The Official Fables Thread

[Eric Draven]

Well what fable do you think is responsible for making something wooden?

Could that be who the Adversary is....or could he just be working for the Adversary?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Could be him, or he could just be a dupe. Maybe even an unwilling one like Weyland was in "Animal Farm," which would set things up nicely for the classic touching reunion scene. Either one would be equally cool, though I don't think Willingham would be that obvious.

Man, just read the Fables reviews :

Wednesday can't come soon enough now...

 

[TheCorpulent1]

That review teases at too much stuff. I want my copy!!

 

[Eric Draven]

I know. Seems like quite a few things get revealed here...I want to read this issue now!

 

[epithumia]

Oooh, I'm all excited now! I've only been reading the TPBs (the third one's coming out this month?? Where've I been?), but now I don't know that I can wait for the fourth...

 

[Eric Draven]

Wow talk about a thread bump

Anyways....Fables 24 next week. We might get to know who the Adversary finally is

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I can't wait. Is it just me, or are we the only people who seem to read the individual issues, Eric? Come on, somebody discuss something Fables-related!

 

[Eric Draven]

Well issue 25 comes out this week. I hope we find out more of what's going on. Like is the Adversary really

Spoiler

Gepetto

and is Red really

Spoiler

Baba Yaga

?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Geez, people around here suck. This thread always eventually degrades into Eric saying a new issue will be out and me saying, "I can't wait" or some other such nonsense. Oh well, I still can't wait for the next issue...

I would partake, but I've only been able to read the first 19 issues by downloading them.

Well maybe we could start something new...like....what do you think of the upcoming arc in which they deal with Bigby's adventures with Frankenstein in World War II?

It's only on #24 now. I can scan the intervening issues and post them in the scan-o-rama if you want.

That would be very much appreciated, but sounds like it'd be time consuming. I don't want to be a bother.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

It's not a problem, really... only 5 issues.

At 20 or so pages per issue. But if you're willing, I'd certainly be very grateful to you.

Corpie rules!

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Well, I'm gonna be posting them one at a time over the course of the week, probably. Just to be sure I don't blow my old scanner up.

 

[Mr. Fear]

This thread cannot go to page 2 oblivion, I shall save it because it's dedicated to a ^_^^_^^_^^_^ book.

 

[Mr. Fear]

Double post fun!

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The last issue was pretty good. The proverbial calm before the storm. I like Blue's dedication. Now all I need to see next issue is some Puss in Boots action, kicking wooden ass and taking names!

 

[Mr. Fear]

Are you talking about 24 or 25? I still have to read the one that came out on this week. I'm interested also in the next storyline, The Witching.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

25. And isn't The Witching a new Vertigo series altogether?

 

[Mr. Fear]

Arggh, foiled again. There's an 8 page preview in 26, I just glanced at it.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, that's what I thought I read in the solicitations. The Witching looks pretty good, though. Funny how it's coming out almost at the same time as Marvel's Witches comic. The publishers are both going witch-crazy.

 

[Mr. Fear]

June's a big month for competition. Marvel hasn't done a lot of promotion for Identity Disc, and if it's a counter to Identity Crisis they're gonna need it.
