I love Emmet as a character.  I look at all the interpretations and have come to the conclusion that Emmet’s PLA and post PLA story is always about grief and mourning.  The interpretations just focus on the different stages he might be in and the choices he might make.  There are some that portray Emmet as frustrated and bargaining for a way to find his brother. Some have him as hurt and cold from loss while others keep him in denial as he searches for answers.  We’ve seen plenty where Emmet is depressed and sad as well as a few about him coming to terms with his loss.
In my comic, the Emmet I portray is the one finally finding peace and learning to move on.  Granted, he has been reunited with his brother; but he still went through all the stages of grief emotionally.  As fun as it is to make this character really angsty, I really wanted to look at how grief can change a person to be better.  With loss we find compassion and empathy. We look within and then outside ourselves as we grow around our grief.  Grief never leaves us, we just grow bigger so that it isn’t the only thing filling us and we can fill our lives with other things again.
So this is just my little homage to Emmet as a character and how I perceive him and how I relate to him as I try to break down my own grief.  I want to believe that as hurting people we can heal. That we become kinder to ourselves and to others and that we allow ourselves to feel the pain but move forward.  For what is grief but all the unexpressed love we could not share with someone.  Over time, the burden turns into a gift we carry to the end of our lives.
