Fables #162

Fables comes to a close… again. Fables #162 wraps up “The Black Forest,” the twelve-part return to the Fables Universe for Bill Willingham. Although its various epilogues tease additional stories for some of the separate characters, Fables #162 does feel like a finale. Our catalyst to the end of Peter Pan comes in the form of the new Jack in the Green who finally catches up with the villain and uses her arrow not to kill Pan but to release Tinkerbell from his control damning him to a far worse fate than death.

Next, we see her with the broken Pan who orders her to kill the entire Wolf family leading to a death and cliffhanger conclusion to close out the issue.

Events are beginning to pick up. the overconfident Peter Pan has begun cutting a swath through the Black Forest killing anything remotely magical he comes across, up until he runs into a certain pack of wolves that is.

Fables #157 wraps up the final adventure story of the Snow White and Bigby Wolf cubs with Winter escaping the world on the back of a turtle in ways that will unintentionally alter the small world forever (and bring a friend back with her). The issue then jumps forward in time, which feels a bit odd but does allow you to see how the various children have grown after their adventures.
