Writer Bill Willingham has been behind some of the biggest happenings in comics over the past few year, notable his creation of the Vertigo title Fables, which has become a hit among fans and is constantly discovered by new readers.  Willingham, along with writer Matthew Sturges, of Blue Beetle, take the reigns of one of DC’s most expansive rosters, the Justice Society of America!
