Fantastic book, but the writing on the last issue got a tad heavy-handed with the repetition. The series as a whole is more than good enough to make up for this tiny, tiny issue, though. The action got a little clunky in parts, but the unraveling of the plot was done reasonably enough to keep it from appearing to be a different kind of comic altogether to the uninitiated reader. I feel Lemire is a fantastic artist for emotion and I applaud his stretching of legs as of late, but for me, nothing beats the heartbreaking fragility of his watercolored "dream" or "memory" segments. A series more than worth the investment, and one you'd be proud to share with friends. I don't know too many people who wouldn't enjoy some aspect of Sweet Tooth. An incredible series comes to a bittersweet, satisfyingly deep close. Like some of the great cable TV dramas of recent years, Sweet Tooth consistently delivered suspense, thrills-n-chills, heartbreak, and wonder. It made you fall in love with a strange, fragile protagonist who evolved from a naive boy into a worldly man; as well as the flawed, brutal, but ultimately heroic guy who protected him in Lemire's fascinatingly unique take on the post-viral disaster type setting. A top-notch example of the kind of epic storytelling mainstream comics can achieve when the publishers step outside the narrow superhero box. For fans of The Stand, The Road, Lost, The Twilight Zone, Y: The Last Man, and Alan Moore's Swamp Thing.
