Abstract
"A collection of comics by twenty cartoonists from the Spring 2015 Advanced Making Comics Workshop as taught by Professor Lynda Barry." They add a lovely tag: "Nulla dies sine linea." This is an encouraging gathering of various approaches via comics cartoons to understanding and visualizing traditional fables and creating new fables. Some of the twenty create, as in the story of the frog who wanted to fly, got his wings at the bottom of the sea, and ended up an "abamination." FK, WC, and DW, for example, follow the traditional fable in strong portrayals. Other fables go in other directions, some not clear to me. Here is a noble experiment with varied results!
