Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #327

Fables #150 — Writer: Bill Willingham; Pencils: Mark Buckingham; Inks: Steve Leioaloha, Andrew Pepoy, Dan Green and Jose Marzan, Jr.; Colors: Lee Loughridge We’re breaking the pattern of starting with Marvel’s Secret Wars tie-ins this week, to acknowledge the last issue of Fables, DC’s long-running Vertigo title about fairy tales living on Earth (and, before you accuse it of ripping off TV shows like One Upon a Time or Grimm, do the math: it was around long before they were).

The Wicked and the Divine #1 — Writer: Kieron Gillen; Art: Jamie McKelvie Iron Man #28 — Writer: Kieron Gillen; Pencils: Joe Bennett, Cliff Richards and Derlis Santacruz; Inks: Scott Hanna and Rick Magyar Gillen’s one of the better writers in comics right now, and his first big splash was Phonogram — especially the second volume, a multiple-perspective tale of one night in a dance hall, and the magical effects of the music played there on its listeners. That was a collaboration with McKelvie, too, and the team went on to create one of last year’s best mainstream series, Young Avengers; … Continue reading
