159: Sunrise
Holy crap did I seriously just finish this? I think I did.
As I type this none of the final pages have gone live yet, so I don’t know what the reaction is going to be like. I hope you guys enjoyed reading my stupid little fancomic. It’s far from perfect, but it was nice while it lasted and I made a lot of really good friends through this fandom. I think I’m done with TF2 for a long time though.
A few people have asked throughout the course of my doing this comic about a print version. I’d love to be able to make one for you but since this is a fancomic I don’t own all the rights to it and cannot legally sell it. Instead, I plan to put together a PDF version that you can then take to a print shop and make a book yourself. I’m not sure how long that’s going to take but I’ll make a post here and on my tumblr when it’s ready. I’m not sure how long it’s going to take. I find the early pages quite hard to look at these days and they were never drawn with the intent to print them. I also need to add a cover and some content of some kind since it came out to an odd number of pages. If anyone would like to submit any fan art or fiction for the PDF let me know.

OH MY GOSH <3
December 9th, 2011 at 12:03 am
…And they lived happily ever after. The End.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:03 am
This is the best TF2 fancomic I've ever seen, and while I'm not thrilled to see it end, at least it ended well 😀
December 9th, 2011 at 12:04 am
*manly tears* Damn straight they did.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:04 am
Blushing Jordi and Jeremy, adorable James, grown-up Peep, and an epic shot of Team Purple driving off into the sunset.
A fitting end for an awesome webcomic, I think.
/pretending to be calm about this
December 9th, 2011 at 12:04 am
Well said, Zombie Otter. Well said indeed.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:06 am
I'm still in a little shock that it's over. That I won't be here 24 hours from now, spamming the comments page on the next update.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:07 am
[Emotional overload imminent.]
December 9th, 2011 at 12:10 am
Dammit, I said I wasn't gonna…*sniff*
December 9th, 2011 at 12:14 am
Okay, an actual comment now that I had time to process.
CV was my one of my first introductions to TF2 fandom, and definitely the reason I started drawing again. I don't usually follow webcomics exactly (usually I forget they exist for a few months before remembering and going on an archive binge), but being able to watch CV to its end, even if I jumped in late, has been a real privilege. And even though I'm sad CV is done, I'm ecstatic about the other comics, especially since some of the CV characters live on in all their slashy glory. (And now Kytri can make money off them and their awesomeness!)
Thank you Kytri for taking the time to tell this story and see it through to the end. I hope you're as pleased with your work as your fans are. Catch you over at Sin Pararse and Worst Idea.
Love,
Ellen

W-would you like the kleenexes with or without added aloe lotion?
December 9th, 2011 at 12:15 am
[massive understatement]
December 9th, 2011 at 12:17 am
…One of both, please.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:17 am
[clever riposte also in brackets]
I mean. [cry all the tears]
December 9th, 2011 at 12:19 am
Good thing I brought extra. *kleenex tsunami your way*
Damn. Guess…. guess I have to start with the fanfiction and fanart now. Of a fancomic.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:21 am
Incedentally, I also got back to drawing after seeing Kytri's work. I was avoiding art just to spite everyone who assumed I was going into an art career. I am now less spiteful.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:23 am
Fanception.
WE HAVE TO GO DEEPER.
*DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN*
December 9th, 2011 at 12:24 am
I avoided art because all my best friends were either in art school or had that level of talent and I was always super frustrated with EVERYTHING I drew. Now, I'm less frustrated and more okay with the fact art is supposed to get better over time. 😀
December 9th, 2011 at 12:26 am
I suggest: fanfiction and fanart developed from a ROLEPLAY of a fancomic.
Which may or may not later lead to cosplay. But that might just be getting ridiculous.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:33 am
Whoooa…! *splodes*
FANFICTION IDEA: An epic narration of the uneventful bus ride home.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:37 am
It's over? Oh god it's over?! WHY?! D:
December 9th, 2011 at 12:38 am
What do you mean uneventful?
http://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_lv…
December 9th, 2011 at 12:40 am
The end? For real? No 20 years later epilogue? :C
December 9th, 2011 at 12:42 am
Okay, fine. I *guess* wacky hijinks could ensue.
(…I cannot get enough of that reaction! XD)
December 9th, 2011 at 12:44 am
It's Jordi's face. It's just. It's beautiful. That expression. That hair. /That nose./
It'd be a mix of wacky hijinx and Bleu and Scout snuggling and that awkward laughter when you realize you just got out of deep shit by the skin of your teeth, and deep contented silence while holding hands.
