This story really expands upon the 2 main plotlines of the series so far. Bigby and his father have to sort out some of their differences for the sake of family, and in the homelands the empire plots to crush fabletown and the whole 'real' world to end the rebellion and complete their conquest.
Amongst all of this there are hints at other potential future directions for the story, as well as a magnificent readers Q & A section where questions are illustrated in line with the rest of the comic.
This is another brilliant TP of one of my all time favourite comic books.

WINNER OF FOURTEEN EISNER AWARDS. The free Fables living in the mundane world have struck a decisive blow against the Adversary, destroying one of his most valuable assets at the very heart of his empire--and setting the stage for an all-out world between the worlds in the process. Now, while the ruler of the Homelands licks his wounds and gathers his forces, the denizens of Fabletown have a rare chance to savor the brief peace their victory has brought them. Everyone, however, knows that this is just the calm before the storm--and that even the winds themselves have to choose before it's over. Collects issues #52-59 in Bill Willingham's Eisner Award-winning Vertigo series.

Product description
From Booklist
Reeling from Bigby Wolf's destruction of his workshop and magic-tree lot (see Wolves 2006), the Adversary and the imperial forces of the Homelands plan a scorched-earth invasion of not just Fabletown but also the entire planet of the mundies (i.e., us normal humans). But Pinocchio, now back in the Homelands and reensconced with Gepetto (who, as everyone except ordinary Fables knows, is the Adversary), throws a bucket of cold reality on the scheme. This is all more entrancing than it may sound. Short-short stories featuring minor Fables and the still-flowering stylishness of Mark Buckingham's drawing enjoyably relieve the general somberness.

Enjoying pinocchios storyline
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 20, 2015Verified Purchase
Excellent contrasts in the family dynamics of the fable town and empire characters made for a terrific study - and sets up some interesting stories for the future. The variation in artists made this challenging to read though. - I liked the original series' artwork the most to date.
