		And fans of Willingham are in for a special treat with this new series, because not only is Willingham writing it, he is providing the art for the book as well.
		CBR News contacted writer-artist Willingham to find out how he felt about his experience writing the boy wonder, what his plans are for his new ongoing series, and how he manages to juggle all the work he has on his plate nowadays.
		Bill is one fine writer and I thought it would be a good thing to help him get his foot in the door at DC.

		Willingham uses the Wolf's investigation to introduce readers to Fabletown's dissolute, hard-luck inhabitants, and he is at his best here, relishing one-liners and spinning funky background information of a world where fairy tale characters spend their time fretting about money and thinking up get-rich schemes.
		Willingham's dialogue is humorous, his characterizations are sharp and his plot encompasses a tremendous amount of information with no strain at all.
		Willingham caps the dashingly drawn mainstream-comics-style graphic novel with a prose-only story that accounts for how Wolf got his job.

		The sixth volume in the series explores some of Bigby Wolf's extracurricular exploits around the mundane world in "Cinderella Libertine" and "War Stories" before returning to the main storyline in "The Year After," which follows the aftermath of the Adversary's attempt to conquer Fabletown.
		After being hunted and hounded by a savage being called the Adversary, the legendary characters of fables and fairytales are forced to relocate to a magical high-rise in Manhattan where romance, danger and adventure run rampant.

		Willingham clearly has an immense amount of fun playing with these characters and their histories, and the art, mostly by Buckingham, is a perfect match: clear, fanciful and finely drawn.
		The last installment of Willingham and principal artist Mark Buckingham's saga of fairy-tale characters in exile, The Mean Sea sons (2005), seemed to tread water after the cataclysm in arch of the Wooden Soldiers (2004) and before more hurly-burly.
		The five-part Homelands arc of Bill Willingham's amazing series Fables drops a huge bombshell on us by finally revealing the identity of the mysterious Adversary.

		BY JENNIFER M. Although it was recently announced that Bill Willingham is exclusive to DC Comics, the scribe was able to get some outside jobs done before the exclusivity took effect.
		WILLINGHAM: The desire to do a Burroughs-esque (Edgar Rice, not William S) swashbuckling adventure story, and the determination to leave myself a few pages to show what the character thinks about the hero trade and why it's worth doing.
		Bill Willingham has a special place with me as a creator, and while I long to see more Willingham art, he's really come into a new level as a writer.

		Although penned by Eisner-winning writer Willingham, this is an unremarkable, generic teen adventure.
		Moreover, in attempting to establish Tim as a conflicted young adult, Willingham overdoes the angst.
		It's difficult, for example, to understand how disturbed Tim is when he imagines he's killed a vicious psychopath who later shows up as the occult supervillain Johnny Warlock.

		Willingham managed to sum up my feelings about all this Infinite Crisis bitching better than I ever could.
		But Willingham has a history of saying, "Don't like what I'm doing, go screw!" which I respect to a certain degree, but not as much as I would respect someone calmly addressing whatever problems fans have with the story.
		Willingham using a same approach makes me wonder how these critically acclaimed writers handle fans who don't like something.

		I liked the first two volumes of "Fables," but felt some of the characterization was a bit uneven as Willingham developed his characters and the world of Fabletown.
		Bill Willingham's critically acclaimed, Eisner Award-winning series FABLES is a wickedly imaginative take on the current state of the world's favorite characters from fable and lore.
		The first stroy arc of Bill Willingham's Fables was very good, though it was also an introduction to the characters.

		Faced with a dilemma, he rationalizes that part of being a good superhero is working independently and sets off to follow his hunch regarding the whereabouts of the Lab's purloined artifact.
		Aside from the nicely scripted thought bubbles, Willingham seems to have a pretty good handle on writing the part of a teenage superhero's life that doesn't involve a mask and Kevlar bodysuit.
		Willingham doesn't write the angst-ridden soap opera of high school life in this issue as well as Brian Bendis does in Ultimate Spider-Man, but there's definitely potential and I think that's something Willingham should be proud of.

		I'm sure the creators of classic fables like Little Red Riding Hood and Snow white never thought the villain of one and the protagonist of the other would ever find love, but author Bill Willingham finds a way to make it work in this intelligent and beautifully illustrated story arc.
		The fables, exiled from their home world, live in Manhattan and exist as a fractured community, faced with the mundane (they call normal human Mundys) and the fantastical (Beauty's Beast turning beastial in appearance whenever she's mad at him), all under the watchful and creative eye of Willingham.
		Reading this (or the other two excellent collections), one gets the feeling Willingham has done a lot of research into the original fables and not the Disneyized versions we have come to know.
