As the title indicates, this comic concentrates on stories of fantasy in all of its myriad forms.

Fables and fairy tales all fit comfortably between the covers of this beautiful publication. With stories by Bruce Jones, Christina Rossetti, April Campbell, and Jeff Jones. And art by Barry Windsor-Smith, Jeffrey Jones, John Bolton, Lela Dowling, and Scott Hampton. It’s an anthology from independent publisher Pacific Comics, focusing on high fantasy and showcasing some of the top fantasy artists in comics at the time.
