WATCH THE WOLF AMONG US ONLINE SERIES
The art wasn't bad but several artists worked on the series and it did come across as a little inconsistent. I didn't like the ending, but noir is not known for happy endings. We see the Crooked Man, Bloody Mary, Georgie Porgie and others in totally new ways. It's very much a noir involving prostitutes, murder and the seedier side of Fabletown. Overall another good read, but I still prefer the regular F Fables as a general rule is a pretty dark series, but this limited series was the darkest yet.

In Volume 2, the mystery of who killed a woman continues and our detective is Sheriff Bigby Wolf who we know as the Big Bad Wolf. There are some nifty spins on everything, such as certain characters working as bouncers, hired killers or thugs (a different way of looking at these characters). Imagine Bloody Mary thrown in with Georgie Porgie, Tweedle Dee and Dum (from "Alice in Wonderland"), the sad and disturbing fairy tale "Donkeyskin" and even Ichabod Crane from "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow". What I enjoy continually about the Fables series, and its spinoffs is how well the various fairy tales, fables and folktales are integrated. This story delves into the darkest of fables and even urban legends, such as the extremely creepy legend of Bloody Mary.