Which is then interrupted by a chicken making a nest in your hair.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:45 am
I… I…
*all the tears*
*all of them*
*and they're happy but oh god it's over.*
*Oh wait look I found more tears*
Thank you for this, Kytri. Truly, truly, thank you. Thank you so much.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:47 am
*passes out kleenex* I feel ya, bro.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:51 am
Damn… I can't believe it's over… That was a fantastic comic.
But hell, it's not like I won't see anymore of your work. Worst Idea is still going strong, and Sin Parase is… in progress? I dunno, donations are random… Still, I wish you good luck on all of your future projects.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:53 am
And just like that it's over… I promised myself I wouldn't cry… *Tears of sorrow and joy* *Clapping*
December 9th, 2011 at 12:56 am
*snags kleenex* *sniffles gratefully* Thanks, man.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:58 am
And then we find out that the sun is actually sucking the Earth in, explaining its close proximity to the earth in the final panel.
They all die in a horrible fiery ball of death.
(I kid, I kid)
December 9th, 2011 at 12:59 am
It's…over…
It's…over?
But..I…It's…
;x; It's over.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:00 am
Oh my god where did you find this.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:03 am
I didn't think I'd get this emotional (the last page was pretty much proof of a happy ending, I thought I was in the clear), but seeing the sunset bleeding into the gutters like that just…ugh. Feelings everywhere. This was a beautiful comic – you really told the story well, and maybe you're too close and too involved to see it right now, but I hope someday you can look back and see why we all got so insane about this. Because it is really, really good. And I have to thank you for sticking with it to the end.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:05 am
Kytri's tumblr. I'd post a link, but I'd probably get spamfiltered.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:07 am
I found it on the forums but oh my god she has a tumblr?!
December 9th, 2011 at 1:08 am
ISN'T IT GLORIOUS
December 9th, 2011 at 1:08 am
Alas, I never got a first comment </3
it's been fun
:'D
Wat say. See idk wat say
It's over.
I loved it though. At least make pictures of them every once and a while? :3
December 9th, 2011 at 1:09 am
Totally just signed up at the forums with the sole purpose of furthering my fangirlish squeeing, and I think if I weren't so sleep deprived there might have been an actual tear or two.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:11 am
It's so wonderful to see this comic reach it's lovely and calm conclusion. After about 2 years of reading, it was a wonderful ride. I'm sad that I won't have the surprise of it being updated anymore and worst of all I'll have to find something to replace it on the Top Sites page in Safari.
We'll all see this comic when we want to remember some of the sweetest and funniest things we've seen or read I think.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:14 am
Eeyup. kytri.tumblr.com
December 9th, 2011 at 1:14 am
Is thi otter? Like my otter? Or a different otter? xD
December 9th, 2011 at 1:17 am
*eyes shine* You've done good work tonight, Count Snarkula.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:17 am
You'd think Kytri'd be a bit more emotional about the ending of one of the greatest fan comics anybody here has ever read that will no doubt leave a lasting impression on the community.
Anybody else notice that? Makes me a bit sad since everyone else is really touched to see the comic end.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:20 am
Jordi: Oh god I hadn't thought about that yet
December 9th, 2011 at 1:22 am
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!
Okay, you did it. You made laugh.
YOU…are a worthy opponent.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:23 am
On the plus side…
NOW I CAN BINGE-READ THE ENTIRE COMIC FROM BEGINNING TO END. 😀
December 9th, 2011 at 1:26 am
*bows* Thank you for verbally sparring with me, World's Greatest Snarktective. (I don't really like that one, but I thought I might as well put it through anyway.)
…on an unrelated note, I wonder how Kytri feels about all this attention from insane fangirls.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:26 am
Jeremy: I HAVE.
Jordi: Wh-what?
Jeremy: Oh, nothing.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:27 am
I JUST DID THAT TODAY AND ENDED AN HOUR BEFORE THE FINAL PAGE WAS POSTED <3333
December 9th, 2011 at 1:28 am
Well, she's been doing for years, and seems a little tired of it. And lots of people like CV, yet the vast majority ignore her original work.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:30 am
She may very well be! Everyone handles these sorts of things differently, and I'm sure she has a different perspective on this story that's been in her head for years than we do as fans. (Especially people like me who haven't been around that long.) There's also the problem of the internet being a poor medium to transmit emotion. Which is why my moderate levels of "awww, this was such a good comic and I'm sad to see it go" gets translated into… well. Insane fangirl ramblings. Just so everyone's one the same page.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:30 am
For me sleep deprivation always makes it harder to fight tears. I just took my laptop and am hiding out in the laundry hut for privacy to sob.
