What happened in Fables 147?

(I already know from the previews that it has Brandish's trial by combat and focuses on Rose in her Homeland.)

I'm not getting my hopes up about anything, but what happens in Fables issue 147? Every detail. Is there anything about Bigby? And is the Last Story about Jack or does it continue the Last Story from Fables 146???

  • Bigby dies, Rose turns into a dragon, and snow white goes go-kart racing with Jack. Just kidding I don't know xD.

  • You know, when I read Bigby dies, I died inside... Your not a nice person 'goes and cries in the corner'

    You brought me down dude... I don't like that! (Seriously though you need to play catch-up, the series is loads more intense after issue 100)

  • -Brandish and Lancelot duel. Lancelot cuts off his head, however, Brandish is still alive and looking for his head. Flycatcher tells Lancelot that they will have to continue to duel, until one dies. The last thing we see, is the two of them about to duel a second time.
    -Rose Red shows up in her old Homeworld, and explores the old forest that she used to live in. Her powerful magic draws monsters and creatures to her, the the Cricket points out that instead of going back and becoming a queen of blood and battle, she could stay and rule this "new Eden" as its queen. Rose doesn't like the idea, and tells the Cricket to explain her family's history.
    - The Cricket begins to tell the story of Lauda, her and Snow White's mom, as the issue ends. We find out that she had thirteen sisters, and she was the youngest. The Cricket says that from an early age, Lauda, knew she would have to kill all of them, to "come into her powers".
    -In, "The Last Story of Beauty and the Beast", Beauty and a teenage Bliss, travel around the homelands as outlaws. Bliss talks to her mother about how much she likes going into Beast mode, even though her mother insist that she shouldn't, because she is a lovely and sweet girl.

  • 2 issues left? How are they gonna wrap everything up nicely...

    2 issues left? How are they gonna wrap everything up nicely...

  • Well Rapunzel isn't Snow/Rose's mom then; kinda surprised with the outcome of the duel, I was expecting Lance to die... The Last Story is Beauty and Beast then instead of Jack Horner... interesting. So there was no mention of Bigby?

  • 3 issues. 148, 149, and 150. The last issue(150) is supposed to be a long issue (150 pages) so i think they can wrap it up in time nicely I hope.

  • I hope they don't leave EVERYTHING for the last issue, isue 150 will essentially be 5 issues in 1 (thereabouts) but they can use all that space for the aftermath of the Snow/Rose conflict instead of the conflict itself...

  • No mention of Bigby. Also this felt like even more filler because Brandish wasnt killed and we still dont know about the secret of their mother

  • I suspect that Bigby will arrive and kill Brandish by ripping him apart/maybe devouring him, Lance will restrain him and then Rose will restore Bigby when she gets back, Bigby will be weak and Rose will combine that weakness with the idea that Snow no longer loves/needs him so he will join her side... Cue Fables 149 (obviously I hope that with this theory, Bigby will not sleep with Rose)

    I'm kinda glad that Snow/Rose aren't Rapunzel's daughters, but now the question is where are her daughters? (Maybe a Last Story for Rapunzel is in store that we don't know about...) Willingham swapped out Hansel/Gretel's Last Story for a larger one involving Charming last issue and instead of having Jack's Last Story in this issue we got Beauty/Bliss' (which was meant to be in next month's issue btw)

  • I do hope Bigby does come and Rip brandish into a blood puddle. Also hoping 149 is just symbolism. It might just because Rose some how restoring Bigby and her lust for him

  • I'll assume that Bigby plays along with the act so that he can do something drastic to Rose (maybe he'll destroy her forces or castle or something, he's already said that he doesn't kill family) I just want him and Snow to be reunited and then the series can continue on to it's end...

    Also Beauty and Bliss' Last Story is really sad! Beast is still dead and now they're outlaws, when before they were the higher-ups of Fabletown... To me, their Last Story just adds more content to draw upon (maybe a future continuation of Fables?)

  • Yeah I was really expecting Beast to come back :(

    Also Im starting to think Fables will end with them all leaving to the Homelands again

    I got to say even though i am a huge Fables fan, this issue felt unsatisfying and filler. Nothing really happened at all like Prince Brandish's duel went nowhere, we still don't know about Rose Reds family history, and after finishing this issue I thought "Wow,that was it".

  • Well you have to admit that the Last Story kinda made you feel 'So, Beauty and Bliss have a poor life now'

    I got to say even though i am a huge Fables fan, this issue felt unsatisfying and filler. Nothing really happened at all like Prince Brandis
