Captain, I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.
If I wrote what I really think, I would be so sad all the time. We create to fill a gap - not just to avoid the idea of dying, it's to fill some particular gap in ourselves.
So, no more running. I aim to misbehave.
I cannot abide useless people.
The thing with the comics is that you have license to go down every alley your brain can think of.
I tend to tell stories that have a lot of momentum; it's not like 'and then months later...' I like things where the momentum of one action rolls into the next one so everything is the sum of that.
