So it's probably been 2-3 years since I've read the strip (regularly) so I guess I have some archives to go back and read.
It's funny, though - I did just pick up the second two Dark hoss books after seeing them recommended to me on Amazon as a "People who liked Let's Kill Uncle have also enjoyed Achewood" thing. So I bought them.
I don't mind forking over hard-earned money in exchange for entertainment value, Onstad has never owed me a thing, and even though I grew tired of what I considered repetitive work around the time I stopped reading, I'm still a little sorry to see it go and not be trodding-out sad recycled trope out of sad vomit joke.
If you held off on buying someone's wares just because they were a dick you'd never see a movie, hear an album, or read a goddamned book.
I miss you all. Well, not you. But everyone else.
