29.Jul.2009 Fables Vol 2: Animal Farm by Bill Willingham
In this second volume of Fables, Snow White and her sister Red Rose goes to visit Animal Farm, a place where all the fables that don’t pass as humans live. It’s interesting to see all the non-human creatures take the stage this time, but I didn’t get how some of them live there, like the [...]
