Dear Alan Moore and David Gibbons,
Re: Ending of Watchmen.






...Ow.






Love,

Edited when I finally stopped shivering: I picked the TPB up at the convention like I said I would. I'm pretty sure I was lucky, actually; it was the last on the rack and the dweeby awesome comic dude sold it to me for less than I was told it would cost. Horray.

I read in an afternoon, all at once.

In hindsight, that was, uh, probably a bad idea. Or so the almost total absence of sleep last night would seem to indicate. Don't get me wrong, it was a very good book - probaby one of the best I've ever read in any genre - but. Um. Not precisely conducive to peace of mind.

Have you ever had the sensation that everything suddenly turned off? Or had the volume turned down? That's the feeling I got at the end of chapter eleven.

"I will give you bodies beyond your wildest imaginings." Can I get an argh?

I probably should have, er, warned you about that. Not that it would have stopped you, I'm sure -- I think I did the same thing, though I can't remember my first readthrough too well -- just... yeah.

Yeah, in all honestly, I probably wouldn't have listened. Once I get a good book in my hands, you can pretty much say goodbye to any of my conversational input excluding "Go way, I'm reading." XD It's gotten me into minor trouble in the past.

I must express LOVE for making me buy it. It's...um. Sort of horribly wonderful.

And you were right, Rorschach is oddly lovable. Sugarcubes. Hee. If/when they make the movie, they better not touch the "It's us. Only us." monologue, or I will get moral absolutist vigilante on their butts. I love Dan, too.