(welcome to the forums!)
December 9th, 2011 at 1:31 am
Love this so much. I have had so much fun reading all of this and I am greatly looking forward to a PDF version of it so I can read it whenever I what, from anywhere (Yay Nook). I hope you continue to create such great comics and writing into the future. :3
December 9th, 2011 at 1:32 am
I /love/ her original work. Worst Ideas and Sin Pararse make me giggle like a madman on a sugar high. 😀
December 9th, 2011 at 1:34 am
Oh sweetie! D: (Part of it is also the stress of finals at college and knowing if I start crying now over anything, the storm will not abate anytime soon.)
(And thank you! My username over there is Sageling. I haven't belonged to any forums for a long time.)
December 9th, 2011 at 1:35 am
Aww, Its over…But on the bright side, They escape, Jordi and Jeremy kiss, and to top it off, an epic picture of the bus riding into the sunset ( or is it sunrise? dunno, But who cares XD). IN OTHER WORDS, AWSOME!
December 9th, 2011 at 1:36 am
I stumbled onto this just a few hours ago, lo and behold the end is here! Loved it.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:39 am
Oh, Jeremy. You can't hide anything like that…(especially when it comes to us fans).
On a more solemn note, it's just like something came full circle for my heart just now, and it just feels so complete. The idea that it's over, all the fighting and the nightmares (well, maybe not the nightmares, but now Jeremy and Jordi can be there to hold each other when they happen), and they just don't have to worry about any of that anymore, not Rojo, not the crazy Soldiers, not the war…it was such a hard-earned ending, and now they can finally be happy, the way they should have been a long time ago if all this stuff with the war hadn't happened. But hey, maybe all that was for the best? Fire-forged friendships (and romances!) last the longest.
Thank you so much for this comic. Even though it's only been a little over a month since I started reading, I've gotten so much into it and I almost feel like I was living out some of those moments next to your characters, the comedy, the tragedy, the most heartwarming. It's been a long time since that happened…so just….thank you. So much.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:40 am
Kytri, I just want to say how much all this means to me. Cuanta Vida was my VERY FIRST webcomic, and I've loved it from start to finish. I don't really know how to put it into words, but thanks for introducing me to all of this. You've inspired a lot of people.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:44 am
*in grandma story time voice* And so, Spy and Scout went on to have the most epic road trip, with Peep, and Elvis Sniper, and aaaalll their friends! Except for those bastards they left behind at RED base. And the two even got lucky later that night! How lovely. And that is the story of how a really lousy (but very lovable) spy became credit to team… Thee End.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:45 am
I said "vast majority" for a reason. WE ARE THE 1%
Although, CV fans my just be more vocal.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:45 am
Grandma, did they have to walk uphill both ways 15 miles in the snow?
December 9th, 2011 at 1:48 am
Ohh, silly girl! * tousles hair* You bet your ass they did! Except when they drove, and occasionally partied with the desert creatures
December 9th, 2011 at 1:49 am
What timing! I stumbled on it when Bleu shot Rojo. Helluva first impression, eh?
December 9th, 2011 at 1:49 am
Eurgh, finals. I don't envy you, but I do wish you luck with them, and with holding onto sanity through them.
(I did figure you for Sageling!
I'm silentstep everywhere.)
December 9th, 2011 at 1:49 am
The title helpfully says "Sunrise". ;p
December 9th, 2011 at 1:51 am
…did.. did you just make a Kung Pow reference? Can I flying ninja tackle hug you now?
December 9th, 2011 at 1:52 am
oh deary me, I seem to have made another post instead of a reply!
December 9th, 2011 at 1:54 am
It's okay grandma, your eyes aren't what they used to be.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:54 am
Tell me again about Rojo going on a serial maiming spree, Grandma!! 8D
December 9th, 2011 at 1:55 am
Pffft looks like it's time to leave a little love on her other webcomics' comments page then! *cracks knuckles*
December 9th, 2011 at 2:04 am
You're too kind! And yes honey, you may flying ninja tackle hug me… or as you young kids call it "extreme glompage"
December 9th, 2011 at 2:08 am
Now, now, it's way too late and past your bedtime! Some of us have old people class in the morning, you know! Maybe another time when it's not 1:00 in the god damn morning, and I can come up with something wittier to say.
