"I haven’t always been a writer. My parents are writers and my brother is a writer, and I resisted that as long as I could. When I was 17, I hopped in a band’s van and I went on tour for a summer, and that was it, that was what I wanted to do. I ran a record label for 10 years, a small indie punk label. I did everything in music that you can do that doesn’t involve having musical ability. Eventually the music business, probably in a similar way to comics, will just start to break your heart, and I realized one day that I kind of hated music. I was resigned to thinking, if I’m going to be involved in music forever, I’m going to hate it for the rest of my life. I just stopped. I stopped having any sort of business with music, any involvement.

I read comics my whole life, so I just naturally fell back into another medium that is marginalized and hard to make a living in."

A better issue because it’s not ALL doom and gloom. I think part of this book’s problem by this point is that the cast is too large, and maybe I shouldn’t be giving it bonus points for returning to some characters I’m interested in, but I am very very tired. And very very emotionally exhausted. So forgive me if I’m just really excited to see Arsenal and Cyborg again

The WildC.A.T.s love continues with another team member showing up in this one, that was enough for an easy 5 stars (I'm easily impressed), but that was a pretty solid ending. The lineup is getting a little bit out of control, but for the most part I'm managing to keep tabs on all the characters. Roll on next month

This issue was good, and I loved the banter and humor, but there was a LOT going on, and I got confused by some parts.

Lots of heroes and vampires. A very dark time indeed.
