- Title: Fables #153
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Bill Willingham
- Artist: Mark Buckingham
While we get short appearances by Cinderella and our new Jack the Green, the main focus of Fables #153 is on the children of Bigby and Snow White who their father sends off separately to each have a fantastic adventure on their own. Snow isn’t overly enthused with her husband’s decision and it turns out she may have valid concerns.
The child that gets the most time is that of Ambrose Wolf who meets a bookworm in the woods who invites the avid reader back to his home to see the creature’s marvelous collection of books. Ambrose spends more time than expected in the home of the worm whose true visage is a bit more terrifying that how he introduced himself to Ambrose and who has darker plans for the boy than simply sharing a love of reading. A bit of a middle issue to the larger arc, and not as much Cinderella, but still plenty for fans to enjoy.
