Fables volume 4 is probably the longest chapter so far, but easily the best of the bunch.

So what happens when Little Red Riding Hood comes strolling into fabletown. I thought she was dead? Least Boy Blue told the story of the fight of his life with his solider buddies before the Advisory and all his minions came to fuck shit up and force the fables to retreat into our world. However, not all is what it seems. Bigby right away knows something is up but will he be too late to uncover it all? Will the evil of the red riding hood convert everyone against the wolf? The mystery builds as does the war.

Good: The fight is really great here. Bloody, some unexpected deaths, some screwed up torture scenes, and some heartfelt, sad, and broken moments for each character. The ending too leaves a lot to be excited for. Also how great was the backstory to their world and how damaged our poor fables are? I loved all that.

Bad: It felt a little long in pacing. A issue cut here would have done wonders because sometimes I wanted to skip ahead some of the fluffy dialog that got in the way.

This is the strongest volume yet, giving us a lot of great moments, both fighting and dialog. I only hope the series continues to deliver in this quality. A 4 out of 5.
