'Fables' continues to impress me with how long Bill Willingham has managed to keep this series from going stale. At present, it is the longest running series that I read on a monthly basis and the writing is as good as it's ever been. Some people were turned off by the new villain Mr. Dark after the Adversary story was resolved a few years back, but I think he's a suitable followup villain. I'm excited to see who is picked for the fables' "super team" that's going to make a last stand against Mr. Dark. Also, the subplot involving Bigby and Snow's zephyr child named Ghost has been brewing slowly for a long time and I can't wait to see Bigby and his father Mr. North's confrontation on the issue. Art wise, Mark Buckingham continues to prove why he is the best man to illustrate this fables world.
