Die Volume 4: Bleed

I said this once in another review. This ended the only way it could have. Surprisingly upbeat, I say surprisingly because there are tears in my eyes.

Art continue to be amazing and the intersection between fantasy and real life are very interesting and compelling on this great arc ending.

So this is the end I guess that's it I don't know what I was expecting but endings are hard

I have very little to add to my reviews of parts 1, 2, & 3. Did not disappoint. Stunning throughout.

I read all of Die Volume 4 in one sitting. After the last volume, I was ravenous to find out what happened next and get some answers. Like the rest of the series, this volume did not disappoint. While some of the answers seemed a bit cheap, for the most part I really liked the way things wrapped up. It was particularly hard hitting when they return from Die during the middle of covid, and they don't know what's going on. I don't know why but of all the emotional moments in this graphic novel series, seeing the world of the pandemic portrayed really got to me. The endings seemed fitting, for all of the characters. I am absolutely falling in love with the work of Kieron Gillen. I've also been reading his The Wicked + the Divine, and the writing is simply excellent in both. I will likely check out more of his work. At some point, I will also probably buy hard copy versions of this series so I can see the art in person; the colorful palates, nuance character depictions, and fabulous fantasy realm rendered in Die are all incredible. The art has a dreamy sort of fantastic feeling that fits the story of Die so well. Also, for those of you who have Kindle Unlimited, all four volumes of this particular GN are available for free with your subscription. Can't beat it!

I was so sad to see this series end, and I hope that Kieron and Stephanie will create new stories in the world of DIE. This book continues the story of the origin of the world, as the group descends into ... what else ... a dungeon.

For me, this has definitely been an epic series. The creativity and depth of this story far exceeded my expectations.

The ending was a bit of a bummer
