Customer Reviews

Fabulous!
The second trade paperback collection of this equally successful spin-off of Bill Willingham's FABLES doesn't flag or disappoint in the least. The wildly imaginative adventures of Jack Horner in all his many and varied "Jack-hoods" is intricately plotted and beautifully written. The characters, while reflecting accurately and unflinchingly their archetypal storybook origins, are fleshed-out, hard-living and -loving people at their arrogant worst, providing a wickedly pleasurable reading experience. This is neither Disney nor Little Golden Books fairy tales. There is a Dark Knight-esque undercurrent, despite Jack's eternal bright lightness and mythical blondness. Readers of Charles de Lint, Anne Rice, Pamela Dean, Neil Gaiman, and the adult fairy tale collections of Datlow and Windling will find pleasure with both this series and its parent, as would comics aficionados of the work of Linda Medley, Jeff Smith, Charles Vess, Grant Morrison, and Garth Ennis. Truly fabulous!

Yay
I don't know about you guys, but I was especially fond of Lady Luck, and what she did in this story. I really liked her as a character, and overall, the entire book flowed along nicely, with the main story and the side-stories. I would have to say that out of the four Jack books currently available, this one would be my favorite.

Jack of Fables
Second volume to comic book series about a storybook hero, of sorts, and his adventures on his way to Vegas and while in Vegas. Will make you want to continue the series to find out what happens.
