Metal Gear Solid V is an excellent video game with a terrible ending. You may have heard this before.
Fortunately, we’ve got fan artists! Illustrator Cody Shaw, who runs all sorts of video game art on his Tumblr, drew this wonderful comic that ties a nice, satisfying bow on The Phantom Pain. It’s got GIANT SPOILERS, obviously, so don’t read on unless you’ve finished the game.
Here’s the comic, republished on Kotaku with Shaw’s permission:

I like it.
I unfortunately had the ending spoiled for me a few days ago. Partially my fault too, once I started reading the sneaky comment on a random YouTube video, I had to know if it was the truth or not. So from what I’ve read about the ending, this comic above is wonderful.
I’m talking the dialogue and art style are so perfect and the art especially reminds me of the MGS style in the instruction manual. And also a fitting conclusion to Venom Snake. Really enjoyed it.
