- 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.
