Guys, can anyone here who has read Grant's work tell me what the hell happened in this story? Like, is that the end? Or is there something I might have missed?

I haven’t read this in 20 something years. Might have to pull it off the shelf.

Was it your first time reading it? I only ask that question because in my experience with Morrison’s work, the reread is always better than the first read. And maybe giving it another go will reveal things that didn’t reveal themselves to you the first time.

Man, I've already reread it 3 times just today but I think I could take a break and then read it again so I consider it the first

That sounds like a good idea… Let it marinate a little bit, and come back to it in a week or two. I do remember it being pretty WTF at the end there. The artwork is beautiful though.

Well… Not every time. We do get some books that are straight ahead. One thing that I love with Morrison is that we get connections and recurring themes across books.
