    Jack of Fables (2006) 1

    Written by Bill Willingham & Matthew Sturges. Art by Tony Akins & Andrey Pepoy. Cover by James Jean. Everyone's favorite trickster is back ? now in his own monthly series written by FABLES creator Bill Willingham and prose writer Matthew Sturges (Midwinter, Beneath the Skin and Other Stories) and featuring art by Tony Akins (HELLBLAZER: PAPA MIDNITE) & Andrew Pepoy (FABLES) and covers by James Jean. After stealing money from Fabletown and pissing off all the wrong people, Jack of the Tales ? who is at once every Jack of legend ? was booted out of the Fables community. But for Jack, there was no better way to strike back than starring in his own series. Last seen hitchhiking from Hollywood after releasing a trilogy of films (about himself) that made him an international superstar, the series follows Jack's immediate adventures as a wayward Fable in the heartland of America. His extreme road stories and encounters with other notorious, renegade Fables are just a few of the situations in store for this fan-favorite character of the multiple Eisner Award-winning FABLES series. Willingham remarked, "The only way to stop Jack from stinking up the regular FABLES series was to offer him his own spin-off book, so really we had no choice." ? 32 pg, FC ?

    The small town of Hamlein is peaceful and... well, pretty boring. Nothing exciting ever happens. That is, until the day an alien spaceship lands in the town square! But the critters on board are more adorable than evil, and everyone in the town is instantly enamored by them. Only Dr. Polly Piper and 12-year-old twins Tommy and Gerta Friedrichs think there's more to the alien visitors than meets the eye.

    Will the twins, Dr. Piper, and her pet pig Hamish be able to prove that the cute creatures are actually bent on taking over the town? Or will the aliens overtake the quiet town of Hamlein in their quest for world domination?
