"Death Blows, Mistah Cray...Death Blows."

(Carlos)

Hey, waddup Y'alls?!? how's it goin'?

......now that the last issue of Deathblow has come out and the story is complete, I just wanted to give a BIG 'Thank You' to those of you who supported the series from the start, and took the crazeeee ride with Azzarello and I ....so;

THANK YOU (^_^)

I gotta say, had you told me in my 'fanboy-tender-years' that I'd get the chance to draw Deathblow AND get to do it with Brian Azzarello, I would have told you you were smoking CRACK!!! BUT as often seems to happen, reality is stranger than fiction.

....then, if you told me I was gonna do Deathblow fighting "a$$-rocket-shooting-mutant-rats" while wielding "laser-shooting-rats", AND dukin' it out with a "Half-Dinosaur-half-man-half-robot" with weird fetishes... I mean, C'MON!!!

I can truly say that having done this Deathblow series for the past couple years has been one of the most rewarding experiences in my professional career, and I will truly miss Michael Cray, Jump, and Mr. Jiminy (damn you Brian, why'd you have to kill him?!? WHYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?) ...so Mr. Azzarello, thank YOU for giving me such a damn crazy story to draw, I hope we can do it again soon...

..and well, to all of you who shelled out your hard earned cash to buy the issues (^_^)

thank you very much,

Carlos D'Anda

Thanx Carlos for helping bring back my fave WS character!

Does that last issue imply what I think it does?

Is Cray the catalyst for everything we saw/heard about in the Armegeddon series?

Looking forward to EVERYTHING that's coming up from you guys at the 'storm!!

Yeah... not much of a spoiler.

More like an observation/question.

So I guess the answer's "no" and there was no point to this 9 issue story...

:(-

(Like there was ever a doubt...)
