Also in this week’s edition of the AV Club, an interview with Bill Willingham, the writer/creator of Fables, which is perhaps one of the most interesting and consistently good non-superhero comics around these days. If you haven’t come across it, here’s a precis of the first trade paperback:

When a savage creature known only as the Adversary conquered the fabled lands of legends and fairy tales, all of the infamous inhabitants of folklore were forced into exile. Disguised among the normal citizens of modern-day New York, these magical characters have created their own peaceful and secret society within an exclusive luxury apartment building called Fabletown. But when Snow White’s party-girl sister, Rose Red, is apparently murdered, it is up to Fabletown’s sheriff, a reformed and pardoned Big Bad Wolf, to determine if the killer is Bluebeard, Rose’s ex-lover and notorious wife killer, or Jack, her current live-in boyfriend and former beanstalk-climber.

Fables evolves into some pretty dark and disturbing story-lines. Although, I guess it wasn’t that much of a leap for Goldilocks to become a murderous talking-animal rights activist.
