Interesting....After I finish a bunch of new books I've acquired, I'm going to dive back into Fables and read the entire series (That second half I upgraded with the hardcovers is still shrink-wrapped). I'm looking forward to seeing how the cross-over is, especially since most people speak down on it.
I disagree on Fables never reaching its heights again after the war ended. I actually enjoyed some of the later storylines more....."Cubs in Toyland", Mr. Dark, etc....
