![]() What parts of Gunnerkrigg do you think are the saddest? Hmm. I second fwip's suggestion of the current point in the story, but there are generally two kinds of sadness in this story. There are the sad-but-beautiful moments (93, 255, 669, 848, 1228, 1352), and the sucker-punch-to-the-soul moments (792, 776, 801 and the next few, 1089, and 1488 are notable). The distinction can be fuzzy, though... Oh, and of course, here! (I can also direct you to some well-written fanfictions of the former type if you wish. There are some beautiful and sad stories out there, especially about Renard.) There are also many happy moment in this comic, however, if you've forgotten. I'd be happy to dredge up some of those as well. |

The saddest page is whatever the current page happens to be at any given time because the wait for the next page is so terribly long!

I find the whole Jeanne thing just gut wrenching. This page hit me like a ton of bricks. But then, there's also "Pro Patria Mori". That whole chapter was bitter-sweet, of course. But it's the bonus page that drives the point home that Mort is gone for good. |

"The Coward Heart" with Jeanne telling her story. "See Ya!", the whole story was brilliant and that last page with the inscription with a fragment from Horace broke my heart. Later, "Totem" when the little jackalope was being changed into a totem moved me again to tears. These chapters are also a few examples of how marvelous a storyteller we have in Tom.
