A beautiful ending to a great series!

A beautiful ending to a great series!
I’m not going to lie… I was all over the place in this volume. We start off with Ada and this dream that she keeps having, but it almost seems more like a premonition than a dream. They ignore that fact and move on with their life. Alex’s friend host a party and invited both Alex and Ada. While at the party one character becomes suspicious of Ada which leads to her being attacked. You can really feel her emotions at this point and realize that she has the power to harm a human and doesn’t. This is when Alex shows up and is able to help defuse the situation.Already struggling and trying to deal with the stress of hiding Ada, Alex gets a call about his Grandma. She’s very sick and was hiding it from him. He’s again thrown into a place where his emotions spiral. Things go downhill from here. He’s dealing with the loss and confusion as to what comes next when things turn even more dangerous and forces Alex and Ada to run.I had a feeling it would end a certain way and while it did end that way in one comic, the next one turned out to push it even further. I’m not sure I was totally in love with how it ended though. It seemed a little unrealistic (although very sweet). I almost wanted it to end the way I predicted…Overall it was a pretty great conclusion. I’m actually a little sad this series is over. Alex + Ada was such a sweet story, a great concept, and the artwork... gorgeous! I know I've mentioned it time and time again, but seriously its simply beautiful!

The last book of three in the saga of Alex + Ada. I was sad to see it end. A really wonderful short-series based on a near-future world. Robots with AI, their rights, and their place in the world is argued through the characters in this book. The last book showed a world reflecting our own, where people are arguing over civil rights. I think it did so in a very realistic approach. I'm not a huge fan of this art style, but it worked really well with this three-part series. Check it out!

Alex + Ada is a nice story. It does sum up like a little package very quickly, and abruptly. The ending is just a little too sweet for my taste, as it comes so abruptly. The artwork is slightly too simple for my taste. The storyline caught my attention enough to read all the way through to the end, but i'm glad that it did end so quickly, because I didn't want to spend a whole lot more money on such a simple art, and simple story. It was a nice read, though, and I enjoyed it.

I was doubtful that Luna could wrap everything up with a satisfying conclusions in Vol 3, but he pulled it off (though some significant time-lapse was needed...)

fitting conclusion to a great series. I only wish there was going to be more!

Only complaint is that the storyline was set up in such a way that they could have made this a much longer, more in-depth story. Loved the characters, just want more of them. 3 volumes was not enough.

I really like'd Girls by the Luna brothers, but Alex + Ada is a little bit too simple and predictable. It's a short, enjoyable read though with some interesting ideas if not unique ideas.

I had trouble ranking this volume. The plot starts to get interesting and then the series rushes to its conclusion and has a cheap out to keep the tragedy at bay. It seemed rushed and many threads are not explored. But the parts of if that work are the best parts of the series.

Bellissima storia sulla robotica e sulla nascita dell'intelligenza artificiale.
Il disegno è un po' scarno, ma la storia è così coinvolgente che ci si abitua subito allo stile grafico.

5.0 out of 5 stars Moving, Uplifting and Intelligent conclusion
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 7, 2015
This is the concluding volume of the pogniant story of love between Alex & Ada.

NB: This contains some spoilers, so if you’ve not read the previous volumes please quit this now and read reviews of Volume 1. As for readers of Volume 1 & 2 I will keep such things to a very bare minimum.

To the story:
The pace and the direction of the previous volumes continues with the same emphasis on quality of intelligent narrative and compellingly understated art.

Now that the A.I restrictions act has been passed and working under Operation Avalanche life for Ada is becoming more difficult with prejudice against all Androids growing and the challenge of keeping her sentient (criminal) status a secret. Alex is a man struggling with issues far beyond any he imagined with his growing love for Ada pushing him way beyond any safety boundaries of his previous withdrawn lifestyle.
Drawn into this are the human lives of his supportive friends Teji & Emily; his colleagues Jacob and Isobel and of course his grandmother.
In support of Ada are those of her own community; in particular in this volume Su & Zelda.

Essentially, as you may assess from the cover, at some stage the couple’s cover is blown and they are on the run from the authorities. And it would not be right to give any more away because of the number of twists and turns the tale takes, suffice it to say there will be a conclusion.

One of the most fascinating aspects of this trilogy is how effective the comparatively passive style of artwork works in complimenting the very intelligent narrative. Quite often there are several panels in which characters simply stand facing each other and engaging in conversation. This seems to be underlying the almost sterile world where ‘phone’ conversations or operations of electrical equipment take place by thought and much in the way of physical menial tasks is undertaken by the android. Then when the action takes place it jolts the reader by its the sudden appearance.
In absence of excessive action, the lack of ‘heroically’ shaped characters and the simplicity of the style much more time and direction can be placed upon the emotions of the various characters and through this highlights the situation. On the whole brings in a very powerful effect at important junctions in the tale. As one example without giving anything away, there is one whole page given over to Su and this leaves the reader in no doubt Su is a living and feeling being who deserves our attention and compassion.

Throughout the narrative Ada grows as a person, as she embraces the sentient status, sometimes told in comic interludes, such as swatting Alex with a pillow, others in the more dramatic when face to face with anger and violence.
Alex meanwhile grows in stature finding depths to challenge the power of The State and also the prevailing social mores; willing to place Ada above all else.

Thus this final part of the trilogy is a turbulent episode; prejudices, insecurity, love, sacrifice, support, defiance, commitment, compassion and tragedy all on display, but not necessarily in that order. And there are also clever but rational twists but no more about those, meeting them is part of the joy of this volume.

If you have Volumes 1 & 2 volume 3 will not disappoint you.
Sarah Vaughn and Jonathan Luna have produced an impressive work whose three volumes will sit well in any graphic collection
