While reading the issues I've missed over those months, I asked myself the same question - the Fables world is an incredibly well constructed world, and the plots are indeed simply epic - not in itself a good thing, but even though I dislike the War and Pieces plotline and the aftermath, the Dark Ages storyline has been fascinating and the world ( Read more... )

I was going to leave this 'til I got home, in the hope that I could dedicate this post to comics. But circumstances change.

I am all caught up on my Telly shows, and most of my comics now - I still haven't read Batman RIP so I have no idea if it ties into the events of Final Crisis or if he's absent from Robin for another reason altogether *throws hands up* does anyone know?
