Now that the end is only about a year away, I'm actually pretty interested. There just seems to be an utter fuck ton of disorganized series and not much in handy collections and I like buying my comics.

...This is still going? Holy shit.
Is it still all available online? And is there a reading guide somewhere? I remember the timeline being... confusing.

Hard to have an opinion about something you haven't read.
>implying people don't talk shit abut stuff they haven't read all the damn time
In theory, it's hard to have an opinion of something you haven't read.

Used to read it as a kid.
I'm old as fuck.

Same. I got into it when the 3rd trade paperback was at a mall's BDalton. The 4th trade had been out for a while and my girlfriend at the time loved them. So I bought her a set of 4 and life was good.
It was an amazing series. I didn't bother reading any of the follow up material as I felt the story told up until the point of the palace being recovered was perfect.

I've only seen it mentioned on /co/, and only for 3 reasons:
1) It's got some novel plot points
2) It's also got some really weird plot points
3) It's hard to collect physically
It's on my list of stuff to read for the first 2 points, but it's so long that I keep pushing it back.

I got into it sometime in junior high, when I found the full-color collections in the library's graphic novel section. They were up to the eighth book, where Rayek took the palace into the future in an attempt to stop the original palace from going back in time.
Kept checking the library and the local Borders for new ones and caught all of the side stories and the Jink series, set in the far future when the humans had just started to unlock their own magic.
It wasn't until after I was in college that I figured out the WaRP in "WaRP Graphics" stood for "Wendy and Richard Pini"...

Was thrilled when I found out they were publishing a lot of it online, but I didn't think the later stuff was as good.
I remember my brother had a hardcover of the stories from I think the first chapter to when the woods elves and the desert elves started getting along. I had a massive crush on half the brown girls but was too young to recognize what to do about it.

One of the most legendary indie comics. Shame so few modern comic readers know about the history of indie comics.
I started following it in high school; I had ordered some other thing mail-order (Art of John Byrne, IIR) and the catalogue they sent with it had a bunch of Elfquest back-issues (original series --magazine-sized). I thought that it looked good, so I ordered them all, and became addicted, picking the rest of them up as they ere published, at my local comic/card/coin/stamp shop..
