Fables, Vol. 22: Farewell by Bill Willingham

4.0

Oh man its over :(
I didn't like the ending much even though its perfect.
But i cant help but feel that this could have gone another way what if they avoided betting rose red and snow white against each other from the beginning and tried to get a different ending?
It somehow feels like they were preparing for a war that is going to happen, when someone suddenly reminded them if snow white and rose red family is cursed, that their daughters must fight to inherit the power, then how come snow white has 4 sons and then everyone was dumbfounded and they reached this outcome lmao...
I don't know but this is how it felt...
But even though the ending is epic not for the war that was never fought.
No, but for the whole series, the ending as bill have said in the afterward there is so many stories that can be told, but they will not tell them for example, who is the cosmic looking guy winter wolf is holding hands with ?
How did the magic school change the mundy world forever?
I feel the only tale that was left unfinished, or maybe i have forgotten that it was finished is the blue fairy revenge on gepetto, why did she never pursue her revenge after she found out that the wedding was a lie?
I loved the cover its a masterpiece so many characters on the cover over 170 how did they do it i don't know lol
Anyway it was a great journey loved every second of it.
The afterward made me cry :(
Seeing all the writers and inkers and pencilers and letterers faces made me so happy putting a face to each name.
Somehow we bond with these people through their art.
Somehow everyone over the ages that has read the same book has a bond with all others who have read it before or after them.
That's the magic of reading.
Its endless.
Its a fable...
