I'm going to be that greedy, awful fan that still longs for an epilogue one day. These living, breathing characters, I just can't say goodbye to them. But I have to, again.

Every re-read of OP is a treasure, but your commentary, reflection and musing alongside every strip was truly a gift. Thank you for everything you put into this, and best wishes to your family and what will certainly be another wonderfully crafted work with Perfect Tides.

Yep, same moment every time. Knowing this is the last time we see Hanna and Marek in the twilight of the city night always breaks me and OP ending becomes real.

If you look closely, you can actually pinpoint the exact moment my heart breaks in two.

Nah, I like playing update roulette. There's just nothing like the RUSH of not knowing if Mer updated or not.

I spent a feverish 10 minutes searching for "screaming white woman on fire" stock image back in the day to no avail. She's just so enraged. And on fire. I need it in full quality to really appreciate it.

This is a small detail, but I love Will's slightly distorted word bubble tail behind the car window in panel 9.

The trail of smoke ballooning in size as your eye is led to the reveal of Olly's is also just fantastic.

I don't know if Meredith is answering comment questions, but is this how you always saw OP ending?

During the original run, viewing this page on mobile made my phone at the time become molton hot :P

Cave Woman's "OK" sign as she fizzles out of existence always kills me.

I thought Eve lives in Brooklyn but Olly's location has never quite been disclosed? (I could be wrong)

I always wondered if Hanna's comment is implying she's actually in her early 30's. Larry is definitely 30, Will is "pushing 30" so either 28 or 29.

This is what I do, I desperately try to ascertain the ages of fictional characters to compare where my life is at with theirs.
