    I absolutely love how much Oz lore Bill Willingham has brought into this title, and I particularly like the fact that he didn't settle for the most well-known characters, but instead has crafted a story starring the likes of Jack Pumpkinhead, the Sawhorse, the Glass Cat, and Bufkin (world's greatest flying monkey). I also like the way Mark Buckingham depicts these characters. Jack is understandably reminiscent of the Merv Pumpkinhead character from Sandman (although Jack, of course, came first by many decades), but that's hardly a complaint. The newest direction for Fables is not only intriguing, but it's also wonderfully entertaining, which is the perfect combination. Read Full Review

    Pleasant, but a bit too quiet, for all the characters and ground the issue covers. Some liveliness is seriously needed to pick up the pace. Read Full Review
