this makes me think of a convo with a friend the other night about seeking validation that harm occurred from the one(s) who harmed you (in this case i was talking about my relationship with my parents, mostly my mother.)
“seeking validation that harm occurred from the one(s) who harmed you.”
wow. yes
So the comic I had pretty much resigned myself that I would never own in the format I wanted? Apparently the universe decided that I should have it after all. I mean I most definitely didn’t get it for FREE, but I was able to get it. It’s beautiful. It’s not coming out of the plastic until I’m ready to cover it, but I can wait that long.
Seriously heavy, seriously beautiful, and so glad to have this to go with my Jessica Jones blu ray.
Next to buy in the series, The Pulse, but that’s never been hard to find for a reasonable price. Alias was just ridiculously hard to get. Even the copy I found was a fluke – it came in a delivery to a comic store but wasn’t part of their order. They’d tried to get some months before, but couldn’t. Then, there it was. And there I was, in a comic book store over a hundred kilometres from where I live, a comic book store I didn’t know existed and stumbled across completely by accident less than half an hour from closing time. And they let me layby it, since I was too broke to buy it outright. And all those things had to happen for me to have this book. Amazing.
