FABLES FOR JAPAN

FABLES FOR JAPAN is a three-book series containing prose, sequential comic art, poetry and more created to raise money for the victim's of Japan's earthquake and tsunami one year ago.

I'm very proud to have contributed a story with the super-talented MARK WHEATLEY to the second volume of the series, which features a cover by another super-talented friend of mine, V For Vendetta artist DAVID LLOYD.

Books I and II are already available as PDF downloads. All the money goes to charity as there is no print cost and all the creators have donated their efforts.
