Fables #42

In "Arabian Nights (and Days) Chapter One: Broken English," the arrival of the Arabians in Fabletown sparks a whirlwind of misunderstandings and cultural clashes, all wrapped in a story that’s as sharp as it is humorous. Bill Willingham’s writing, brought to life by Mark Buckingham’s expressive art and Steve Leialoha’s crisp inks, captures the chaos of communication in a world where even the simplest words can unravel. The cover by James Jean adds a dreamlike, surreal edge to the whole affair.
