Marty Basto is the founder of Fables and comic book creator. Marty was originally a Development Producer, but having grown tired of not having control over his own creations, he started Fables – the creator-first community for indie creators.

Launched in October 2024, Fables is a Canadian-built webcomic platform created by creators for creators. Readers have explored the platform over 4 million times. Fables was founded with the goal of giving creators the tools they need to make their work shine while maintaining as much creative freedom and control as if they were running their own website, but without the technical burden that often comes with it.

You can discover more about Fables online at Fables.pro and Instagram at @fables.pro
