Fables, Vol. 18: Cubs in Toyland

I'll admit that I was starting to lose interest in Fables. It seemed like in leaving Fabletown, the series had gotten away from what made it interesting in the first place, and I felt like focusing on Snow and Bigby's kids was going to make for uninteresting stories.

This brought me right back into the fold despite being both those things. It reminded me a lot of not only the best that Fables has had to offer, but of other classic Vertigo stories as well (stuff like Gaiman's Sandman and Delano's Animal Man). Cubs In Toyland is dark, it's daring, and it's a damn good read.
