Graphic Novel
Bill Willingham’s critically acclaimed, Eisner Award-winning
series FABLES is a wickedly imaginative take on the current
state of the world’s favorite characters from fable and lore. This original hardcover collection is set in the early days
of Fabletown, long before the FABLES series began. Traveling
in Arabia as an Ambassador from the exiled FABLES community,
Snow White is captured by the local sultan who wants to
marry her (and then kill her). But the clever Snow attempts
to charm the sultan instead by playing Scheherazade, telling
him fantastic stories for a total of 1001 nights. Running the gamut from uncomfortable horror to dark intrigue
to mercurial coming-of-age, FABLES:1001 NIGHTS OF SNOWFALL
reveals the secret histories of familiar FABLES characters
through a series of compelling and visually illustrative
tales. Writer Bill Willingham is joined by an impressive
array of artists, including Charles Vess, Brian Bolland,
John Bolton, Michael Wm. Kaluta, James Jean, Tara McPherson,
Derek Kirk Kim, Esao Andrews, Mark Buckingham, Mark Wheatley
and Jill Thompson. FABLES: 1001 NIGHTS OF SNOWFALL is both a
welcomed entry point to the critically acclaimed series and
an essential part of Willingham’s enchanting and imaginative
FABLES mythos.
