A decent end to a series I found more interesting visually than intellectually. The mysterious robot thing really goes nowhere huh? I guess it was intended to be more metaphorical, as this issue reveals, but that wasn't conveyed clearly in the earlier issues. Considering that was the aspect that worked least for me, think I'd have dismissed it more if I hadn't thought it would eventually manifest in something more sci-fi. Emotionally satisfying even if it feels like a dozen plot  threads are left hanging.
