PREVIEWS for May!!! JACK of FABLES!


Coolness; JoF is featured on the cover of PREVIEWS with a nice sample of Issue ONE art inside. Plus what Bill Willingham says about why Jack got his own series is a hoot. Here're a few files before Todd Kleins' lettering was placed.

Outstanding artwork, Tony. Thanks for letting us feast on it. The first panel on the first page is downright stunning.

B.T.W. did you know that you draw clouds that look like Chuck Jones used to draw sheep? All they need are little black sticks for legs.

LOL...Chuck JOnes sheep huhn? Stay tuned. The clouds get stranger; I noticed right off the bat. I think they've evolved into teeth. Actually when I draw them I think of the Portugese Man-O-War. The clouds have tendrils that droop down towards the Earth...

I agree, the shading on Jack in the first panel is great! I really like the whole "revisionist history" of the first two pages...great stuff!
