I will admit that I have been feeling very indifferent about this arc of fables but this issue reminded me why I read this whole series. The cover pretty much gives away what happens in this issue but I really could not care less because this Jean cover is SO fitting. Not having Jean on these covers is really going to take some time to get used too.
This issue was a 5 at the first two page spread with Mr. Dark driving that old timey car. I had to stop and laugh, which was good because not much laughing happened the rest of the story. Buckingham knocked this out of the park with the art. The first panel of Boy Blue was as is said in the pod cast “a gut punch” even after 4 issues of watching him wither away. My hats off to the colorist as well, the colors between Mr.Dark in the ruins of Fabletown and the room with Boy Blue in it made me hope there was the slightest chance he would survive.
Willingham’s final encounter between Rose Red and Boy Blue made this my pick. Blue has always been the bright eyes optimist who keeps getting dumped on and never shows it but he sure let it rip on Red. I suppose this is a sign to show much he loves her and wants her to become better when he is gone It was very powerful. This book has a lot left in it and I can’t wait for the next issue.
Art: 5 - Excellent
