Farewell, Tackleford

I see [livejournal.com profile] sbisson has beaten me to it, but it's worth noting that today is the last day for that documentary of Tackleford Metropolitan Borough, home of Shelley Winters, Amy, Ryan and Desmond the Fish Man. (The latter's origin never did get properly explained, AFAIK.)

Yes, Scay Go Round has come to an end.

Kudos to John Allison for winding up a comic and moving onto new things, rather than stretching a success so far it becomes boring.

Yes, very sad. I guess we'll never find out who Desmond's parents really are.

Although the good news is there will be a new comic.

The new comic is called "Secret Origins: Desmond The Fish Man". Did you not know?

Yay for SGR. I have most of the books, and the last one signed by JA with a drawing of Esther playing guitar.

Ah, I carefully hadn't looked yet to see what the follow-up was going to be.

(The title doesn't guarantee that we will find out of course, but the voyage of discovery should be interesting.)
