Fables

In this French-language revival published by Urban Comics from 2012 to 2016, Fables reimagines classic fairy-tale characters as displaced refugees living in a hidden New York City neighborhood. The eleven-issue series, written by Bill Willingham with art by Mark Buckingham and Steve Leialoha, delves into the political and personal struggles of these exiled figures as they navigate a gritty, modern world. A key entry in the Vertigo-style canon, this run expands on the original American series with a distinct European sensibility, exploring themes of identity, community, and survival.
