His tail was chopped off and sent to Phil with a ransom note In the final installment Phil finds Floyd at the satanic cult’s lair. In exchange for Floyd’s life Phil allows himself to be sacrificed. Doing so the cultists congratulate themselves on a job well done. They didn’t think about planning what happens AFTER they sacrifice Phil.

Summary
I have never envied a creative team in any form of media when it comes to ending a story “the right way”. You can go on tangents tying up every loose end (see Return of the King or Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End). You can also have a story that ends on a surprise note, like Se7en.
Man Goat and the Bunnyman #3 manages to thread the needle quite nicely. We have a climax and the epilogue doesn’t leave the reader feeling cheated. Well done!
This cover is well done. It lets you know there’s going to be action on the pages in between. Giving us a glimpse of the final showdown is powerful. I love that it actually translates nicely to the story. We need more of that!
The interior artwork throughout the series was spot on. It was crisp, vivid, and very detailed. I’d love to see more titles done like this. Hopefully we’ll be seeing more of Mr. Fajardo’s work as time goes on.
As a geek on a budget I felt like this story was a very good value for the price. It’s short, so you’re not looking at ongoing monthly (or biweekly in some cases) installments declaring war on your wallet.
I don’t know if Zenescope has any plans to make a TPB of this series. I’d recommend getting out to your local comic book store and grabbing all three books before they disappear for good!
