More plot that story, with no real character building, this seemed like a series of bridge issues to get things heading toward the big climax. Not bad, but comparably poor compared to Willingham's usual work. Buckingham's art is always gorgeous, and the concepts of all out war of Homelands vs. Earth are enjoyable, but all in all, not the best Fables GN. (show less)

Fables never fails to entertain me. With each I finish i immediately want to pick up the next installation. I am very interested to see what is happening in the Homelands, and if some of the characters are as loyal as they appear to be.

This volume really illustrates the problems of passing meaningful judgement on subsets of an ongoing series. It is very bitty; the bits make sense as contributions to the entirety of the narrative, but don't hang together especially well combined rather arbitrarily here. It doesn't help that of the numerous artists involved, one or two are distiinctly sub-standard.
