Joanne: Yes, that’s exactly right! Commercials. And yes, Bigby

Great review! The whole time I was reading this one I kept feeling as though it was the commercials in between a favorite TV show

I’m another non-fan of Jack, he seems so I don’t know – pompous maybe. But then again I’m utterly in love with Bigby – dark, melancholy, outcast *sigh*

fyrefly: I agree, I think Jack is annoying. I might read the spin-off if I haven’t gotten enough Fables by the time I’m done, but we’ll see. I’m excited for March of the Wooden Soldiers.

Kim L: It is, I think the series as a whole is really interesting, especially for people who wouldn’t normally read comics but like literature and fairy tales.

Andi: I’ve been borrowing them from the library — I go through them so quickly I can’t justify the $10 for each one. I like the series a lot, it’s just not a good investment

I need to bite the bullet and order the 8th and 9th installments of these (or maybe it’s 9 and 10) that I don’t have.

Sounds very interesting, even if it wasn’t your favorite. One of these days, I’m going to check some more of these out from the library.

You’ll like March of the Wooden Soldiers – all of the forward plot movement from this one is packed into that one, and then some.

I think Jack is one of my least favorite characters, which puts me at a bit of a dilemna – once I finish the main series, I’m going to want more to tide me over until the next one comes out, and Jack’s got a spin-off series… but it’s Jack. (Who am I kidding, I’m totally still going to read them.)
