Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Unwritten is a Vertigo Comics series by Mike Carey and Peter Gross, whom you might know as the principal creative team behind Lucifer. The series started in July 2009 and tells the story of Tom Taylor, son of an ultra-successful fantasy novelist who disappeared mysteriously at the height of his career. The protagonist of his father's Tommy Taylor series was obviously based on him, causing Tom no small amount of resentment. He is the constant center of attention for fans who want to meet "the real Tommy Taylor". At the same time, he isn't above cashing in by appearing at book shows and signings.However, his life is turned upside down when it turns out that records of Tom's life are incomplete, and that he might be adopted, or just a fraud. Public outrage is instantly sparked, but things get even weirder when some of the more obsessive fans start believing he's Tommy Taylor made manifest. Soon afterward, he's attacked by what seems to be the vampiric Big Bad of the Tommy Taylor novels, Count Ambrosio. He's only barely rescued by Lizzie Hexam, the same woman who sprung the secret of his origin to the public, and who has some kind of connection to his missing father. The boundary between reality and fiction starts to blur as Tom sets out to discover the truth, while also being hunted by someone himself.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Artistic License – History | |
| The Unwritten (Comic Book) / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: The Villa Diodati is stated to be a Building of Adventure known for being the location where Percy Shelley, Mary Shelley and Lord Byron met and where Frankenstein was composed. The narrative also states that it was where John Milton composed Paradise Lost. This is false on multiple levels. The owner of the house, Charles Diodati was a friend of Milton's but Milton died before his purchase of the house, and it's not true that Paradise Lost was composed in the same place.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Greater-Scope Villain | |
| The Unwritten (Comic Book) / int_9b06e314 | comment |
The Kipling issue has the author fall out with the Greater-Scope Villain over the loss of his son John in World War I, seeing it as his Broken Pedestal moment on his role as a writer of empire and British nationalism, after propagandizing for entry into that war. Kipling in real life while grieving for the loss of his son, never once regretted or doubted his support for the Empire, nor for his support of the war. After World War I, he indeed insisted that the Treaty of Versailles was just, and that more effective steps needed to be taken to contain Germany who he saw before the war, and after the war, as Always Chaotic Evil. Kipling grieved for his son assuredly but he did believe that the cause he died for, and that of many of his comrades and soldiers, was just and had no doubts about it. | |

Accidental Misnaming | |
| The Unwritten (Comic Book) / int_af616e40 | comment |
Accidental Misnaming: Tom really dislikes people calling him "Tommy", since that's the name of the fictional character his father based on him. | |

Anti-Villain | |
| The Unwritten (Comic Book) / int_d001c42c | comment |
Anti-Villain: Pauly Bruckner in issue #12. He's clearly a ruthless person who's willing to commit any despicable act to get to his goal, but since his goal is getting out of the crap saccharine talking animal world Wilson Taylor has condemned him into and back into the real world, it makes his actions a bit more understandable. | |
