From Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man Annual #1, if I recall correctly. Linked for length: http://i.imgur.com/UVuKI.jpg Peter David, the writer of the script actually made some remarks about this story: Peter David posted:Ah, "Leah." I remember it all too well. I had a dear friend named Leah, and the previous day I had visited her in the hospital on her deathbed (she had to be at least ten years younger than me, in case you're wondering). She wasn't conscious; but when I left, I kissed her on the cheek and in her sleep she put her hand to where my lips at touched her face. On the way home, I got a call from an editor that they had a six page gap in a Spidey annual, I think it was, and they asked if I could have them a script by tomorrow. I said sure and went to bed with absolutely no clue what I would write. I woke up in the middle of the night with the story fully formed in my head. I went downstairs, wrote it, sent it off, and went back to bed. I later found out that Leah had died right around the time that I woke up. I always considered it her final gift to me. Anyway, that's where that story came from. Colleen Doran really knocked it out of the park, I thought.

Gavok posted:Where I work, a couple middle-aged women came in once asking where we had the comics. They were looking for the latest Spider-Man. Specifically, that annual. Once I helped them find it, they explained that they were friends with Leah and they knew that this story was based on her passing. Watching them flip through the issue and reacting to it was incredibly overpowering Man that is a nice story  These are the things that make me like this thread.

Oh, I also think this article is definitely worth sharing in this thread: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/rosenwald-md/post/who-is-the-route-29-batman-this-guy/2012/03/28/gIQA8nPjgS_blog.html  Not a panel, but tangentially related and pretty heartwarming. (I live in the area he lives in!)

It's like that one good friend you had in high school, but you guys parted ways after graduating. Every now and again, you'd hear about him, but now you just heard he died

This is a fan made piece, but I think it works quite nicely. Artist's blog: http://underdifferentstars.wordpress.com/ And website: http://danharing.com/ It's pretty big, fyi. http://i.imgur.com/hGE839S.jpg

That one Justice League animation arc with alternate Superman who lobotomized Doomsday is basically the same premise, just with certain characters and triggering events switched around. Injustice doesn't have a particularly revolutionary story.

Found this while browsing Imgur. It's apparently from a Croatian comic magazine, "Q." http://imgur.com/gallery/nUn8G

The scenes from where Superman is in his magical coma and imagines Batman taking the fall on the sword by being the one who kills the Joker is also really great. I can't remember what issue it was from, but I think it was linked in this thread at some point.

Uthor posted:The last story in Jason's recent collection of short stories (If You Steal) is called Nothing. It's a unique representation of how Alzheimer's is affecting an old woman. I don't want to post 16 pages here, but you can see them at this link. I do like the creative representation of the disease, though.
