This volume felt like it took a wrong path and we got sidetracked from the plot. It's the second to last volume, and it feels like we are dragging on at this point instead of wrapping up. The characters are still good and the overall story arch has been good, just wish this volume was more streamlined. I hope all loose ends get tied up and the ending is satisfying.

Edge of the Universe follow Ozzie as he tries to go through life knowing hes the only one who remembers his best friend Tommy. He has all these memories about someone who according to everyone else does not exist. The universe is shrinking and he seems to be the only one who knows.

This book had a lot of ups and downs for me.. I loved the way Hutchinson pulls you into the story and gets you invested in the emotions of the characters. I really enjoyed the way he added a magical/fantastical element in a realistic modern contemporary. The underlying themes of medical health are weaved well into the plot..

My main issue with this book is the pacing... There is a big chunk in the middle that drags and not a lot happens.. This is almost a 500 page novel that didn't need to be that long. I'm also still torn on the ending and can't determine if I liked it or not.

We have reached the end of this graphic novel series..... The final volume was a let down for me.

The series started out so strong and got messier and more out of focus as it went along. What started out as this rural horror noir shifted into a more post-apocalyptic centered story.

The ending was not as deep and complete as it needed to be to tie up all plots and story line. Instead we got a gun battle. The ending felt very rushed and should have focused on the Cypress family since they were the main characters throughout the whole story.

Overall it was still a good time and a good read with a great art style if you like noir stories, but does have some low points in the last few volumes.

Meh...
