      I can’t be the only one wondering what the heck just happened with Neil Gaiman.

      He was supposed to be one of the good ones.

      I would not call it a controversy. Call it what it is – a pattern of abuse by a man who presented himself as an ally.

      Yes, he was supposed to be one of the good ones. That does not change what he did.

        I never called you the bad guy. Controversy suggests all those women are liars. This is exactly what lets men like him get away with it.

        Alleged pattern of abuse – nothing’s been proven. What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty?

      Its not just me then

      I’ve been seriously bummed out about it since the news broke. Now I’m not sure I want to keep my collection of books and comics that have his name on them.

        Hurt and disappointed is how I feel.

        There are no easy answers for us fans.

      I have struggled to know how to feel about this developing news story. After some struggle, I have come to believe all heroes fall and Gaiman is no different. Yes, I feel hurt and disappointed but perhaps I should not be as surprised as I am.

      Here’s my blogpost on the subject for those who are interested.

      All heroes fall in the end

      DL;DR: All heroes fall; let us assume less and ask more; thus being better people.
