... In all honesty, I hadn't even realized we were supposed to think he was dead until people started commenting on it. I mean, seriously how not-convincing a fake death can you get?
And I think the thing about BftC that annoyed me the most is that there are aspects of the character that I are actually very similar to the way I envision him, but they were combined with others and just generally handled in a way that was horrible. It really pisses me off how they almost got it right, but gave us this instead.
