I class Fantasy as anything set in a Fantasy World. Unlike Comics set in the real world which we already know a lot about, Fantasy Comics need to educate us about a whole new world. How well they set it up and get it across can be crucial to their success. | ||
+AnimaOn the one hand, Anima seems to be mainly aimed at a younger audience. On the other hand the material here is quite sophisticated and this definitely isn’t something that will appeal just to children. Posted Friday 25th November 2011 by Crazy Choco

Alice in the Country of HeartsNow, this is an interesting idea. Take something popular - in this case, Alice in Wonderland - then move it completely into a different genre - in this case shojo manga. It has taken a bit of skill and the willingness to completely change a few of the original characters to pull this off in a new format, but amazingly this series has turned out really well.

Angel DiaryIf you’ve read Demon Diary, which is a series by the same authors, you probably know roughly what you’re in for here: a bunch of fantasy characters hang out together, then there’s lots of politics, then they all live happily every after. Posted Saturday 19th November 2011 by Crazy Choco

Apothecarius ArgentumApothecarius Argentum has the standard medieval-fantasy setting, that’s similar to so many other comics. The series stars Argent - an apothecary - and Princess Primula - a, um, Princess. The main bread and butter of the series is the relationship between the two.
