Summary: (courtesy of Wikipedia!)

 Bigby and Beast get into a violent fight that demonstrates the influence of the dark powers present. Rose Red sinks deeper and deeper into depression. Stinky starts a religion foretelling Boy Blue's heroic return, which a returning Jack Horner takes advantage of before encountering his son, the new Jack Frost. In an interesting twist, the issues are more focused on Jack than on the other Fables. (Note: Includes Jack of Fables issues 33 to 35 and The Literals issues 1 to 3.)

the hero that the book focuses on: Jack of Fables! :)

Review:
Currently, this is the funniest Fables I’ve read but not the best though. A lot of Bigby and Snow White, again. I’m starting to dislike those two because every Fables book is about them. Its like when you eat chocolate everyday you get tired of it in a matter of time. I also used to be indifferent to Jack Horner but through this Fables book, I’ve grown to love him. I’m thinking of reading “Jack of Fables”. He’s really funny. a comic relief and the most unusual story hero. The Literals are also interesting. I loved seeing the different genres personified. I would love to see a second volume of “The Literals”. Over-all, it was an okay book.

Willingham!

A very, very brief summary:  Bluebeard hatches a plot to rid himself of Bigby and Snow by enchanting them, and the homicidal Goldilocks attempts to kill the pair. Charming decides to run for Fabletown Mayor.

Review:

 Again, a job well done for Bill Willingham and his artist crew. The story became better. getting you hooked and leaving your mouth open because everything is just so JUICY! The illustrations are simply the best. I did prefer Lan Medina’s work than of Mark Buckingham though but still both are very impressive. Although. some may be rooting for Bigby and Snow White romance but I just can’t imagine it. Maybe because I’m still an old romantic who believes in prince charmings and beautiful girls living happily ever after. I did love it that the prince have a “SLIGHT” change of heart. For a time, I really believed that he had change. Maybe it means that no more frolicking with other girls! :) If you’ve read the first two volumes, you would definitely LOVE this, more than the first 2.
