The more things change the more they stay the same. Which is what we see in Men of Good Fortune. Dream and Didi visit a tavern in old England and play a little game of there own. Hob Gadling the man who refuses to die. I love Hob, I love how flawed he is, in 500 years he barely grows as a person. He faces every up and down life can throw at you and he stubbornly refuses to change or die. This guy got in on ground floor of the Atlantic Slave Trade and yet I still like him, he does express remorse for it within a handful of panels which probably helps soften the blow. This issue shows that it is not the passage of time that changes us, for hundreds of years, through ups and downs Hob was always Hob. But finally even Hob begins to show growth in the late 1800’s and he shows it by calling Dream out about what he is doing with Hob. He’s finally made a friend, which is what I think what Didi’s game was all about. She wanted Dream to have a friend. One of the best things about this issue is how throughout the passage time there is always a tavern in that same place in London and it’s patrons are always basically talking about the same stuff. Because collectively people don’t really change. Technology advances but people don’t. We meet a few characters here which become important later on. William Shakespeare and Joanna Constantine great great great great aunt of the Hellblazer John Constantine. There is actually a lot of groundwork laid in this issue no that I think about it, I should probably shut now…

The perky goth girl, your wise older big sister, the kind of person you would want to meet after you die. I simply adore her. I love Didi’s relationship with her little brother, it reminds me of my own relationship with my big sister. She’s sweet and kind and always looking out for the next opportunity to call me out on my bs. This story has been so dark and challenging. We’ve been faced with unspeakable horrors and with people dying all around us and then we meet Didi who ushers us all to whatever is next to sound of her mighty wings. She does not judge us nor hold us in contempt, she greets us with a warm smile. She takes no pleasure in her work, nor does she go about it with grim determination, we all fear her, but we should not. It’s said that once every 100 years Didi becomes human and lives for a day to better understand what she takes from us.
