Written by Chris RobersonArt by Shawn McManus
This is another fun issue, as a captive Cinderella gets taken to meet Dorothy Gale, and reflects on her previous run-ins with one of the few fables as popular, and therefore as powerful, as she is.
I especially liked the flashback that had Cindy using Snow White as bait on a ski trip back in 1986. Her plan was to use the well-known citizen of Fabletown to try to draw Dorothy out, although she is instead subjected to days of Snow complaining about Bigby. The reference to those two as pulling a 'Sam and Diane' got a laugh out of me. I also like that we are starting to get a sense of why Dorothy became the hard-core killer that she is. I am waiting to see how Roberson is going to reconcile this take on Dorothy with her appearances in the Golden Boughs Retirement Home in early issues of Jack of Fables.
McManus is doing some great work on this book; perhaps the best I've seen from him.
