"Fables" is the hugely imaginative story of a group of fairy tale characters exiled from their mythical homelands and forced into a secret existence in modern-day America. Featuring such familiar names as Snow White, Prince Charming and Bigby (formerly Big Bad) Wolf, this is hard-edged fantasy in the grand tradition of "The Sandman". A visit to Fabletown by the "Arabian Fables", led by Sinbad, soon takes a grim turn when it's revealed the delegation have brought with them a mighty genie! But to what nefarious use do these foreign Fables intend to put this D'Jinn?
