Summary: HUGELY RECOMMENDED!
Review: I read about 3 books a week and this book has made me think more about what I believe than any book I have ever read. It's basically about what could possibly happen if someone decided to start buying the souls of the athiests everywhere in the world and paying them good money for them.

Imagine the philosophical questions that arise from the premise of this book!

Do we truly own our own souls? If so, can we sell them? If we can sell them, what are they worth and what can someone else do with them? Do we have to be dead for them to use them or do they have dominion over us already? Is there power to be gained for ownership of souls???

So many questions, so few answers.

Summary: Surprisingly fantastic!
Review: When I first laid eyes on this book, I thought it was something new from Bill Winningham, unaware that this is in fact a reprint of a 6-issue run from Vertigo way back in 1999. I decided to give it a shot anyway, fearful that it would be reminiscent of so many other collections I have read from suddenly famous writers and/or artists that had been reprinted solely to capitalize upon the new fame - in this case, Winningham's ground-breaking monthly, "Fables." Turns out that I was pleasantly wrong in my assumption - this work is every bit as good (if not better) than his work on Fables. The comic value is top-notch, the art is great, and the characters are well written and 3 dimensional. As I am writing this, Amazon does not appear to sell the book quite yet, but it's available in stores - so take my advice and pick up a copy, it's well worth it!
