Aug 12, 2009It's certainly nice to have Mark Buckingham back where he belongs after so many months away. Buckingham returns to a more familiar art style compared to what he offered on Jack of Fables, with wide pages and storybook collages forming the borders. Buckingham's return lends the book a comfortable sense of familiarity. With the series now back on track, Willingham and Buckingham can resume shocking and awing as the series builds toward issue #100. Read Full Review

Aug 14, 2009I know that many readers were worried that post-War "Fables" might have lost its spark. Trust me when I say that this issue (and last month's) are proof that Willingham's definitely still got it. I'm not sure that the Master Dark story can maintain its own 75-issue run, but for now it's got what it takes to keep everything moving. Read Full Review
