So I finally got to pick up volume one of The Maxx.

It's very, very rare that a purchase seems so right.

In honour of this event, I hereby infest this entry with my favourite section.

"I thought once I decided not to kill myself things'd be better. But I still feel just as empty as ever!"

"Pain lasts, kid. It's how you know you're alive. Sometimes I think this whole growing up business is just pain management."

"You get that out of a fortune cookie?"

"Very funny.

"Pain... Julie runs from hers. Mine follows me through nightmares, and you're stuck wading through yours."

"Waiting?"

"No, wading."

"oh."

"Nobody said it was easy, kid."

I don't know if the Maxx ever really knew my dad or not. But he knew me enough to say that he did. Maybe that counts for something.

God, that sounds awkward. I'll never be a writer.
