Fables: Legends in Exile

For my History of Comics class I had to choose a comic to present to the class. I chose, along with the two others in my group, Fables: Legends in Exile by DC's Vertigo comics. It actually has a really cool story line and involves characters that mostof us know from childhood stories.

The main characters in the first volume include:

she is now divorced from prince charming and working as King Coles, mayor of Fabletown, assistant.

he plays the 'good' detective known as Bigby in the comic. who knew prince charming was a player? Well in this tale he is a greedy sex fiend, I think I actually like this version of him better than the disney one, since he finally has some personality. So, apparently Snow was his first wife and then he moved onto Cinderella, and now he is just hooking up with any woman that has money.

The story takesplace inNew York City in the secret world of Fables. All the characters of Fairyland have been chased out of their homes and had been forced to live amongst the humans in secret. In thefirst volume Snow and Bigby work together to solve the murder of Rose Red. Bigbys prime suspects are Snow, Prince Charming, Jack, and Bluebeard. Snow is Rose's sister, she is suspect because she caught Rose and her husbandat that time, prince charming, in bed together. Prince Charming is suspect because he slept with Rose. Jack is Rose's current

boyfriend and Bluebeard had a marriage contract with Rose. So what happens? Who killed Rose Red? I can't tell you but you should read it cause it is really awesome and the art work is beautiful.
