In the shadowed alleys of New York, a world unlike any other thrives in secrecy. "Fables" by Bill Willingham transports us into the heart of Fabletown, a clandestine community where characters from the most beloved fairy tales and folklore live disguised as ordinary humans. Here, legends walk the streets, their timeless tales unfolding in the modern age, far from the tyrannical grip of the Adversary who usurped their realms. Within this sanctuary, these iconic figures strive to preserve the remnants of their former lives, their magic mingling with the mundane. But tranquility is shattered when Snow White discovers her sister, Rose Red, entangled in a mystery that bears the mark of their world's darkest deeds. The prime suspects: Bluebeard, the infamous noble with a history of slaying his spouses, and Jack, a notorious trickster with a penchant for trouble. At the heart of this intrigue is Bigby Wolf, Fabletown's sheriff, whose task is to navigate a labyrinth of lies and uncover a truth that could threaten the very fabric of their fragile community. "Fables" weaves a captivating narrative that reimagines the fates of the most cherished characters in folklore, proving that their stories are far from over.
