Fables (Deluxe)
Fables (Deluxe) | Bill Willingham
21 posts | 22 read | 1 reading | 4 to read
As Snow White slowly recovers from a bullet to the brain, she and Bigby spend a lot of time in each other's company. But when they announce that they'll be vacationing together, all of Fabletown is shocked...and not just because Snow White has never taken a holiday before. The twosome's sudden departure from New York City -- and the deadly peril they're about to fall into -- is surely no match for the ruthless enemy who's still lurking in the back woods. This volume also includes the special FABLES: THE LAST CASTLE, we learn of the great war that forced Bigby Wolf, Prince Charming and Bluebeard to leave their homeland in search of a safe haven. As the battle rages, we meet a mysterious woman in red, and learn why Snow White's deputy, Little Boy Blue, only plays the blues on his trumpet.

Continued the Fables graphic novel. I really like these. Can‘t wait to read the next book.

Standard of excellence maintained. Fairy tale noir with about the same ratio of scandalous machinations, sex and violence seen in the first book in the series. Pleasantly surprised by the turn to full lore mode in the last illustrated story and even more so by the short story included at the end. 1/2

Robotswithpersonality 2/2 You don't often see graphic novels switch to full text, and it handily proves how much Bill Willingham can move between mediums, painting a tale with words, no pictures required.
The emerging pairing bridging this book's story arc? I ship it! 🥰
⚠️ Nudity, gore, reference to SA, also inferred non-con (while enchanted).

Fables version of Robin Hood: Less Errol Flynn, More 'Green Arrow and Hulk Hogan had a muscle-y baby'. 💪🏹

I've been reading this series for a few months now. The TV show Once Upon a Time is loosely based on these characters. Prince #Charming isn't as dreamy in this series as he is in the Disney movie. He's a bit selfish and very narcissistic.

@Ijuliel Q. what's the diff bt comics, manga, anime, graphic novels, etc

2/6: I always think of comics to mean anything marvel and DC and “American“ in style. When I say American I'm also thinking 'back in the day'. Nowadays the styles are more diverse. But anything that looks to imitate how real people look I dub as comics. Panels are also styled in boxes and are read L to R

I don't read comics bc I don't like this style

ljuliel See, these I‘d be familiar with. As a kid, they had comics in the drugstore downtown. I probably couldn‘t see the print to read them now , but I used to like them. Archie and Jughead was my favorite. 😁. 5y
coffees @ljuliel i used to work at a library so those titles are familiar but i never read comics like these until i was maybe in college and that's only because i played this game called The Wolf Among Us. I didn't really like the comic (Fables) bc of the art and format which sucks bc the game made it out to be a really cool story! 5y

I hate to be a negative nancy but I hated this for being so ironically *mundane* Serves me right for trying this before another Sandman.

Swe_Eva Not in the Sandman field at all. 🤣 It is my favorite series to reread when I'm in bed with a cold and can't concentrate on anything else. 👍 7y
Purrsistently @Swe_Eva aw, I‘m glad it can comfort you on blehky days 7y

I've always loved #mythology, but my true love when it comes to reading is fractured fairy tales. I'm building my collection, but I've read every trade of Willingham's "Fables" but the last two -- I don't want the series to end! ?#aprilbookshowers

TobeyTheScavengerMonk Fables is the best! That last book is wild in both content and format. 8y

So I am not usually one to read comic books, but my boyfriend's dad lent me this one and I am loving it so far! finished the first volume and about to go to the second! I may ask him to lend me the whole collection! this is pretty much a darker, funnier Once Upon a Time ( in fact since the comic is way older than the show - the show kinda rips off the comic tbh). definitely recommend
