Sometimes Heyman Boyd would go incarnate

  • Sometimes Heyman Boyd would go incarnate again just to ride the shuttle up and down Dark Matter Corridor 458, read the graffiti at the stations, and watch the variety of people who

    This is great! We have someone who is dying, then the whole story dies for a moment, then there's a comedian dying while trying to tell a skeleton joke, his career dies, and he changes his life around to the eternal twilight of a low-paying, low pressure job. Has he gone to heaven? Hell? Purgatory, for the luvva?!
