The Autumnlands, Issue #14 conclude the "Woodland Creatures" arc and is titled "Touch of a Goddess." The basic story of the arc is that Learoyd and Dusty have left the floating city to go out into the world. They come across a number of different creatures, and the sheep-men and -women they meet are dying. They go to the top of a mountain, where they find mechanical women polluting everything. Then the goddess comes down, saying that she will destroy the mechanical women, but by then, Learoyd and Dusty liked them, so they're fighting the goddess.
I'm a pretty big fan of The Autumnlands. I don't read much fantasy, but I make an exception for this series. I started with it when I was buying a lot of Image comics in trade paperback, and I saw The Autumnlands, Volume 1 for about $6. I really liked it, and I started buying the comic as it came out the month Issue #7 came out. I love the gradual changes in the series, like Dusty's power gradually becoming stronger and stronger. You also learn more and more about Steven Learoyd and his origins, but not too much.
