3.0

Rhetorical question: when will this series stop destroying me? Because this one made me straight up cry. One of my favorites is dead, there are several layers of tragedy to wade through from the planetary to the familial level, and these idiots continue to make questionable-at-best or completely-messed-up-at-worst decisions with their sex lives.

And it has one of the most gut-punch endings I've ever experienced. I don't anticipate a swift recovery.

5.0

Not that the other volumes weren't emotional, but I feel like this volume just takes it to another level. Vaughan and Staples aren't afraid to take on difficult topics, especially when it comes to war and other things. And I know that's true for volumes after this, too.

Oh, I forgot how sad this one ends. Like, seriously, what an ending to a volume. Vaughan and Staples really know how to play withe their reader's emotions. There's so much to unpack in this series as well, so much that relates to what's happening in the real world. I think I will forever love this comic series, for so many reasons.
