Magic, myth, and modern life collide in a story where fairy-tale royalty walks the streets of New York! The acclaimed Vertigo series arrives in DC's popular, portable Compact Comics format.

Imagine that all the characters from the world’s most beloved storybooks were real—real, and living among us, with all their powers intact. How would they cope with life in our mundane, unmagical reality? The answer can be found in Fables, Bill Willingham’s celebrated reimagining of the venerable fairy-tale canon. From Snow White and the Big Bad Wolf to Goldilocks and Little Boy Blue, the folktales of old are reborn here as exiles living in the magically camouflaged New York City neighborhood of Fabletown.

Acclaimed by critics and readers alike, this modern classic of comic book storytelling is collected for the first time in a compact format. Fables: No More Happily Ever After: DC Compact Comics Edition includes issues #1-10 of the award-winning series ("Legends in Exile" and "Animal Farm").
