I think I am learning my lesson not to put off reviews. My brain isn't as sharp as I would like, so it works better to write these reviews soon after I read the books. Fortunately, this volume of Fables stands out a bit because it focuses on Bigby Wolf and his solo adventure to Story City, Iowa, a s...
"At long last! The long-awaited original FABLES: WEREWOLVES OF THE HEARTLAND graphic novel is here!
