* ShoutOut: The face of an evil ghost possessing a host, as is the case with Bookworm and [[spoiler:Faru Totenkinder]] is a lot like when Voldemort's spirit possesses Quirrel in ''Literature/HarryPotterAndThePhilosophersStone''.

* ConflictBall: The initial conflict between Batman and Bibgy is out of character for both heroes. This is late in both characters careers (After Grayson is an adult and the main Fables comic run has ended), but the punch-first-ask-questions-never attitude would be aggressive even for the start of their runs. At one point, Batman even states that he's fighting Bigby because he's in a bad mood. It seems poorly written simply to get the fight going when both characters should be willing to talk.

Added DiffLines:

* LetsYouAndHimFight: It's clear that the murders [[spoiler: aren't being committed by Bigby, ]] but are a plot to get both the heroes to target each other rather than focus on the actual villains. Frustratingly both characters see this early in the story but continue their destructive conflict rather than talk it out.


Added DiffLines:

* StayingAlive: All of the Fables characters in this book have died at least once, and people not familiar with the reboot series would be shocked to see Cindy back again. [[spoiler: Totenkinder states that this was her 22nd death]].
