This is a great arc, primarily because Willingham isn’t worried about changing up the status quo. (I really miss Jack in the Fables comic!) Unlike the caper that kicks off Legends in Exile, this one feels important to the comic as a whole (though still a different sort of story than we’d later get). Another fun story, particularly for its intro of Briar Rose and for seeing a bunch of characters work together who we usually wouldn’t expect to. I would have much preferred to see these in the Jack of Fables series than what we got. This American Jack story is a lot of fun. I am hopeful of other tales from the world coming into play because, really, it's just too many white people doing rich white people things and I can go up to Cherry Creek if I want that.īag O’ Bones. And so is my memory.Īnyway, I think I'm excited to enter some new territory. 3 to see if it started out with the illustrated version of that story because Gabe has it at work. It's the tiger, not the wolf, standing on her) Am I totally misremembering that? I couldn't look at Vol. Isn't that where the wolf-standing-on-Snow part of the cover from the first deluxe edition came from? (Nevermind. There were some I didn't.Īnd the Wolf Meets Snow And Her Sister story at the end of this volume, wasn't it illustrated when it first came out? Like, in comic format, I mean, and not with three B&W full-page pictures that accompany the story. There were some stories in here I still enjoyed. 1, re-reading this was much less enjoyable than reading those stories had been the first time around.
I'm still pretty meh on these new deluxe editions.I say after reading only the second one.
In the early 2000s he began writing extensively for DC Comics, including the limited series Proposition Player, a pair of limited series about the Greek witch Thessaly from The Sandman, and most notably the popular series Fables He produced the 13-issue Pantheon for Lone Star Press and wrote a pair of short novels about the modern adventures of the hero Beowulf, published by the writer's collective, Clockwork Storybook, of which Willingham was a founding member. In the late 1990s Willingham reestablished himself as a prolific writer. He also produced the pornographic series Ironwood for Eros Comix. He contributed stories to Green Lantern and started his own independent, black-and-white comics series Coventry which lasted only 3 issues. However, for reasons unknown, the series had trouble maintaining an original schedule, and Willingham's position in the industry remained spotty for many years. He first gained attention for his 1980s comic book series Elementals published by Comico, which he both wrote and drew. In the late 1970s to early 1980s he drew fantasy ink pictures for the Dungeons & Dragons Basic and Expert game rulebooks.
