If Alice pulls out the "just obeying orders" defense I will be disappointed in her.

"Just obeying orders" has a completely different aspect to it if you have been genetically hardwired to need to have a commander and obey their orders (as Sedna pointed out the combat-optimised units had). For Alice and the other super-soliders, it wasn't a choice or even a cultural tradition, it was a physical and psychological necessity without which they could not function or would possibly even die.

Alice herself feels culpable. Sedna said something to the effect "You haven't forgiven yourself in five thousand years".

LKR1009:
Jeph's new QC blurb says AG should end this week. I'm not ready. :'(

Any final wishes for the comic?

I want Church's good eye to open up, years later, as a "to be continued."

TheEvilDog:
Hold onto you breeches, we're looking at the last week of Alice Grove.

If all goes according to plan.

(And I want a Beneath the Planet of the Apes ending!)

I hope Jeph proves me wrong, but if he does that he'll leave more story lines with slap-dash endings than Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.  (I've always wanted to know about Neville Longbottom's transformation from hopeless dweeb to guerilla general.)

Neko_Ali:
I also am rather doubtful of the story wrapping up in a week's worth of comics without a ton of questions left unanswered.
