Survival has more than one meaning — A Parade of Horribles, Matt Dinniman But it’s also true that green shoots rise up out of the dark — Absolute Martian Manhunter #12, Deniz Camp and Javier Rodriguez This is the first time in history when a whole generation is being told or tempted to have a machine write for them. You are one of one, unprecedented in the history of human evolution. There’s only one of you. So to give your voice to a machine to say speak for me, I’m going to be silent, and I’m going to tell a machine to express myself or to tell my narrative, is such a crime against yourself. It’s so dystopian, beyond anything I could do in a dystopian novel, and I did a lot. — Dave Eggers
