This volume follows the non-human fables at the Farm, as two of the three little pigs with the help of Goldilocks plan to start a revolution and reclaim their Homelands from the Adversary. Fabletown and Beyond was a comic convention created and hosted by Willingham to showcase and appreciate comic books that fall under the genre of mythic fiction. This collection takes on a life of its own, ending with the story "The Dark Ages"-taking place post-war-but if the Fables knew the consequences, they might not have gone to war at all. La prosa di Willingham riesce a rispettare l'atmosfera di Fables anche senza i disegni, ed è affascinante entrare nella mente di Wolf per capire le sue motivazioni e i suoi istinti predatori.The conclusion where we got some closure but also open ended with the woman who was supposed to be his bride those 1,001 nights prior was very lovely and I liked that way to wrap it up a lot! This collection takes on a life of its own, ending with the story The Dark Ages, taking place post-war–but if the Fables knew the consequences, they might not have gone to war at all. Also, Snow White was so rude at the end there with how she swindled everyone by using governmental technicalities—talk about Lawful Neutral lol! While it's quite common for graphic novels and comics to not have page numbers I really think in it's thousand or so paged compendium it should have had a number somewhere or other.

Un amore da favola: Willingham dà continuità alla storia sviluppando ulteriormente i personaggi di Prince Charming (il principe azzurro, una persona veramente deplorevole sotto ogni punto di vista), Bluebeard (un altro cattivissimo, naturalmente), Goldilocks (associates con Bluebeard), e torna sulla dichiarazione d'amore di Bigby a Snow White. E oltre a metterci in guardia dai pericoli del poterex Willingham sembra dirci che il fine non giustifica i mezzi, e se i mezzi utilizzati sono disumani, alla fine si perde la propria umanità. L'universo di Fables parte da una premessa abbastanza semplice: le terre dei protagonisti delle fiabe sono state conquistate da un famigerato Adversary (Avversario), e quelli che si sono salvati da morte e distruzione si sono rifugiati in una comunità a New York.La storia è raccontata in modo interessante, ma non consistente: parte come una collezione di testimonianze di un processo, ma poi passa ad una narrazione lineare. con queste 140 pagine di contenuti fuori dalla serie regolare che scopriamo così i background di King Cole, di Snow White stessa e di come abbia fatto fuori i maledetti sette nani, del povero Ambrose il principe ranocchio, del perché a Bigby sia vietato entrare nella Farm (era davvero un lupo grande e cattivo! It includes a brief comic-book story that deals with Pete and Bo Peep's adventures after the events in the novel.

NOTE: other restrictions can be a result of our security platform detecting potential malicious activity.Yes, I suppose the bland princesses and maidens of fairy tales are often the "fairest of the land", but dang, they do little to prompt any change in imagination. Since it's a long running series, a lot of artists come and go and while most of them are not bad, some of the art is just really simple and uninspired. This book ends at a solid spot that leaves you craving more and ends at a pretty big and satisfying reveal. Storie di guerra sta in due ottimi numeri che raccontano di un episodio della Seconda Guerra Mondiale in cui Bigby guidò un commando statunitense dietro le linee nemiche in Francia nel 1944. Though the story really began to get going about half way through, and apart from a tiny lull in a god awful two part war time Nazi story, the book became far more enjoyable, and I breezed through the final 700 pages in a few days.
