I really love the last frame, with the way you drew the ground and the flowing dress. The fact that they're dressed like that makes me think they're at some event, like a wedding or a funeral.
I've never thought about Ophelia leaving both of the boys beyond by her own choice. It's an interesting angle, but I'm not sure how much I could see it happening. I think part of the weakness of Ophelia's character is that she's afraid of being completely alone. Like the way she lost her parents, she doesn't want to lose anyone else that's close to her. That doesn't mean this couldn't happen, but I think she'd be more likely to try to keep one, or both, of them in her life.
Also, I love how you've made Johnny taller and thinner than Ripp. That's exactly how I imagine them too, even though they are the same size by nature of the game. I just see Ripp as an average height, with a stocky Grunt build, but Johnny is sort of gangly (I describe him as such in one of the next chapters, even) but muscular. Pretty much exactly as you drew him. Also, I see Ophelia as pretty average, but maybe a little on the heavier side.
I like that hair on her too. I wish I could find another cc mesh that I liked for her. I might consider changing it at some point, but nothing really works for me as well as her current hair.
