I've been a Morrison fan since I first stumbled, late from resistance to the Vertigo "cool" current, onto the Invisibles. I still maintain that St. Swithin's Day is the best single comic written in the past twenty years, if not ever. Morrison is, in my own humbly geeky opinion, the only comic writer that understands Batman (maybe because he's insane, as well?), and he managed to infuse the oversaturated, overexposed, far from its original core X-Men with a fresh ideas and new points of interest. Still, for me, I keep coming back to the Invisibles, over and over. Maybe there's something there that I'm missing, maybe not, but I enjoy the words and ideas enough that really, it doesn't matter; reexposure is always fun.

I read this earlier this week from Barbelith, and it's stuck with me, so I'm tossing it out for all of you, whether you care or not;

"the King may be the coolest Invisible around, but he ain't gonna be the one who finally saves the universe"
