Fables Compendium Four (2025)

Get lost in the fantastic world of Bill Willingham's acclaimed, Eisner Award-winning series Fables, now collected in a beautiful and story-packed compendium! When a savage creature, known only as the Adversary, conquered the fabled lands of legends and fairy tales, the famous inhabitants of folklore were forced into exile. Disguised among the normal citizens of a modern New York, these magical characters created their own peaceful and secret society, which they called Fabletown. But when Snow White's party-girl sister, Rose Red, is apparently murdered, it's up to Fabletown's sheriff -- the reformed Big Bad Wolf, Bigby -- 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 the carefully nutured secrecy of Fabletown. Collecting issues #1-41, Fables: The Last Castle, Fables: 1,001 Nights of Snowfall, and a short story from Fables: Legends in Exile!

"Fables Compendium Two starts with the story 'Arabian Nights (and Days),' when foreigners start showing up in Fabletown—much to the dismay of longtime residents—plunging Fabletown into a culture clash of dire proportions! Prince Charming is in over his head and must call on the help of a Fable character not seen in these pages for far too long...and this is one wish he can't take back. This collection takes on a life of its own, ending with the postwar story 'The Dark Ages'—but if the Fables knew the consequences, they might not have gone to war at all. Collects Fables #42-82."

As the free Fables struggle to regroup following the destruction of their New York City stronghold, Mr. Dark grows more powerful than ever! Sitting amid the wreckage that was once Fabletown, this sinister figure is building a web of fear and anger that threatens to ensnare any Fable who strays too close. Who among the Fables could defeat such a foe? The witches and warlocks formerly of the 13th floor? A damaged Rose Red with nothing to lose? Or perhaps it's a job...for a super-team! This third of four compendiums collects stories from Fables #83-113, the original graphic novel Fables: Werewolves of the Heartland, and The Great Fables Crossover chapters from Jack of Fables #33-35 and The Literals #1-3.
