About the series
In this nine-issue DC series from 2007–2011, the wisecracking, immortal trickster known as Jack—a former Fable exiled from his homeland—embarks on a solo adventure that redefines his role in the wider Fables universe. Writers Matthew Sturges and Bill Willingham, alongside artists Tony Akins, Russ Braun, and Andrew Robinson, craft a fast-paced, darkly humorous tale that explores Jack's roguish charm and his uneasy relationship with the forces that govern his kind. A spin-off of the acclaimed Fables series, Jack of Fables stands out for its playful deconstruction of fairy-tale archetypes and its focus on a charismatic antihero who refuses to play by anyone's rules.
