33. Fantasy

A. This genre consists of works set in worlds where magic or the
supernatural predominate over the material, scientific world.

B. Example keywords include Mythological, Fairy-Tale

C. Examples include Pixies, Fables, and ?

As always I need a good non-US example

By the way, earlier in the process I had suggested the need for a
Fairy Tales-Folklore genre. I no longer see that need, so am
withdrawing my suggestion and removing it from the list of genres to
consider. If someone else wants to advocate for it, he needs to speak
up for me to put it back on the list of genres to consider.

Hey Presto known as the Saucy Apprentice ran in the UK's Valiant. He
was a sorcerer's apprentice in a humor strip. So it would be humor;
fantasy but the fantasy is still there.

Another fantasy feature from Valiant would be Kelly's Eye

I'm going to consider the discussion closed unless I see any new posts
today.
