Post-finale I wanted to make another image that stresses we shouldn't mourn what isn't truly gone.
Whether fan or official content, there's clearly so much more wonder and adventure ahead for this family and for all of us who keep them alive in our hearts and our creativity.
I also wanted to make something that sums up my feelings of warmth, love and joy for these characters and their world.
Thank you @FrankAngones, @theironwrist and everyone who shaped, designed, wrote, voiced and took part in this beautiful journey. 💜💚💙❤️🦆

While traveling this weekend I read a fascinating and deeply unsettling book called A Slow Death: 83 Days of Radiation Sickness. The nonfiction text recounts the Tokaimura Criticality Accident which exposed three men to unimaginable levels of gamma and neutron radiation.
Of the three victims, a technician named Hisachi Ouchi fared the worst. He was holding a funnel while triuranium solution was poured- by hand- into the precipitation tank at a processing facility near Tokyo.
