A satisfying end to a fantastic series. My only quibble is that I think an extra handful of pages would have enable the creative team to stick the landing a tiny bit more solidly. Still, one of my favorite series of 2025 and I cannot wait to see what they come up with next.

Everything about Gideon Falls was fantastic—the art was amazing, the dialog glittered, the characters were well-delineated—except for the actual story. Which had largely been seen before, but that's not a huge issue, necessarily, provided it's a good story and well told—I mean, how many variations upon classic Shakespeare plays have we seen, some of them extremely well done? How much better more

Freakin' Ennis, man. He's been so good for so long that it can be easy to forget just what a truly great storyteller he is. Endings can be hard, but here Ennis absolutely nails it perfectly. Surprising yet satisfying, this story will stick with you probably longer than you'd like.
