Positive reviews for Sweeney Todd (reprinted from a comment in someone else's LJ)

I see. They like it because it makes mass murder and cannibalism entertaining. Well, as a historian, I have had enough of that in my subject, and I must say that I do not see the fun in it. Hollywood, however, does, ever since The Silence of the Lambs and Fried Green Tomatoes. But then, an industry that relies on the regular destruction of its own personnel may not have any trouble with cannibalism. I wonder - has anyone ever checked the ingredients in Hollywood restaurants and caterers?

It ain't what you can do. It's who likes you.

Agreed, but still: it seems a waste of talent and of a unique voice.
Well, not a waste; that's presumptious of me, and if your fanfiction brings you satisfaction that's all to the good. But it would be fascinating to see what you'd do with your own fictional world. (Are your comics available anywhere--online or 'zines or anything?)

I long since ran out of hand-made copies, and I just discovered (perfect timing!) that my scanner is dead, so, for the time being, even if I wanted to put my stuff online, I could not. I will publish or re-publish a few sketches, and some of my comics characters are featured in two fics, "Harry Potter and the Silver Angel" and "Hermione Granger and the Nundu". I am thinking of writing an AU longfic starting from the premise of "Harry Potter and the Silver Angel" (where SA and her queen Athena offered their help against Voldemort) and Snape and Dumbledore call on SA and Athena after Dumbledore comes home nearly killed by the curse of Marvolo's ring, but the problem ist that I am mulling a similar continuity and a similar story for another longfic I have in mind.