December 9th, 2011 at 2:13 am
Awwww, Grandma! *pouts, yawns, and tries not to fall asleep*
December 9th, 2011 at 2:23 am
i just got home from work and saw this.. ugh, SO MANY EMOTIONS. what a perfect ending. i am so happy! and also so sad! i don't know what my feelings are doing. kytri you are perfect and wonderful and i love you to infinity and beyond for this comic.
December 9th, 2011 at 2:37 am
I would pay good money to see fan art of them partying with desert creatures. So much money.
December 9th, 2011 at 2:42 am
God, this is gonna be so weird the next few months, because after checking Worst Idea I'm going to keep clicking back here to see if it's updated, just out of habit.
For lack of anything more eloquent to say- You done good, skipper. I'm very proud of you making it all the way through.
December 9th, 2011 at 2:47 am
whelp now i have to look for something else to do with my life
December 9th, 2011 at 3:23 am
… it's finished… this is a strange feeling. I follow this comic so long and now its over… I'm kind of sad .__.
I need to draw a fanart, to honor this amazing piece of art!
December 9th, 2011 at 3:36 am
*standing ovation*
December 9th, 2011 at 4:17 am
I have never even played the game, and I've been following from when I have no idea when, but it was a jolly good ride, thank you. I'm always sad to remove a comic from my feed (though I let them sit for quite a while after they end juuussst in case the author posts something new. I'm following your other stuff, so it's not so painful to see it end this time.
Thank you!
December 9th, 2011 at 4:20 am
‘Twas first light in 2fort and in the BLU base, the soldier was stirring with his snarl on his face. After doing his 500 pushups for the ‘morn, he went to encourage his teammates! (with scorn)
He burst in on the Demo and yelled “Up you scot, it’s time you saw how AMERICAN wars should be fought!”
But there wasn’t a Demo, he found with a gasp.
Both he and the Pyro were missing- or trapped!
And no sooner did he go off to rally the men, then he found the whole team had gone missing with them!
The engie was missing, no scout to be found- even that fat russian the heavy couldn’t be found!
Most would have been puzzled, but the soldier soon thought
“This is clearly that coward the spy’s god-damned fault!
He’s kidnapped my men so it would be the REDs that have won,
Well he shouldn’t have messed with this son of a gun!”
To the armory he lept with a light-footed step,
to take stock and be sure he could arm himself. ,
His launcher was there, still gleaming and polished
So he took up his Shovel and stocked up his rockets!
No snipers or airblasts! No scouts stealing intel!
No useless spys trying to hide from his shells!
He was ready for war! And though well outnumbered,
he knew he’d make REDs fear american thunder!
He ran out to the field to seek out the RED Team-
But their Heavy was already fast closing in!
He hefted his massive gun at Soldier and rained lead,
when a Crockit split open his fat commie head!
A smile shown briefly on soldiers face,
but a war’s to be won so into RED’s base!
So he charged the red base and he pressed the attack,
without even a team to help guard his back.
Then what to his patriotic eyes should appear
but the enemy soldier in RED Commie gear!
He was dressed all in crimson from helmet to pants,
HE must be a commie, it can’t be a chance!
They dueled with such fury! they let rockets fly!
They knew they each must see the other one die!
But american courage was no commie’s friend,
and so the RED Soldier at last met his end.
And so Soldier pushed on to take the intel,
and make all te kidnapping reds suffer hell!
He found the RED demo and killed him at once,
with the sticky trap he’d left at his feet, the drunk.
He took the briefcase, slunk it acros his back,
then he made to ensure they won’t press the attack
Not content with taking some damner intel case,
the soldier set to toppling RED’s entire base!
Rockets smashed in to rafters with a towering roar,
toppling celeings and cumbling floors!
And as he strode out proudly into the noon sun,
it was clear just to see that BLU had at last won!
Him epmloyers thanked him, and gave him a medal,
that he made himself to award him for mettle.
Then he outlined quite quiclky their new attack,
he’d take their battle back to them, all the damned way to frace!
“They’ll pay now for kidnapping my sorry team”
Soldier said to himself, while his eyes madly gleamed.
And he shouted quite madly to people running in fright,
“I’ve got crokets for all, so you’d al better FIGHT!”
