Castle Waiting

Linda Medley’s beloved fairy-tale saga Castle Waiting returned to Fantagraphics in 2013 with a single, oversized issue, picking up the story of the eclectic inhabitants of its titular fortress. Known for its warm, detailed art and deep, character-driven storytelling, this volume offers a self-contained glimpse into the castle’s ongoing life, bridging the acclaimed earlier graphic novels. Though brief, it’s a welcome new chapter from a creator whose work has quietly redefined the modern fairy-tale comic.
