And so floats lifes boats



BELOW is one of James Jean's covers for the graphic novel series Fables. Fables is a series I have been following for a few years now and even after 80+ issues it manages to enthrall me. The duo of Willingham and Buckingham have proven to be one of the most impressive writing/illustration teams of modern graphic novels. The story focuses on various characters from fantasy and folk tales passed down for centuries (including many characters created by the Brothers Grimm) as they live life in New York after being run out of their magical homelands by and evil emperor. Love, loss, longing, and every other aspect of life is beautifully portrayed in this absurd world of fantasy and magic.
