Fables #94

Vertigo's Fables #94 opens the "Rose Red" arc with a hauntingly beautiful cover by João Ruas — a red-haired woman curled in a dreamlike repose, a brass instrument resting near her, the whole image rendered in delicate, sketch-like tones that feel both tender and melancholy. The mood is quietly spellbinding, hinting at a story that turns inward rather than outward. With Willingham, Buckingham, and Leialoha collaborating on the interior, this 2010 Vertigo gem is a compelling entry point for one of the series' most personal chapters.
