I'd love to see it through your eyes love, but sadly I just don't. To me It wasn't hideously bad, just not very good. Also, the ' Moon monsters' etc made it feel rather on the childish side unfortunately.
Oh and by the way, feel free to de-friend me If you wish. I'd hate t think DH/Scott Allie has driven a wedge between us like this, but If you feel I'm continually raining on your parade, then have at it.
I'm sorry I posted that, Sue. I've known for ages you don't like the comics,and that's never bothered me.
I just came across that post in the middle of another night of epic insomnia, due to the fact that my long-standing mild depression seems to have become acute these last few weeks and I just wish I was dead already. In that frame of mind, that opening line just felt like you were laughing at those of us who like the comics and that you were trying to prove that the world of rational people know better than to be pulled in by that tripe. LOL icons always read as mocking to me, especially when I'm depressed.
Anyway, I am sorry. I usually follow the rule of not posting when I'm in such states. It never goes well when I do. :(
While I don't share your hopes for a human Spike, I do find your other thoughts inspiring. I found the issue mildly enjoyable, but not terribly meaningful - and you've convinced me that there is meaning to be found therein!
I've always been fascinated by the idea that people are "more realistic" when depressed than not. I like the way you point out that rejecting fantasies is not exactly the same as facing reality. Excellent point.
Plus, the board shorts and boots elevated the whole thing. ;P
