Launch Trailer For Telltale’s ‘Fables’ Game ‘The Wolf Among Us’ Released; Episode 1 Arrives Tomorrow
  |  @   |  

A launch trailer has been released for The Wolf Among Us, the new episodic title from Telltale Games, developers of one of the best games of last year, The Walking Dead. Episode 1 of the series, titled “Faith,” will be released tomorrow.

The new game is based on the hit Bill Willingham comic series Fables, which takes all of our beloved fairy tale characters, and dumps them into a very dark and gritty and much, much more adult-aimed world, where they exist among humans. Just like The Walking Dead, the events of the game are set before the first issue of the comics, so you can still play if you’ve not yet read it…and then immediately go out and read it.

Watch Now: Debut Trailer For Telltale’s ‘Fables’ Game ‘The Wolf Among Us’
  |  @   |  

Telltale Games’ point-and-click take on The Walking Dead was one of the best video games released last year, elevating the developer to another level. Before the much anticipated second season of that game arrives, Telltale has another exciting project on the way, titled The Wolf Among Us.

That may not sound familiar at first, but the game is an adaptation of another excellent comic, Bill Willingham‘s dark take on the world of fairy tales for Vertigo and DC, Fables.

A debut trailer for episode one of the game, titled “Faith,” has been released online, and you can check out how the game looks below.

It’s always a safe bet to trust your gut. Way back in February I wrote a lukewarm review of the new Fantasy book from Chris Roberson (Superman, co-publisher of Monkey Brain Comics) Memorial #3. I said, in essence:

What I just read is the middle of a larger story. It was ok, but it’s too early to say if the bigger book will be any good just yet.

I suspected it would deliver, but I’m kind of a coward sometimes. Add to that, for whatever personal reasons Fantasy is not a genre I’m usually drawn to. I have massive respect for your Elf Quests and Conan The Barbarians for their craftsmanship, but for as far back as I can remember it’s never been my bag, y’know?
