Dear Sax,
Allow me to turn the question around and ask: why do you want, or dare I say it need, to have a letter published in the pages of Astonishing X-Men? After all, you have published a novel - albeit a piece of genre fiction in which one of the heroines is called 'Magneto' - and thus have contributed to culture in a far more substantial manner than could be managed by a flimsy piece of disposable pop culture entertainment such as an X-Men comic. (Remember when comics aspired to be literature, in the 1980s? Those were the days!)
It seems clear to me that your problems stem from a low self-image. This in turns has led you to be rude and attempt to bully me by suggesting that I have a girl's name. I can assure you that a) Wallace is a perfectly traditional boy's name, much like Stacey and Brett, and b) your fiery arrows cannot hurt me anymore, as I grew used to such taunts during my schooldays, when I was regularly called 'Little Wally Girly Girl' and beaten senseless by the rugby team. It would have been easy of me to internalise those taunts and develop a need to avenge myself by pointing out that I am now the published author of five (FIVE) best-selling books, whereas those boys probably empty bins or something, but I have transcended such petty needs. I suggest you do the same.
Yours,
Dr W. Batman. |
