I'll review The Two Towers next year, as that's only a few hours away now. For the moment, the best and worst of 2002.
Worst thing about 2002: It's a tie between my ongoing battle with depression and my ongoing battle for financial stability. I think I'll go with the financial thing, though, since I feel like I've almost got the depression thing licked.
Best thing about 2002: The return of Aquaman. I hate to admit that this had an impact on my depression, but it did. I don't want to forever link my emotions with my hobbies, but in this case the news that Aquaman was returning came at just the right time to give me a major boost that I desperately needed that second half of the year.
A close second would be finding my current job. While I could have gotten unemployment for a bit longer, having a job made me feel wanted and needed. Having a job that I actually enjoy has made all the difference.
I won't try to do a best comic of the year. I know there were a great many I enjoyed a lot. But I'd be bound to leave something out at this point.
This year has been pretty awful. Maybe not as awful as last year, but horrible all its own. I hope 2003 is far better. At this point, I'd really hate to see worse.
"It Won't Be Easy" (aka "theme from Star Cops") by Justin Hayward. It didn't work really well as a theme tune, but I really like it as a song to just have playing. It's a sad song, about loss, with just a few nods to the concept of outer space.
