[STEAM] The Team Fortress 2 Comic Has Released Its Long-Awaited Final Issue

[Steam 0]

The story itself concludes a long, winding journey that TF2 fans have been waiting a long time to see updated, so I won't spoil the rest of the comic here.

The comics have served as an invaluable tome to find out more about the different TF2 characters, especially background characters like Miss Pauling and The Administrator. The comics are very much worth a full read if you haven't checked them out already.

Valve is continuing the trend of emerging from what seems like some kind of gaming hibernation, first with the release of the
