Jack of Fables by Matthew Sturges
From the pages of "Fables", the hugely imaginative story of a group of fairy tale folk exiled from their mythical homelands and forced into a secret existence in modern-day America, comes the tale of Jack of the Beanstalk fame! In this brand-new collection, the spotlight falls on the Page sisters, co-custodians of Jack's former prison, the Golden Boughs Retirement Community. Robin, Priscilla and Hilary Page's lives have been forever changed by Jack - and unless he can save the day, at least one of those lives will shortly be at an end..."Fables" creator Bill Willingham, Matthew Sturges ("Midwinter") and penciller Tony Akins ("Hellblazer: Papa Midnite") present an all-new adventure!
