BW: Mark Buckingham was my chief worry about this project. I didn’t want to do it without him, but I didn’t know if he’d be available. The often-frustrating reality about our business is the best of the best artists keep pretty busy. They aren’t just sitting around waiting for me to come along, so I was plenty worried about what we’d do if he wasn’t available. And let’s be honest: Mark Buckingham is the second-best artist working in comics to

The Hammerthyst has a damage stat of 78 which is about 20 damage lower than the late-game Master Hammer, not to mention, the Master Hammer costs about 22,000 gold while The Hammerthyst is absolutely free. If acquired early on, this legendary hammer will enable the player to dispose of foes with ease whilst simultaneously taking less damage from enemies due to the Barkskin augmentation ability of The Hammerth

**SR: These books are celebrating the return of Fables , but many fans will be marking their calendars for May 2022, and the arrival of Fables #151 . What is it like to plan and execute a "relaunch" of this series on the twentieth anniversary of its original launch

On the surface, this may seem like a simple feature, but in practice, it can lead to certain NPCs liking you more. In turn, they may be more willing to assist you (similarly to the rather Fable-esque Genshin Impact ). Along the journey, many unique items can be found to give away, or they can be purchased from a local ven

BW: For the Fables side of things the line doesn’t need to be drawn, because Fables has included the premise of all of these hundreds of different worlds from the very beginning. From Batman’s point of view, it’s potentially a bit trickier, because sometimes the DCU has been very open to the notion of many, many worlds out there, and sometimes it hasn’t b

While this game has undergone some harsh backlash after releasing, we should all remember back to the extended build up that fans all had and how exciting things were back then. CD Projekt Red promised Witcher 3 levels of choice and agency with incredible scale and graph

Every fan of personalized Gaming Experience has been extremely excited about a game release at one time or another. The most recent case might be Mass Effect fans watching promo material for the remaster release . If a big enough fan comes along, they'll find something that hints to an exciting part of the game like an easter egg for the well infor

What's not to love about the enforcer! Its a late-game monster boasting a damage stat of 177. This crudely shaped blunderbuss is quite difficult to get, requiring an end-game quest to be completed at Gile's Farm. While is is the most powerful ranged weapon in the game statistically, its lack of rapid fire, and absolutely atrocious range prevent it from being the absolute b

However, if you’re one of the readers who knows all about Fables but nothing about Batman? I’m not sure such a creature exists, but if you do, I’ve tried my best to make the essential Batman as understandable as can be. We’ll see if I’ve succee

The reveal definitely served its purpose in building up a lot of attention just before the holiday season. But this marketing came at the sacrifice of so many great plot points. Some fans felt the move a bit little shallow -- especially the hardcore fans who wanted to go in bl

Instead, those who tuned in for the event were instead treated to a long presentation about i ts new Prime Matter publishing label . In some ways, it felt more like a presentation aimed at developers and potential partners than one geared towards gamers, with very little on offer in the way of new gameplay footage and trailers. That said, there were one or two nice surprises on of

I do hope readers will consider reading the stories that have gone before, because I believe they tell an entertaining (if sprawling) story. But all along the way the Fables series has been broken into smaller stories, so that readers don’t have to be intimidated by every other Fables book out there. One advantage new readers will have, if they do want to read the other Fables books, is that we’ve recently launched our Fables Compendium editions, which collects all of Fables so far into four big books. And these were published having corrected many mistakes and typos that have existed in previous editions, finally taking care of some nagging errors I’ve been wanting to correct for years – for decades, in fact. This really is the best time to start on Fables, if you haven’t alre

**Screen Rant: With the announcement that Fables is returning, there are going to be a lot of fans breathing a sigh of relief, followed by some serious excitement. Would you say those same feelings extend to you and your team, as well

Bill Willingham: I certainly hope that the excitement is there for Fables readers, new and old, and yes, I have quite a bit of excitement too. My part of the new Fables story is already done. All twelve of the new issues have been written, so I am already past the "can I do this?" stage. Now I get to experience the great part of seeing the penciled and inked pages as they come in, then relive that moment of discovery when the colors come
