I did find it funny.
I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:
Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.
Kai "the spy" for posting a German book. I got a graphic novel signed by that artist once.

Congrats Stony, I guess your meta cover appealed to the comic fans in us. That cover is a very inside joke.
And I thank no one because no one voted for me, so I will shoot the dog.
There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
Yay, Stony!
