A long-awaited Christmas miracle has arrived for Team Fortress 2 fans! Valve has unexpectedly released a new comic for the popular team-based shooter. The announcement appeared on the official game website.
Titled "The Days Have Worn Away," this is the seventh numbered issue and 29th overall release, including special events and themed stories. The release marks a significant seven-year gap since the last TF2 comic in 2017.
Valve playfully acknowledged the extended wait, likening the comic's creation to the building of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. They humorously pointed out that while the Italian landmark's builders didn't live to see its completion, TF2 players only had to wait a mere seven years.

This substantial comic provides a satisfying conclusion to the storyline, strongly suggesting it will be the final installment. Erik Wolpaw hinted at this in a telling tweet on X, mentioning "the very last meeting for the Team Fortress 2 comic." While the wait was lengthy, players can now enjoy a satisfying narrative closure and a dose of festive cheer.
