Flycatcher is easily one of the least interesting characters for me, and yet still this volume still was solid.

Not as strong as the previous volumes, this one focuses on Flycatcher. You begin to understand why he's just so important. It is a interesting take, and I gotta be honest, I loved the idea of a new army to take on the big evil. SO this one mostly focuses on building, making plans to counter the war, and of course Flycatcher growth as a character to become a king. Pretty crazy, huh?

Good: I liked the ending. I thought it lead to interesting ideas. Watching villains return and turn on each other was wonderful. I also really loved the issue where the kids find out their brother is there too. Bigsby, snow white, and the kids remain the most interesting characters.

Bad: The art for that one issue with the family was really odd and caught me off guard. Flycatcher long winded history and how he became the king was cool but I can't say I was interested all that much and it took me awhile to get through this one.

Overall this is another solid volume. Not as good as the last few but this one still remained interesting enough I wanna read more.
