Fables Ventures into Collectibles with DC Direct's Bigby & Snow White Statue

Fans of Bill Willingham's Eisner Award-winning Vertigo series get the collectible they've been howling for with DC Comics/DC Direct's Fables Statue: Bigby & Snow White (NOV06 0309, $195.00)!

One of the publisher's most critically acclaimed series, Fables is a hit with male and female readers, thanks in part its sharp writing, in-depth characterization and innovative premise. Earning a legion of loyal fans, Fables makes its first foray into the collectible world with this new statue designed by series artist Mark Buckingham and sculpted by Jim Maddox. The inaugural piece is sure to join DC Direct's previous Vertigo-based statues – including those of Death, The Sandman, Hellblazer and Swamp Thing – among some of the industry's top sellers.

Envisioning the beauteous Snow White and her lupine husband Bigby Wolf, the former sheriff of Fabletown, this delightful 10.5" x 8" x 9" piece brings this new fairy tale romance to life. Packaged in an eye-catching four-color box, it includes a Certificate of Authenticity.

Fables fans will also want to check out the Jack of Fables Volume 1: The (Nearly) Great Escape TP (NOV06 0300, $14.99), collecting the first five issues of Willingham & Matthew Sturges' spin-off series featuring the Jack of Tales.

The Fables Statue: Bigby & Snow is scheduled to ship June 6.
