Our fantasy-genre series starts off with “Fables” by Bill Willingham. Sent running from their homelands by some unseen adversary, all the fairy tale and storytime characters escape to the New York City of our world. As they try and cope with this new surrounding, we get a great detective story, unfolding character, and wonderful art. Plus, we discuss why this comic shows up on so many “Girl Comics” blog lists.

This week we get all kinds of meta with Grant Morrison by reading “Animal Man: Deus Ex Machina.” In one of the most groundbreaking comics ever, the idea of breaking the fourth wall comes at us in all new ways, both literal and metaphorical. The art by Chas Truong fits all the 80’s stereotypes but still finds a way to land the big frames. Really, this is a title full of crazy shit that just so happens to work out wonderfully.
