    [Turns and looks at the 40 volumes sitting on his shelf - the first of which he purchased in 2001]

    Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

    The release of a new volume was usually one of the highlights of my year. And now it's never going to happen again.

    RIP Miura-sensei - all of your fans around the world are mourning today.

    Didn't Guts and company finally get to Elfland and Casca healed(mostly)? At last reaching sanctuary for healing and rest can be a suitable end.

    There's a big fucking cliffhanger just after Casca wakes up and now we'll probably never know what Miura-sensi intended for that to be.

    I suppose if you wanted you could ignore the cliffhanger and let it end there.

    So, presumed fallen writer fallen no more, DWK came back. Briefly.



    Long story short, a combination of burnout, drug abuse, and MLP ending sent him into a spiral. But he's climbed his way back out. But he's decided to leave the DWK persona/channel behind, saying he has moved on past FiM. He has a new channel, Absolute Unit, where he's posting new videos. So far there's only 5 videos, but they're entertaining enough.

    He was also super appreciative about all the people asking if he was all right for the past 18 months of silence.

    Technically, an artist, not a writer, but I think John Romita Sr. was so instrumental in Spider-Man being the character he is today, that he counts.

    So, RIP to a comic book legend.

    RIP justwantingtohelp. The memes and the good advice you have written for everyone in MemeCenter are still the best in my life.

    In case no one knows, justwantingtohelp is a MemeCenter user, and one of the best. They have died due to an allergic reaction to their meds.
