    — When you take something as subtle, ballsy, and downright mythic as Dark Will and turn it into the anvilicious, ambitionless, and dreadfully banal travesty that was the Crack Magick arc, that's not a big hubristic dream that went wrong; that's the utter lack of a dream, the complete failure of imagination.
