First came Fairy Quest from Paul Jenkins and Humberto Ramos. Funded on Kickstarter, published by Boom, it spawned a sequel. And was much liked.

You get the jist. And while that book is continuing from Jenkins and Ramos, it is also spinning off into a new series of tales set in the same reality.

Welcome to Fiction Squad from Paul Jenkins and Ramon Bachs, starting with the observation that all chilren's fairy stories are, in fact, crime scenes. Humpty Dumpty? All the king's men made a hash out of that one. Cock Robin? Luckily they got a full and frank confession on that one. Sing A Song Of Sixpence? There were witnesses to the blackbird mutiliation of the maid.

Here's the bumf….

FICTION SQUAD takes place in the world of FAIRY QUEST, the Fablewood-set story about Red and Woof as they fight against the system in order to remain best friends. But Fablewood is a giant place—there are thousands of people, and, much like everyday life, each one has their own story. FICTION SQUAD posits that every nursery rhyme you know is actually the result of a crime. The City of Rimes is controlled by two mafia families, the Queens of the Card Crime Syndicate and the Wicked Witches of the East and West Side. It's up to failed detective Frankie Mack and his partner, Simple Simon, to prevent a full-scale war from breaking out after Humpty Dumpty and the Wicked Witch of the East both meet untimely demises under suspicious circumstances.

And here's the Kickstarter to help fund the product to fruition. And lots more art as well…
