Elfquest, one of the first breakout indie comics of the 1970s, is ending its 40-year-run with today's issue. There's a farewell signing with creators Wendy and Richard Pini tonight [Wednesday] at Things From Another World in Portland[, Oregon]...

[...] "A number of interviews sprang up this week but those with The Hollywood Reporter and SyFy are best. Both contain spoilers! "

There'll be more Elfquest in future, the Pinis say, but this wraps up the tale for their towheaded Wolfrider chief Cutter and his family.

    I had not thought about Elfquest for a long time, don't think I read any of it since the mid 80's. I checked out the latest issue, doesn't seem like anything really changed. It's almost like a soap-opera but with slutty fantasy elves in the woods -- as it has always been.

    Looks like the humans invented guns and came to conquer ... the end?

    Don't click if you don't want to know about the last/latest issue.

    But elves with mullets! Truly the defining cultural achievement of our times.
