What is a Fablerism?
It is a post that does not pertain to profiling or interviewing an artist of any sort, nor does it (predominantly) discuss critical items to Canadian indie comic creators.
In this post specifically, we talk news about The Fabler.com’s overhaul, Free Comic Book Day, the Siegel/Warner Bros. litigation hearings, and Scott McCloud.

Whether your answer is the former or the latter, you should read this post. Also if you just want a handy directory to aid in Twitter-stalking your favorite comic creators.

The Fabler Blog: Where Progress is Job # 1.
We’ve reached that magical 100 day benchmark that political pundits love to reflect on in new governments. If we were Barack Obama, there would already be comics featuring Fabler guest appearances popping up in comic shop windows everywhere.
