Mark Buckingham Part One

A Fabled Career

Mark Buckingham

With Fables having just ended, we thought it was an appropriate time to have a chat with its artist Mark Buckingham to discuss how he feels now it has come to its conclusion. We also chatted to him about returning to Miracleman, now published by Marvel, and much more. We decided to split the interview into two as it was originally designed as a Studio Space feature but since he talked at length about Fables and Miracleman, part one deals with those subjects while part two, which we’ll be putting up next week, is focused on his studio and how he works.
