predictable, but a satisfying ending nonetheless. I'm gonna miss this amazing world that Hickman and Dragotta have drawn up, and the fascinating story that went along with it. Throughout the 6 years of this series, it never really let down in quality despite Hickman's work with Marvel taking a lot of precedent, and that's truly a feat in my opinion. I don't think there was a truly wasted character that didn't get a good arc, and it was just very nice to see a series end off without any other kind of tease or leadup for the next thing (cc descender). I know Hollywood has been eyeing this series for a TV show, and honestly, this would be a hit, especially with so much world building and interesting characters. This series is right up tmore
Hickman may not be my type of writer since Im in the minority, but overall I thought this series was solid and had good main characters. It jumps all around the place, but I enjoyed it. People should read it when they have the time, it took me a couple of re-reads.
A decent, if predictable, send off to an incredible world. What Hickman lacks in character development and scene setting, he more than makes up for in world building, lore, and imagination.
