Wonderful, wonderful story. And I was hooked. I ran about, buying up all the comics I could find, Transmetropolitan quickly becoming my favorite. Over time other things came up, and the feeling kind of faded. About last year, I picked up a "What If..?", this one was "What If... the Impossible Man got the Infinity Gauntlet?". My mind was blown. I was pumped. My friends and I used to have hour long talks about which Infinity gems we'd have and why. So I'm reading it, and my eager smile turns to a frown. The Impossible Man and Infinity Gauntlet, I thought, no way they can mess this up!" Wrong. The Impossible Man was in two scenes. The rest was the Silver Surfer crying about his planet being destroyed. What? Excuse me, Marvel, but what? Then I started noticing more of that in other series. And then in mangas and animes as well. And it occurred to me, comics suck! But still, though, there were those gems of wonder, like Watchmen, or Transmetropolitan. So, after a year or so of college-hopping, I finally settled on a major. Comics. And part of my biggest inspiration was this page right here. This here is proof, proof there are other people who want comics done right! I started reading Atomic Robo, and I realized, it's possible to have a comic that's got its proper share of ups and downs, but still keeps the atmosphere going. So, what I'm getting at here, is thank you, fellas, for doing what you love and inspiring me to do what I love too. My friend is starting a publishing company, and we're going into comics together, fueled by the knowledge that there is, in fact, a community who feel comics need change, and not just on the readership side. You guys are my heroes. It wasn’t until a few years ago I started reading comics, I think the first issue of a Western comic was the Infinity Gauntlet. Wonderful, wonderful story. And I was hooked.
