Heya,
Rhain1999, I'll take this one. I actually checked a copy out at my local library and read it so I feel SUPER PREPARED to take this on. I'll ping you again when the first pass of the review is done, although if you see a comment that needs addressing before I'm done, by all means go ahead and address it! Best, BobAmnertiopsis∴ChatMe! 22:23, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

1b
- Link Ellie once in the lead and the first time her name appears in the body of the article. Subsequent links aren't needed.
- Likewise, you probably don't need to link anything in the caption of the image of Druckmann.
- You mention in the lead that the issues were collected in an edition published October 2013. This does not come up anywhere else; I'd suggest a separate section beneath Issues with a listing of the collected edition to justify this.
2a
- Do you have an ISBN for Ref 1 (it's a book, right?)
2b, 2c
- Well cited throughout, using a variety of secondary sources (all of which are ARCHIVED, thank you!)
3
- Covers major elements in detail.
- Does not go on tangents.
4
- Gives due weight to criticism. Looks good!
5
- No warring. Very stable.
6
- Good inclusion of images (2 nonfree, properly tagged; 1 free, hosted on Commons with proper attribution and info).
Just a couple more things to do,
Rhain1999! Thanks for crafting a neat, informative on this series. It's well on its way to GA. BobAmnertiopsis∴ChatMe! 03:37, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

- Rhain1999, I've run this article through the copyvio detector and there was one phrase that stuck out to me as being a little longer than I'm comfortable with for copyvio purposes: "the ideal character to focus on in the comic", from the IGN source. If you wouldn't mind rephrasing it in some way, I think this article would be GA-ready! BobAmnertiopsis∴ChatMe! 23:27, 4 July 2015 (UTC)]
