Fables #84

Part four of nine in "The Great Fables Crossover" arrives with a memorably surreal cover by Joao Ruas — a smirking, long-haired figure rising through a hole in what appears to be a tiled floor covered in scattered, handwritten notes, clutching a worn leather briefcase and radiating an unsettling golden glow. It's a striking visual that perfectly captures the mischievous, larger-than-life energy this crossover event promises. Willingham and Sturges team with Tony Akins, Andrew Pepoy, and Dan Green to keep the nine-part saga rolling in this July 2009 Vertigo release.
