For decades the adventures of Cutter, the Chief of the Wolfriders, and his allies, enemies and family have poured out of creators Wendy and Richard Pini, and it's a bit of a shock to realize that this is the end.
The story they've created is epic in scale, covering a staggering number of characters representing assorted races - humans, trolls, high ones and numerous incarnations of elves.
It's been a 40-year effort loaded with imagination, adventure and lots of heart.
I'm not sure it's possible for a final issue with so many characters and stories, carried over so many years, to manage to tie it all up in a tidy bow - but this comes very close.
It's touching and surprising - and if there's a plot still dangling out there somewhere, I must've missed it.
It's an impressive accomplishment - a long run of tremendous art and powerful storytelling. Kudos to the Pinis!
