Just as a warning: spoilers in this.

I have to say, Elegy's been a great story, but that last chapter by far surpasses anything before presented to it. The plot twist of having Theran from another universe appear is good.

But by far my favorite were the choices presented to Range. After all that he's gone through, the story has boiled down to a simple three options, all of which lead to the same conclusion... It's sort of a sad metaphor for real life, where, no matter what we do or what choices we make, we end up dying in the end anyway. Not only does this fit with the title (an elegy, after all, is a funeral song, and I guess we know who the song is for), but it is an existential and need I say fundamental insight into the human condition, all done through the medium of simple comic. This maintains the artistic integrity of the series, and brings it to an epic, climactic, and need I say heartbreaking conclusion.

Excellent work Vorred. Not only did you finish your series with a cohesive, definite narrative end that tied up all the plot threads nicely, but you also maintained your artistic integrity through the whole thing and left us with a deep and moving statement about the meaning of our lives in the bigger picture. Bravo, Vorred. Bravo.