December 9th, 2011 at 4:27 am
Kind of an anti-climax, if I'm honest.
December 9th, 2011 at 4:27 am
And it annoys me how it ended on 159, not 200.
December 9th, 2011 at 4:28 am
geez, the one time i actually try and log in and the internet borks it. damnit.
December 9th, 2011 at 4:30 am
is a fun game, even if you're not into the shooting part there's a lot of oddball modes made by the community that're great.
also, you have noticed the other two comics on the right of the comments right?
December 9th, 2011 at 4:53 am
So… what happened to the two Soldiers?
December 9th, 2011 at 6:09 am
Awww…… WHY IS IT OVER IT WAS THE BEST FAN COMIC EVER!!!!
December 9th, 2011 at 6:15 am
As sad as I am to see this wonderful piece of work come to an end, the ending itself is giving me so many warm fuzzies that i can't help but have this big goofy smile on my face.
Bravo Kytri, and thank you so much for this wonderful comic.
December 9th, 2011 at 6:44 am
And thus a great webcomic ends. Sad. But still awesome. Thanks for everything, Kytri. Awesome job.
And this coming from a guy that doesn't even like yaoi =p
December 9th, 2011 at 7:19 am
I don't know what to say, so I won't comment… oh wait, I did.
;_;
All I want to say is a big Thank You for Kytri, for making this amazing fancomic. Now I can die happy.
December 9th, 2011 at 7:33 am
It was raining the night he arrived,
in doing so he would change the history of the company forever,
he was burned,
he lost many of his friends,
red spy was the first,
but not the last,
and he barley escaped the encampment with his life.
In doing so he took larger risks,
being locked in and almost suffocated.
His risks saved the lives of many of his friends,
red and blu,
he never was good at spying,
but he was much better at something much more important…
December 9th, 2011 at 8:58 am
I had 16 years when this started ;_;
Can't believe its over.
But thank you so much for your time and your story Kytri
Have a super-hug from Spain <3
December 9th, 2011 at 9:30 am
It's over? I'm gonna miss it. BUT! on the bright side: it's time to re-read it from the beginning one more time, isn't it? 😀
December 9th, 2011 at 9:59 am
I may be at the bottom, I may be late on the wagon. But this comic has brightened my days, put me through stress just thinking about what could happen next, and made me sad at times. But throughout it all, I've had a damn good time.
It was a good ride. I'm pretty sad about it ending but hey, all good things come to an end.
NOW, LET'S GO BACK FROM THE BEGINNING!
December 9th, 2011 at 11:34 am
Well, I was at least hoping for 160, but Kytri said she'd put extras in the PDF.
December 9th, 2011 at 11:41 am
But… who was he narrating to in the beginning of the story?
December 9th, 2011 at 11:55 am
Sad it's over, but it was a fun ride. Didn't make as many comments as I should have. Still, I eagerly awaited each page that came out. Kudos on the great story, H.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:36 pm
This was NOT a silly little webcomic, this was the BEST webcomic I have ever read, and while I'm interested as to what the computers contained, the purpose of the second facility and what happened to the others, I'm glad it ended this way.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:40 pm
I'm probably going to get ripped at for this, but I'm disappointed.
That's it? I know time was tight and such, but that's it?
I loved the characters and story, but personally I think that ending was way too abrupt.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:42 pm
You did a great job and you know what I gotten into your other comic from reading this.
It is sad to see it end, but go with this. You can feel very proud you finish a long running series. -160 pages counts on that-
A lot of comic writers don't do that. -I can name two off the bat.-
So pat yourself on the back, pull out your favorite drink and savor it because you earn it and deserved it.
December 9th, 2011 at 12:56 pm
Rojo!
December 9th, 2011 at 1:03 pm
Sure, it was abrupt. But it's better than being dragged out. The rest is up to us to imagine. For the people to make their fanarts of, to imagine just how things played it. It's nice to have things done for us, but sometimes, you have to put in the effort.
December 9th, 2011 at 1:03 pm
played out*
December 9th, 2011 at 4:24 pm
I just started reading this two days ago, and by the time I finished my archive binge, I was just in time for the last page. My timing sucks, but I have to admit that I really enjoyed it.
Thanks.
December 9th, 2011 at 4:44 pm
I can't believe it's over…. ;_;
December 9th, 2011 at 4:52 pm
Couldn't have put it better myself
December 9th, 2011 at 5:23 pm
I feel ya. I read through a lot of the comments, but in the end I really wish I had participated more
December 9th, 2011 at 5:25 pm
That was beautiful.
