Die, Volume 4

I guess that makes about as much as sense as it was ever going to. Timey wimey magic aside, this series is really about the emotional lives of these characters and I think we see all of them progress in some way. Great art, big ideas and a fascinating conceit for anyone interested in RPGs.

I'm glad this is the last volume. The ending is not bad, and about as upbeat as it could be given the nature of the story that led to it, but it's still depressing. I still think this story is an anti-ad for roleplaying. It makes a nod towards RPGs being a method of self-exploration, but in the context of such exploration causing untold suffering for both the explorer and others.

I can't really recommend this story to others, but I don't regret having read it.
