Fable Comics: anthology of great comics artists telling fables from around the world


Contributors to this volume include James “Glorkian Warrior” Kolchaka, Jaime Hernandez, Vera “Anya’s Ghost” Brosgol, Israel Sanchez, and many, many, many more.

This book was a bed-time favorite in our house for a week — it’s perfect for bedtime, with short stories that can be read in twos or threes. And it passed the ultimate stress-test: I kept discovering that my daughter was sneaking off and reading ahead on her own. That’s the gold standard.

Firstsecond graciously gave permission for me to include four of my favorite stories from the book below. Have a read on them!
