It's not always that you can get a bit of wisdom out of a comic, but you never know...
I just finished this brief story arc titled Woverine: Snikt! The artwork is quite nice, by Tsutomu Nihei, a manga artist.
I can't the that the artistry is that awe inspiring. It's no Jim Lee, but it's quite nice seeing Logan portrayed as more of a skinny punk, as opposed to the hulking brute who metes out justice (or a form of it).
Of most interest was the closing line, a quote from Jim Morrison:
The future's uncertain and the end is always near.
Morrison's words may echo a quiet bleak outlook, but I think it more so enforces that mantra, "Carpe diem!" One never knows what lurks around that brightly lit corner, nor the darkness of the last office on the left.
When a badass like Logan is spouting off quotes, that tells you two things: 1) You are never too tough to well read, and 2) You had best listen to what the man has to say.
Shazam!
