I’ve been hearing about Animal Man for the last few years, but never got around to reading it or really much of Morrison’s work. I already knew the ending before I started, but it didn’t take away from the experience at all (or maybe it did, but I was still floored by it). Even the issues that didn’t involve metafiction were just great superhero stories. I think the first 4 issues alone would still be remembered if Morrison didn’t get to continue the series afterwards.

Now I am looking forward to reading their run on Doom Patrol and dig deeper into their works. Maybe I’ll check out Alan Moore’s Swamp Thing as well.
