Why was this series cancelled??? It’s really fun! I’m bummed that there aren’t any more issues.
I guess now I'm well and truly done with all the Fables comics. This series honestly never captured the feel of Fables to me. I liked the art but it wasn't Fables style art and was more action comics art, which really was what this was supposed to be anyway. The character of Conor just wasn't at all likeable, and the main storyline was about a school being held hostage by 3 losers who obtain magical artifacts. With the recent rash of school shootings, this storyline was a little uncomfortable.An...
Shame this series was canceled. It was just beginning to show its potential. The idea of a secret agent squad of fables was touched more briefly with Cinderella stuff earlier, but I think here the idea is more full formed. There are a lot of places they coulda gone with this and it's a shame they didn't get to. A much better premise than the Jack of Fables spinoff which lasted far longer.
I. Loved. This.I loved it. Most of the stories were on par for what I expect from the Fables series. The stuff in the school, though? With essentially the building of a myth/religion and society? That went above and beyond. That just spoke to me. Holy cow, those bits were intense and well paced and well told.Also, (view spoiler)[Schrodinger's cat (hide spoiler)] makes an appearance, and I could not stop laughing at that.
This was an interesting take on bullied kids finally snapping and taking a gun to school and shooting up the place. How would that go down in a world with magical items?Despite myself, I still find I'm really liking Connor Wolf... despite his oversexed, arrogant, stupidly charming attitude. I'm still not quite sure whether it's because he's a Wolf, or he reminds me of Dick Grayson as an Agent of Spyral, but I just can't help finding myself enjoying his over-the-top personality.Peter and Bo are a...
Well, that spinoff didn't last long... This is the second (and final) volume of Everafter, and to be perfectly honest, that seems like a good choice. The promise of the premise from volume 1 completely fails to cross over here, and the book is an unpleasant hodge-podge of ideas. You've got what amounts to a magical version of Columbine, where three students take over their school and move it to an alternate dimension (an idea much better explored in The Woods graphic novel series), a Harry Potte...
Remember how great the first 75 issues of Fables were? If the book had ended there, it would be held up as a Vertigo limited-run classic like Sandman, Preacher, Transmet, Scalped, Lucifer, and so forth. Instead, it went on twice as long as it should have and the universe is now petering to an ignominious end in this z-grade spin-off that "stars" Taylor Lautner as a shape-changing pansexual werewolf secret agent. I'd tell you not to read this but judging by the fact that it got canned after 12 is...
IncredibleAn excellent addition to the anthology of the fables. Combination scifi, spy story and morality story.Some of the best work I've read.The art was fantastic too.Something for everyone.
3.5 stars (I can't justify rounding up, as I typically do.)While definitely readable, this title lacks the warmth, charm and depth of it's predecessor titles.
Am I the only one that actually liked these? Sad that it was cancelled! But hey, maybe I'm just a sucker for the Fables series and anything related to it.
Story was marginally better than the first but the characters were still not that interesting, especially the primary characters. Jack was the worst character in the original run and they seem to have modeled Connor off of him which was unfortunate.
Damn, that was complete crap. A disgrace to the original series to share title and characters with this series, no wonder it was cancelled after only 12 issues. I would expect it to be thrown into the comic-oblivion bucket sooner. The first vol. was decent and with some interesting post-fables ideas to expore in the newly magical mundy world, but the second destroyed whatever was starting to being build and crapped all over. I mean, page after page full of uter nonsense, stupid and completely an...
A bit confused on what this one means for the series. An interesting story about school violence, but the rapes and violence are pretty out of control and if you're going to go the direction you go with it, maybe don't try and be so funny about it and try and give the story within more room to breathe.
I liked this even better than the first volume! Funny, silly, and a story that holds your interest.
Okay, so I’ve finally finished every volume that the Fables universe has to offer. This one was a good story to go out on. I think it’s the only spinoff (bar 1001 Nights) that’s as strong as the main arc. Just really enjoyed it. Suuuper dark though. Also love the bi!Conner content. Plus, great to FINALLY see more POC in the Fables universe (that improvement came far too late, though).
Enjoyed this, and I'm sorry it didn't have a longer run. At the time I was a bit Fables weary, and I guess lots of other fans of the original series were too.
This spin-off shouldn't have been made. There were things I liked about this, but over all why? I liked the add of some lesser know Fables in the Texas and Mexican areas. I liked the art kind of too. I didn't care for the story. Too much going on for a spin-off squeal. Only focused on Connor Wolf and none of his brothers and sister make an appearance. I was hoping this would answer some questions the last Fables volume had, but instead it just opened more questions. This didn't really have a goo...
TwistedHeavy. Twisted. New. Classic. This series takes everything good about fables and takes it on some kind of drug addled adventure ride. Great spin with a classic twist.
After a mediocre first volume, Everafter really hits its stride here ... in what turns out to be its only other volume before cancellation. Sigh.The main joy here is the storytelling. The authors do an excellent job of moving forward and back to really tell the story in unusual ways, with the prologue and the issue inside the box being the best. And the box itself ... that's pretty brilliant, and really makes the story.There are some problems with pacing, them it's obvious that the entire comic
Another typical Fables save the Mundy world story. Just like the first volume, I highly enjoyed reading more about Connor Wolf, Bo Peep and Peter Piper. Being from Texas I enjoyed some of the local lore they incorporated in this issue. If you liked Fables or any of the other spin offs, this issue will be sure to please.
