I usually rabbit on in these reviews about the artwork, and it continues to be amazing - the transformation of Obsession from dragon into a maelstrom of thorns is particularly effective. However, for once the story affected me more than the art. It's quite a quiet story, too - Sissy and Clara, caught in Obsession's grasp and talking to each other about the value and difficulty of forgiveness. I've read this comic several times over the past few months (and finally getting round to logging it here) and each time the end makes me tear up, or nearly. Just beautifully done, and a wonderful conclusion to Clara's story.
