Countdown to Fables #100: War and Pieces

Welcome to today’s entry to the Countdown to Fables #100, where on Tuesday and Friday I recap a story told within the pages of Fables.  This will happen up until issue #100 is released on November 24th.  If you’re new to the countdown, an archive of all previous entries can be found under our Special Features menu.  Today’s story is titled “War and Pieces.”  In this story, the war between Fabletown and the Adversary is fought to the end.  The identity of the Adversary does appear in the recap, which is after the break.

Countdown to Fables #100: Arabian Nights (and Days)

Welcome to today’s edition of Countdown to Fables #100.  Twice a week, I will recap a story from Fables, starting at the beginning with “Legends in Exile,” and going all the way to the “Rose Red” story that hasn’t actually finished yet.  Today’s story is titled “Arabian Nights (and Days).”  This story is about a delegation of Arabian Fables, and the trouble they bring with them to Fabletown.  In the recap to this story, there is not a mention about the identity of the Adversary (even though one does exist in the actual story).  As always, the story recap and spoilers are after the break.

Countdown to Fables #100: The Mean Seasons

Welcome to my twice weekly recap of every story told within the pages of Bill Willingham’s Fables, counting down to the release of issue #100 on November 24th.  Today’s story is the title of volume 5 trade paperback, “The Mean Seasons.”  This story arc is a 4 issue run that takes place over the course of a year, one issue per season.  This story is about the birth of Snow and Bigby’s child, and the fallout from the Mayoral election.  The story recap and spoilers are after the break.

Countdown to Fables #100: A Storybook Love

It’s Friday, and that means that it’s time for the next edition of our countdown to the release of Fables #100.  If you’re new to this, every Tuesday and Friday I will be re-visiting  each story in Fables.  This will last until issue #100 is released in November.  Today’s story is “A Storybook Love.”  Bigby and Snow get tricked and have to fight for their life, while Prince Charming begins his search for power.  Of course, the recap is below the break, and of course, there are spoilers.
