It really was so personal, wasn't it?

I've been reading alot of tales issues lately & it blows my mind every time I hit the letters section. I recognize almost every name in each issue because so many of you here have had letters published in there. Its funny to sit & read this media of a franchise that is/was so largely popular & see only your 'friends' in there. Even so, Dan/Murph I'm sure recognized everyone as its always been a tight-knit family of artists/fans. The same people always came around, loyal as ever.

So many of us have made bonds with the artists & writers thanks to their open arms & acessible email addresses. I know alot of you maintain friendships with them to this day, as I too keep in contact with a few of the guys from mirage.

I'm gonna miss that, alot. Who knows what will happen with the next run of comics (if we even get them), ya know? It could just be us again, or a bunch of little kids, or maybe just a few new people in addition to us, who in time will come join us here. For all we know, there may not even be a letters section (being that I don't read anything outside of TMNT/Usagi I don't know if most comics still do the letter thing).
