Fables 3

In the latest deluxe FABLES hardcover, Little Red Riding Hood makes a dramatic reappearance, only to clash with Bigby Wolf.

Bill Willingham’s runaway hit series FABLES with this latest volume collecting the series in hardcover for the first time.

When Little Red Riding Hood suddenly walks through the gate between this world and the lost Fable Homelands, she’s welcomed as a miraculous survivor by nearly everyone – everyone except her old nemesis, Bigby Wolf, who smells espionage and subversion – not survival. But will he be able to prove his case before disaster strikes? And how will it all affect Prince Charming’s upstart campaign to become the new mayor of Fabletown?

Bill Willingham has been writing, and sometimes drawing, comics for more than 20 years.

His work has been nominated for many awards, including the Eisner, Harvey, and Ignatz comic industry awards and the International Horror Guild award. He lives somewhere near a good poker room.
