In this FABLES collection featuring issues #46-51 of the Eisner Award winning series, the threat of the Adversary looms ever closer as the drums of war begin their steady beat. The Fables prepare for battle, but first they must find their would-be commander: Bigby Wolf!

For the first time ever, Bill Willingham's acclaimed, Eisner Award-winning series FABLES is presented in a deluxe hardcover edition collecting issues #1-10. When a savage creature known only as the Adversary conquered the fabled lands of legends and fairy tales, all of the infamous inhabitants of folklore were forced into exile. Disguised among the normal citizens of modern-day New York, these magical characters have created their own peaceful and secret society within an exclusive luxury apartment building called Fabletown. When Snow White's party-girl sister, Rose Red, is apparently murdered, it's up to Fabletown's sheriff, the reformed and pardoned Big Bad Wolf, to find the killer. Meanwhile, trouble of a different sort brews at the Fables' upstate farm where non-human inhabitants are preaching revolution – and threatening Fabletown's carefully nurtured secrecy.

In these tales from FABLES #34-45, Boy Blue undertakes a mission of revenge as he uncovers the Adversary's true identity! Plus, Jack's adventures in Hollywood and Mowgli's return to Fabletown!

The award-winning Vertigo series continues with a new introduction by former DC Comics President and Publisher Paul Levitz, and a special sketchbook section by series artist Mark Buckingham. Imagine that all the characters from the world’s most beloved storybooks were real-real, and living among us, with all of their powers intact. How would they cope with life in our mundane, un-magical reality? The answer can be found in FABLES, Bill Willingham’s celebrated reimagining of the venerable fairy tale canon. From Snow White and the Big Bad Wolf to Goldilocks and Little Boy Blue, the folk tales of old are reborn here as exiles living in the magically camouflaged New York City neighborhood of Fabletown. FABLES: THE DELUXE EDITION BOOK TWELVE includes the worlds-shaking events of “Super Team” and “Inherit the Wind,” as well as the pivotal tales “The Ascent” and “All in a Single Night” from FABLES #101-113.

In this collection of issues #52-59 and 64, preparation for the war against the Empire begins, and the Adversary consults with the Imperial Elite to decide what to do about Fabletown. Then, Bigby confronts his father, the North Wind, while the cubs celebrate their birthday!
