	What is Fantasy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		As a genre, fantasy is both associated and contrasted with science fiction and horror fiction.
		In the 19th and early 20th centuries, much fantasy was published in the same magazines as science fiction (and often written by the same authors).
		Comic fantasy -- especially the works of Terry Pratchett -- should also be mentioned here, which parodies the above ideas as well as ideas outside the genre, in a postmodern manner.

	Fantasy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fantasy is a genre of art that uses magic and other supernatural forms as a primary element of plot, theme, or setting.
		In this sense, the history of fantasy and the history of literature are inextricably intertwined.
		The history of modern fantasy literature begins with George MacDonald, the Scottish author of such novels as The Princess and the Goblin and Phantastes, the latter of which is widely considered to be the first fantasy novel ever written for adults.

	Feyenne :: An Online Fantasy Comic. Mmm, filler... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Anyway, if you enjoyed this comic at all, you may want to check out this other comic by a friend of mine, which, I am told, has a similar style.
		This comic had a long run -- two years is almost unimaginable in the webcomicking world.
		As early as the beginning of the fourth chapter, I was growing increasingly frustrated with all the story-related snarls, gaps, and general issues I'd managed to work into the comic.

	06-01-06 - A Great Resource: Fairborn, OH’s Bookery Fantasy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		For schools, visiting and patronizing the comic book store gives teachers an opportunity to see another side of their students and figure out which properties and stories motivate them to read.

	Comic Book Galaxy - Celebrating Five Years of Pushing Comix Forward
		The problem I’ve always had with the fantasy genre is that the typical fantasy world of forests and elves never appealed to me. Of course that’s a horrible over-simplification of what fantasy movies/comics/books offer and anyone who is a real fan will see so much more to it than that.
		I suppose that’s why the first two issues of this comic worked for me. If it had to be classified under any category, not an easy task, it would be fantasy.
		Yet Smith has come up with a comic that is so unique, you will never find characters that speak like the ones in here, that it can be enjoyed by anyone looking for a good story.

	Thalia Muses on "What Is Fantasy?"
		In general, "fantasy" is fiction in which things can exist and happen that would not normally exist and happen in our waking lives.
		Unlike science fiction, it is permissible in fantasy to violate physical laws as we know them, even to flout logic itself -- although most modern readers favor stories in which the fantasy elements are consistent within themselves; if you are going to have magic, have it follow its own logical system.
		This is an example of "urban fantasy", by one of the pillars of the genre.

		If you like Pratchett, Holt, Eddings, Wynne Jones, and various other comic fantasy authors, and you're tired of waiting for their next book, this gives a more than satisfying read while you wait.
		On par with this story is the comic gem "Touched by a Salesman" which is Tom Holt at his reverential, laugh-out-loud best.
		Unfortunately, as is wont, "The Mammoth Book of Awesome Comic Fantasy" has an affinity for missing a lot of its targets, too (Jack Sharkey, Michael Coney, John Morressy, Tina Rath, Larry Lawrence, Stan Nicholls, Craig Shaw Gardner, E. Grant, Marilyn Todd, and Esther Friesner-what was she thinking?).

	Incubus - A 19th Century Fantasy Comic

		Comic strip super-heroes, from 40s and 50s comic books and other sources have also been the subjects of numerous fantasy (and action hero/heroine) films, almost too many to mention fully.
		And the fantasy comedy The Mask (1994) starred Jim Carrey as a hyperactive, green-skinned superhero whenever he donned a magical mask (produced by Industrial Light and Magic's CGI effects) - similar to the antics of cartoon characters created by Tex Avery in the golden age of animation.

		The comic is not, however, a serious epic; much of the humor displayed in 8-Bit Theater is derived from the blunderings and misadventures of the protagonists and their foes.
		He has also stated that the comic will not feature the element of time travel that the game featured towards the end of the story ([2]).