December 9th, 2011 at 5:32 pm
Just wanted to let you know, this is the sixteenth webcomic I’ve read in eight years that actually made it to an end. Out of about 200 I bothered to bookmark. Thanks for making it.
December 9th, 2011 at 8:08 pm
And it's all over. I'm kinda sad to see it go, but at the same time, I'm glad I got to read it to the end. =)
Now off to read it all over again in its entirety~
December 9th, 2011 at 9:45 pm
I'd buy seven million copies.
If I weren't broke.
December 9th, 2011 at 9:50 pm
-clap-
December 9th, 2011 at 10:20 pm
It… it can't be over. No. I won't accept it!
WHY DO ALL GOOD THINGS HAVE TO END?
I guess I'll just have to read it all again. :c
December 9th, 2011 at 10:28 pm
*Sigh* All good things must come to an end. This comic was indeed fantastic.

At long last…The end has come.

I'd gladly purchase a CV PDF or book even if it was for a *wink* donation *wink*.

She says the last pages arent out yet.

Book ends! 😀

Cuanta Vida was just taken off the "Other Comics" button! It makes sense and all but, I think I'm freaking out!!
December 11th, 2011 at 5:09 am
I have been so emotionally invested in this comic.
I think if it hadn't been a happy ending I would have fallen apart.
December 11th, 2011 at 8:34 am
I did that too. xD
December 11th, 2011 at 7:55 pm
And so the BLU Spy and his friends escaped the war.
It was sad for some watching the events unfold to let them go,
But it was one hell of a ride.
December 12th, 2011 at 1:01 pm
Y'know, one of my favorite pages is still Scout calling Spy various derogatory versions of "gay." Oh, how the tables turned. XD
Thank you for finishing this, even if the ending is still a bit uncertain, it's a happy one. Excellent job, I say! Most excellent.
December 12th, 2011 at 2:25 pm
Hey. I don't think I've commented before, but here goes. I really liked your comic. I liked the art, the pacing, your interpretation of the characters, and all. I actually wish that we could explore your world a little more. But I'm glad you could finish this, because when you create something new, how it ends is important. Some writers never get to finish their work, and some refuse to if they aren't allowed to do it on their own terms. Being able to bring a story to life like you have is a huge undertaking; the fact that it's a fan comic in no way limits its quality, and only means that everytime I head over to a new 2fort server, I'll pretend that I got whacked over the head by a Soldier after playing some cards with an enemy Scout.

For any all mysteries, just blame Rojo.
December 13th, 2011 at 2:08 pm
Well, its all over. I honestly cant believe it ;~;. This is definately my favourite comic of all time, and i know i’ll definately read through it.
Thank you for making this epic fancomic.
December 13th, 2011 at 7:05 pm
well…..I have read it all…..from the start…I followed….and till the end…I Have to say one thing, this was amazing….love it….thank you for this comic…thank you..
(Sorry for mah bad english)

Terrible way to end. I mean, no offense, but just having them kiss, sunset, then the end? I’ve been reading since back when The Rift was still updating, and I feel that this didn’t tell enough about what happened. It would be cool to have something like, “5 years later” or something like that, but a sunrise does not satisfy my fanly needs.
December 14th, 2011 at 2:06 am
It also doesn’t explain what happened to the rest of the people that stayed behind. Will Rojo (whom I’m willing to bet alot of people don’t remember) find the teleporter, fix a bus somehow, and follow them, or will he stay behind with the restt of the people that stayed and continue fighting a war that no longer truly exists? Also, what about the computers? Is there going to be an explanation for that, or are we going to be left hanging on to the slim knowledge that we have of the backstory and hidden themes and easter eggs or secret meanings?
December 14th, 2011 at 2:18 am
Wow. It's so weird to see this end. This is the comic that really, REALLY got me into TF2. It's been one of the links on my Firefox startup page for as long as I can remember. And I have to say, it was a fun ride.
Thanks for the good times.
December 14th, 2011 at 4:01 am
On the other hand, Blu scout will never run again and Blu spy has all kinds of horrible burns.
December 14th, 2011 at 8:31 pm
Thank god it wasn't a 'kill them all' ending. This one was actually pretty sweet.
