Jack of Fables, Vol. 1: The (Nearly) Great Escape by Bill Willingham

3.0

Not a bad start to the Jack of Fables series.
It starts where we last saw Jack in Hollywood bring stripped of his success, riches and Nimble Studios by Fabletown.
New characters are introduced as well as the return is everyone's favourite golden haired criminally insane Fable.
I often find the Jack character a little irritating but that is also the point of Jack of Tales. He's an arrogant, self-obsessed, lying, monologue driven douche who gets into some serious schenanigans which just so happen to be entertaining stories.
Bill Willingham and Co continue to produce a great story, art and immersive world with characters where you want to read their exploits.
It may not be as good as Fables, but this is only Volume 1 and I'm more than willing to give the series a fair trial.
