It was ok. It felt like a filler chapter. Willa reached another waypoint, some dots were connected and now we are prepared for the finale.
The art was good. I especially loved that star-filled night sky.
I am not terribly happy with the introduction of Willa‘s mother and their relationship in general. I still don‘t buy that she never tried to find the way back to her husband and child and just continued with a different life. And now that Willa shows up, it‘s all like „oh hey, nice to finally meet you“ and then it‘s back to business as usual.

Big plot holes. And the situation with the diminished gravity wasn‘t resolved in a satisfying manner either. And for a pivotal fight at the end of a series this wasn‘t too spectacular. A little disappointing?
The artwork is still good.
I wonder what will happen in the ultimate issue?

The end of this series. Did this issue deliver? Well, not really.
Was the story arch of these last few issues a good one? This last story arc was the weakest for me. Maybe. To be fair, I think I should re-read all 15 issues in one sitting at one point. The beginning of the series was definitely the most exciting.
I was a little underwhelmed by the plot of these last few issues.
Heavy on the uplifting message. Let‘s all be friends and things will turn out for the better. Willa riding off into the sunset. Sony movie deal?
Bonus for the artwork. ★★★½☆
