls in the lands beyond present us with this little gem. However, beware this is not some Grimm Fairy Tales knock-off, no matter how beautiful the cover is. The focus of the story may be the women of Fables but there is an intricate storyline to this book. The first issue actually picks up on a story thread from Fables #107 and features the rogue known as Ali Baba and his new bottle imp pal Jonah Panghammer. The first girls actually appear is on like page 17. So what we have here is an interesting dichotomy of a book. If you read the preorder ads and saw the cover, you were looking forward to a book devoting itself to the hot babes of the Fables universe. However, after you get past the cover, you get the beginning of a fascinating storyline that means you actually have to read the words on the page and not just stare at the pictures. Well played, Clerks! Well played! And it would be a crime not to mention the exquisite Adam Hughes Cover! Zounds!
