Naturally, as Alex + Ada’s preeminent fanboy, I reached out to the creative team to talk about the story as a whole, how it developed, whether the ending was what they always envisioned it as, future plans, and a whole lot more. I won’t get into it, but the final issue of the series was a heartfelt, expertly crafted example of how to end a series well. Over the fifteen issue story, Luna and Vaughn made readers laugh, cry, rage, smile and many other things on the emotional scale that Pixar’s Inside Out undoubtedly covered, and with last week’s issue, it has now wrapped with a beautiful finale. I’m a hopeless romantic, and a story like that one cuts straight to my heart. My favorite story in comics the past couple years has been Jonathan Luna and Sarah Vaughn’s Alex + Ada, a story from Image Comics that effortlessly blends romance with a civil rights movement set in a very tranquil vision of the future.
