I used to think I could read these without crying. But it doesn't get easier, does it? It just gets worse.

Another SDCC without his genius.

Another season of animation without his genius.

Another batch of comic book titles without his genius.

Hugs.

(You should be getting the package any day now)

He sounds like an amazing person. I'm sorry that he's gone.

I realized something just now:

they had to fire McDuffie off of the JLA book to get rid of him. Even with all the editorial bullshit being heaved on him right down to having to write dialogue for pages that were already drawn, he kept on writing the book, he could have left at any time and continued to work on Ben 10 AF but instead he kept writing the book ( ... )

"The article also made me realize another thing, that even if you are just someone minding your own business, people just see you as another argument to be debunked or another pillar to be knocked down. Your very existence is something that needs to be 'fixed' thus they will do everything they can to remove you from the equation."

sadly most people in the world is like that. I mean look at this country.
