Fables #74
The all-out war between Fabletown and the Empire continues - and everything is going Fabletown's way. But as everyone knows, just when things are going well, the hammer falls.
Bigby and his team fight for their lives on the ground while the Skyship's crew, commanded by Prince Charming and Sinbad, hit the decks. This is the issue that, for obvious legal reasons, we couldn't call "The Empire Strikes Back."

I think the past two issues have been good, but halfway through this one I was getting tired of things going so well. Luckily, at the end they promised me things would go wrong in the next issue and the art was so lovely it didn't bother me all that much that things were going so easy.

@NealAppeal-Really? I thought it was awesome how great things were going, only because I knew it couldn't possibly last. Then the ending all but confirmed my suspicions. Although with so much having gone right, I'm extremely curious to figure out what the Gepetto can pull out of his hat to turn the tide of the war in his favor.

This is one of the best running series right now, and this issue is no exception. Also every single cover is truly a work of art. EVERY ONE
