Ellie riding horses? That one throwaway line Ellie says about just learning it in the game is given some expansion here. So if you have played the game, the comic does a wonderful job of illustrating how certain things came to be that are never given much explanation. A lot of the moments that make you quote Joel and Ellie’s favorite line come from either A) knowing what happens to Ellie right before the game starts and that this won’t end pretty or B) little moments peppered throughout the game that are actually given focus here. Now, most of the issue’s emotional hits don’t come from having read just the comic.
To quote literally any character from The Last of Us, “ Fuck.” I sobered up and realized that a tie-in probably wouldn’t have much to do with much to do with the game’s ending, or even most of the main plot, and then opened the issue to find that the miniseries was about how Ellie came to meet the Fireflies and need to be accompanied by Joel for the main game. While the credits rolled and I lay in a sprawling heap, still recovering from the game’s ending – and knowing that no shower would ever make me clean again – I almost dreaded having to go back into Joel and Ellie’s world to read the comic book tie-in. For the sakes of clarification, the comic tie-in will be called “American Dreams” and the game will go by its regular title. Right before I read “American Dreams” I finally finished playing The Last of Us, Naughty Dog’s survival-horror/stealth-action/soul-scarring story about a smuggler named Joel accompanying a girl named Ellie across a post-fungal-infection America while avoiding the deadly infected (“They’re not zombies!” Naughty Dog screamed in the distance) and desperate scavengers.
