Notes
- ↑ Red Riding Hood may be tough to spot; she is positioned on the left side of the panel where Pinocchio swears on the Bible, identifiable by her characteristic hairstyle — however, her head is turned away, obscuring her face from view
- ↑ At the end of the issue, a dark-skinned boy/teenager wearing the same kind of outfit as Sam is seen from behind, sitting at the table with Bigby's family; implying that the boy is Sam's son, Sammy Junior, who was last seen as a baby in Jack of Fables #49 — "A Miniaturized Blue Ox: The Fourth Essential Component in the Most Epically Nifty Jack of Fables Story in the History of the Universe!"
