Publisher's summary

Part 1 of the new 4-part story "Sons of the Empire." What's it like being the firstborn son of a bloodthirsty emperor whose empire encompasses more than a thousand kingdoms, scattered over a hundred worlds? Poor little Pinocchio is suffering seriously divided loyalties between his father, the Adversary, and his fellow Fable refugees in the Mundy world. What does he do while his father hosts a secret conference of the imperial elite to decide the ultimate fate of Fabletown? Plus, this issue contains the first of four short self-contained backup stories featuring Rapunzel.

Plot

Some Ideas Towards the Prospect of a Final Solution for Fabletown

Muddlecock is going to a big conference that the Empire is having. Geppetto tells Pinocchio is going to play a special role. Geppetto and the Snow Queen talk while at Fabletown, Red Riding Rood gets a new look and Flycatcher turns into a frog. The Snow Queen tells everyone that they are preparing for a complete, full on attack of Fabletown.

Hair

Following a night in the life of Rapunzel, she discusses the limitations placed upon her by her fast-growing hair and the requirement to avoid being caught in the mundy world.

Continuity

This issue erroneously places the I Am the Eggman Diner on the corner of Bullfinch Street and Kipling street. However, as seen in Fables #76 — "Around the Town," and confirmed by the map of Fabletown printed in the trade paperback Fables: Wolves, the diner is located on the corner of Bullfinch Street and Andersen Street; Kipling Street is located on the other end of Bullfinch Street.
