Fables: The Wolf Among Us is a Digital First comic series based on the events of Telltale Games' The Wolf Among Us. It was written by Matthew Sturges and Dave Justus, and was announced during Vertigo Comic's panel on October 10th, 2014, during the 2014 New York Comic Con.[1] The first issue released on December 10th, 2014. The series came to a close on November 9th, 2015. Differing itself from its video game counterpart, it focuses not only on bringing a canon story line that otherwise was left up to the player, but on also giving the reader much more background into the supporting characters and their stories all-the-while bringing them closer to the original comic universe.
