Not that anyone will care, but almost two years after the last "strip", I think it's time to put LC to sleep. I will draw the end of H.'s story as I thought it already back in 1999. It's bizarre how I could predict H.'s "death" six years before it would really happen. Because that's it, H. is dead. The part of me which woke up now and then and moved my hand to represent itself with H., lives on - but it's strongly weakened. And, I must say, I almost happy about that. As I slowly sink into my thirties, H. becomes a pale shadow of a past which now I wouldn't be able to sustain. The painful love, the strong emotions, the depression, the supernatural happenings, the bending and the breaking - it's all in a distant, blurred past.
Through the four seasons of his life, H. evolved and eventually changed into something that barely resembles what he was in the first strip. A fifth season would see him being so different from what he represented to me, that I don't event want to think about it. So, that's it: as soon as I will find some time to be alone and sleepy, in the heath of this italian July, the last...last cereals, will find their way to the site. And I'll finally let go the grip I held on this final page for two long years, without the strength or the inspiration to turn it once and for all. |
