Mike Carey's "The Unwritten" #1

Scans from Mike Carey's new fantasy series for Vertigo, The Unwritten.

Tommy Taylor is the young, Harry Potter-ish hero of an extremely popular series of children's books.



Tom Taylor is the now adult inspiration for the character, and the son of the missing author. He makes a living on the convention circuit. He's polite to his fans, but he's uncomfortable living in the shadow of his father's creation--the young "him" who never existed.




But Tom is more fictional than he realizes.



Tom's life quickly becomes much more complicated.

This looks like a promising series, especially if you're a book nerd (like I am). The first issue is only $1 for 32 pages, so it's worth the look!

To bad it's DC, this guy and Patsy Walker could share stories. Then the could be visited by the real Christopher Robin (or his ghost, I dont know if he's still alive) and listen to his take on the matter.
