If you haven't read Bill Willingham's multiple-Eisner-winning comic book series
Fables, here's your chance to dip your toes into something amazing. Tell Tale Games is about to launch
The Wolf Among Us, a series that takes place before the first issue of
Fables. You will be placed in the role of Bigby Wolf, known formerly as The Big Bad Wolf, the sheriff of the underground community of exiled fairy tales. Your job is to maintain order in a society of mythical creatures and keep it under wraps from the mundane world- no easy task considering some of the citizens are Mr. Toad looking to car-jack his next wild-ride, Chain-smoking little pigs, booze-soaked flying monkeys, and let's not forget the badass bureaucratic Snow White.

The Wolf Among Us, 'Faith' launches worldwide on October 11th for the Xbox Games Store for $4.99. A Season Pass is also available, allowing you to purchase the rest of the series (episodes 2-5) for $14.99, instead of paying $4.99 per episode.
