Something satisfying...

litheraAbout being right.
In this case it isn't anything important. Just comic book stuff. But it is very, very nice to know a character well enough to know what has to come next. It also makes me very happy to know that I'll be seeing much more of that character in the future.
And I'm coming back to my thing about chracter death. It sucks to lose characters we love. It does. It doesn't mean it shouldn't happen. BUT! In a world such as comic books there is no saying who may or many not come back at some point. Also, it is very important to me that character deaths in comic books /mean/ something. For example - Jean Grey's first death was a good death, I think. Her coming back.... I don't know. It made it mean less. I'm not sure about Jason Todd yet but I'm still leaning toward it being lame to have brought him back..... but with what is happening in the universe, it makes sense. The door between life and death is broken...
So. I'm not going to talk about specifics because I know there are people who are hating all this. I'm still on the side of really liking it.

Date: 2006-01-22 06:01 pm (UTC)Any world that gets static gets boring. It gets so what happens to me with comics all the time, happens even more often. When I pick up a comic book, unless the writer is truly gifted, I can give you a general idea of what happens inside it. I love comics for the times they suprise me.
See, I never think that this is /proabably/. I want maybe, possibly. I want it to be something that could happen. I want people to be able to do something different. I'm not saying that this /has/ to be death but I want things to be able to surprise me.
That and there are just as many stories to tell with a character alive as there are with the character dead as there are with the character never having existed or any character to be a transvestite who only dresses in puce. Saying that there are more stories for a character ... Of course there are. That's what stories /are/.
