August 2, 2010 10:33 am I absolutly adore this book and like you said, it's one I don't hear talked about all that much. I'm so glad you are highlighting it here.

They don't explicitly say it but if you read between the lines:

print version $4.99

digital copy "all three chapters" with the app currenlty charging $1.99 per issue so does that mean $5.97 ?

I almost wonder if we would even be having this discussion if the book had re-booted with a new #1. "All New, All Different Fables Vol. 2!!" I think for a lot of us proper labeling gets in the way of our critical thinking skills. A great example of this is how bent out of shape people ended getting over Final Crisis simply because it had the word "Crisis" in the title and the book itself didn't fit itself into the mental box that that word invokes.

For myself I'm still very much loving both Fables and Jack and am looking forward to reading the current crossover (I've been hoarding them so as to swallow them all in one gulp).

I very much grew up with comics all around but as the superhero stuff was too "adult & violent" I mostly had lots of the Marvel Star cartoon line (LOVED Ewoks and Muppet Babies) and Captain Carrot books that were read to death.

Later on, after reading a bunch of my cousin's collection the first "real" comic I bought with my own money was (adjective-less) X-Men #2. What followed were a good few years of Image fanboy madness/crash-and-burn that thankfully has evened out to what I like to think is a pretty well-rounded pile of books every month and a huge trade collection (although admittedly, VERY light on Marvel at the moment).

December 10, 2008 4:09 pm This series has been VERY good but man, the art is way inconsistent. It ranges from "pretty OK" to "just plain ugly." And let's be honest, the Huntress entrance/crotch shot is about 2 steps beyond ridiculous...
