[Azazel005]

So I just finished reading this particular Icon of comic history. I'd avoided it for some time, yet decided that I was going to dig my heels in and read it to see what all the fuss was about.

I am certain some of you have read it...It's possibly the most effecting piece of Pop Culture I have ever expierenced... it has that imposing effect that I simply doubt I will be able to read or watch anything new for a little while.

I think it's the first time as an adult that I have cried over any fiction. I may have fought back some tears that I had forgotten... I know that I cried at the end of Kill Bill 2, but I glandular fever and had previously that week cried when my jeans were too big...

I know I cried at the end of the final episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer... although I was in a room with 150 people rather drunk and I amdamn sure most of those tears where out of sympathy and loss of nostalgia rather then the show itself.

I probably cried when I watched Bambi's mother die... but I was a wee child then.

No, though I cried at the end of Sandman, I fought it so hard that the pressure of the tears forcing there way outpushed against my skull and hurt, then I had to let go and sobbed.

I miss him... I know he was just a fictional chracter but I miss him.

So after that rather wimptastic display... I thought I'd potter around to a few places and see what others thought of this legendary little comic book.

Also I may need a hug.
