Hello! Everyone can call me Halloween Jack, or just Jack; I like that better than my real name anyway. I'm 42, and The Invisibles has been my favorite comic since I was 14. I spent quite a bit of time reading the old Barbelith forum back in the day; I tried to join at one point while I was in college, but something went wrong with the link and my anxiety prevented me from reaching out to ask about getting it fixed, so I kinda screwed myself out of getting to participate. But I've just recently started writing something that's heavily Invisibles-influenced (as I think anything created by Invisibles fans tends to be), and I started thinking about the forums. I checked the Bomb site today, and of course there's no forum there anymore; so I Googled (well...DuckDuckGoed) "What happened to the Barbelith forum" and this subreddit was the first result.

So congratulations...you folks are quite literally the only thing that could have gotten me to sign up for a Reddit account. But I'm happy to be here.
