The Last of Us was not a comic originally. It was first developed as a video game, which gained significant popularity and later inspired other related media, but the comic came later.
The duration of the story in The Last of Us depends on several factors. If you rush through the main quests, it could be around 12 hours. But if you take your time, do side quests, and explore the environment thoroughly, it could stretch to 25 hours or more.
One great 'Last of Us' fanfic is 'The New World'. It delves into the characters' lives after the main events of the game. It shows Ellie and Joel in a new settlement, dealing with new threats and building relationships. The author does a great job of capturing the essence of the original game's atmosphere.
Sure, it's popular. Fans of 'The Last of Us' love to dive deeper into the world and characters through fanfiction. There are so many elements in the original work that can be expanded upon, like the journey of the main characters, Ellie and Joel. Fanfiction provides an outlet for fans to express their love for the series in a creative way, whether it's by adding new adventures, exploring different emotional arcs for the characters, or even creating crossovers with other fictional universes.
