The Walking Dead #193

[cyberghostface]

 

"In a way, killing this series has been a lot like killing a major character. Much, much harder… but the same feeling. I don’t WANT to do it. I’d rather keep going… But the story is telling me what it wants and what it needs. This needs to happen. Whether I want it or not.

I’m upset, too. I’m going to miss it as much as you will, if not more so. It breaks my heart that I had to end it, and we have to move on... but I just love this world too much to stretch things out until it doesn’t live up to what I want it to be. I got to tell my story exactly how I wanted to, for 193 issues, and end it on my terms, with no interference at all along the way... at any point. That’s such a rare thing, and it doesn’t exist without the unyielding support this series got from readers like you." -- Robert Kirkman

The Dreaming #11 - "Understanding"

[laughing_tree]

Literally any other IP, one can abstractly achieve levels of really high quality comickery without necessarily having to sweat blood over every detail. But The Dreaming... it’s a perfect storm of my own affection for Neil’s work, the need for emotional honesty from characters who are about as far removed from myself as it’s possible to get; the need for verisimilitude in unreal situations; the need for veracity of detail with folklore, magic, mystery; and the tonal expectation -- because of the Sandman books -- for a particular standard of cleverness, story-symmetry and closure. Short version: the bar is high. It’s all entirely self-inflicted pressure, but my god. -- Si Spurrier
