It was disappointing for what it was--the conclusion of the war with the Adversary! But as most of the Fables books go, it's pretty good. Only a couple or so of the volumes are outstanding, but as you read all of them you really start to love the characters, and the expected art/universe they live in. ]]>
Miller's writing and Jim Lee's art don't seem to totally match up some of the time--especially in the first chapters. Things seem to jump around and are not always explained well, definitely in the first half. >How was Vicki Vale injured exactly?
Although, I like how it seems to tie in with "Year One" and "The Dark Knight Returns/Strikes Again." The only other Miller Batman I've read is the Batman Spawn one, which was not as good as this, but it was alright. Anyway it doesn't hit that mark of Miller's Dark Knight and Year One books but it gets dangerously close. I think Miller and Lee hit their stride by the end and I can't wait to see what they've come up with for Volume 2. The whole sequence with the yellow paint and Green was great. ]]>

It's got beautiful art but the stories are not quite up to par with Dini's usual fare. ]]>
