I'm looking forward to this issue. I wonder if we really will find out who the Adversary is, or whether it'll be just another ruse.
Personally, my favorite arc was the Animal Farm, but the Fabletown War was good too.

Looks pretty cool. Though I get to watch a free dragon fight on this thread and I think it just ended -

We're supposed to get the true identity of the Adversary in issue 40. Time will only tell....

We're supposed to get the true identity of the Adversary in issue 40. Time will only tell.... Well here we go, this is supposed to be the issue with the big revelation... Written by Bill Willingham Art by Mark Buckingham & Steve Leialoha Cover by James Jean After three long years of teasing and misdirection, the Adversary is revealed in the fourth amazing chapter of the "Homelands" saga. Now the action picks up as we follow Boy Blue in his quest across the Homelands, learn how close he came to rescuing Red Riding Hood, and discover how the Adversary came to power. 32 pg, FC, MATURE READERS $2.75Please tell me it's not [Censored]in' Geppetto! That would be too easy. -SHARK DIGGLER

Sorry, Shark, didn't see you Giapetto comment on your first post.
I agree, too easy, and I figure it'd be a last page revelation type of thig. Though since the Adversary did send wooden soldiers to invade Fabletown, Giapetto does make sense as their creator at least. I expect he's second in command or soemthing.

I don't think he's the adversary - way too easy, but I'm sure he's of high rank, like you say Eric.
Guess we'll find out on Wed.

S P O I L E R
W A R N I N G !Well it looks like the Adversary IS Geppetto. Unless Willingham is [Censored]ing with us. Really looking forward to the next issue to see Red Riding Hood and Boy Blue reunited. Also want to see what Geppetto will have to say to Pinocchio. You know, I didn't enjoy the first two chapters of Homelands all that much, but rereading them along with chapters 3 and 4 have really changed my opinion of the arc, I'm enjoying it quite a bit now. Kinda disappointed about Geppetto, but maybe Willingham has an ace up his sleeve. Also, looks like Bigby will be returning soon -SHARK DIGGLER

Just reread issue #40 and I noticed something - Pinocchio didn't recognize Geppetto on the last page. What's up with that? Looks like there's more to this than I originally thought. -SHARK DIGGLER

I still think it's too easy for it to be Geppetto. I know what issue 40 is telling us, but I don't think that's all of it.... what if this Geppetto is just a wooden man brought to life and the real Geppetto is long dead or something.... I dunno.... but I do know that Willingham has never written easy answers so there's got to be more to this.

Written by Bill Willingham Art by Mark Buckingham & Steve Leialoha Cover by James Jean In the first issue of the 4-part "Arabian Nights (and Days)," wayward foreigners have started showing up in Fabletown - much to the dismay of the longtime residents. These new Fables are not European and are in danger of throwing the comfortably Eurocentric Fabletown into chaos. Once more, 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. 32 pg, FC 2.75

Looking forward to reading the new storyarc - it's about time to see some non-european fairy tales.

Yeah, I love James Jean's covers! If they ever make an art book that collects his covers, I am so gonna get it!
Boy Blue's adventure was pretty cool. I won't say anymore 'cause I don't want to spoil it. But it was rather fun to read.