December 14th, 2011 at 8:43 pm
Yeah, that's what I meant by other stuff, I read her other comics now too
December 15th, 2011 at 5:30 pm
From what I've heard, there'll be more pages in the pdf. We'll probably see more about it. Also I don't see much wrong with it, sure, it's a bit abrupt, but it wrapped up a lot more than you think.
December 16th, 2011 at 9:56 pm
well… theres only one song to end this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59oSNeRvZUI
…now its a ending
December 17th, 2011 at 1:22 am
For me, I just don’t like it. What did it wrap up besides the people escaping and Jordi and Jeremy (I think) getting together for real? Not much for me.
December 17th, 2011 at 12:58 pm
Never mind, it was just hiding behind the ad at the top. Phew, think I'm good now.
December 18th, 2011 at 1:14 am
I'm in your base. I shot your engineer, killed your medic and scout and disguised as scout. I got in the intel room and BLU soldier was a dumbass and shot the other spy. Then I killed BLU soldier and BLU heavy. Then I captured your intel
December 18th, 2011 at 7:59 am
Soo… are we ever going to get any answers? Why is the war going on, what happens to people left behind, etc? Or are you going to be a troll and have final page consisitng trollface laughing us who want answers?
December 19th, 2011 at 1:54 am
Ohgodohgodohgod this comic was just so great for a fancomic. I'm really quite sad it's over but at the same time I'm happy that it actually ended. So many webcomics I read are given up on halfway through. Man this was just beatiful, I hope I can find something like it somewhere among the interwebz.
December 20th, 2011 at 10:25 am
i guess the only real song to end this with is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fITdiAxKRKs
December 21st, 2011 at 9:54 am
May I give you a fanfic story to you? I'm afraid it will be pictureless.
December 21st, 2011 at 2:41 pm
Uh, sure. I love fanfics.
December 29th, 2011 at 8:23 pm
The ending seems a little rushed. Nothing really gets any closure besides the fact that they escape.
Rojo was made out to be some huge villain only to be forgotten several billion pages back.
Jordi and Jeremy drove all the way to that abandoned building just to accomplish absolutely nothing.
No one figured out why the war started in the first place or who's in charge of the whole thing. The last few panels in the abandoned building looked like it was leading to those answers but then the story ended.
What happens now that most of the blu and red team pretty much left or died (though I guess it's assumed that new people gets shipped to the battlefield).
Disappointing ending overall which sucks since I loved the comic until The End came out of nowhere.
December 29th, 2011 at 8:32 pm
Oops correction, I forgot Rojo already died a while ago. Still can't say I like the ending though.
December 29th, 2011 at 11:43 pm
Hello! so i really love how blu scout went from calling spy a cockfag, to falling in love with him <3 Oh, and talk to me on deviantart, I'm ~Thefurryaddict
I was also thinking about making a tf2 comic of my own, based on the story I'm writing. How do you feel about OC's being in a tf2 story?
December 30th, 2011 at 11:31 pm
Is it fitting 'Speechless' is playing on my ipod?
December 31st, 2011 at 4:05 pm
Uh, pretty sure I\’m okay with OCs, considering this comic is populated almost entirely by them.
January 2nd, 2012 at 3:29 am
this is nice. :')
January 4th, 2012 at 5:11 am
All my tears, all of them!
Ok…lesse where to begin…
This was not exactly my first webcomic….but it IS one of the best I've read. c: Just….everything is so complete. So…omg…I can't believe it's over. o:
PFFT! Umm…all in all…been following since page 1 and y!gallery and all that jazz and thank you for a great fancomic! <3
January 4th, 2012 at 5:31 am
My goodness, lady, congratulations! I absolutely need to make you some fanart now.
February 7th, 2012 at 10:07 pm
you should make an epilogue to this! That would be awesome!
February 12th, 2012 at 5:51 pm
THIS IS AMAZING!! I like how you had a good mix of pairings and you draw hands incredibly well (I AM JEALOUS OF THAT) lol your amazing!!!!
February 16th, 2012 at 2:34 am
I…can't believe it's almost over. I've been reading this for a couple years…just wow. You capture the emotions of your characters beautifully. Making a story like this out of a game with no real storyline like Team Fortress 2, using only the (albeit well-developed) personalities of the characters to engage the readers in the way that you did. It got me through some hard times. I'm not afraid to admit that a few of the entries had me in tears. It got me through some really hard times, and I'm sad to see it finished, but happy that you did such a great job with it. Cheers!
P.S. I created an account just to say this.
