    Puts me in mind of this story by Poe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cask_of_Amontillado

      I know that’s what the comic is referencing, but I prefer to imagine they’re giving him the Henry treatment

          That was a pretty brutal ending. He didn’t get sympathy at all from those other trains.

            Well, Edward would still peep “hello” at him, at least. But, yeah, Gordon just laughed and said “serves you right” when he passed.

      You should watch Mike Flannigan’s horror anthologys on Netflix. There’s one dedicated to shoving as much Poe references as possible into it and it’s awesome.

      The haunting of Hill House The haunting of Bly Manor Midnight mass And the fall of the house of usher.

      The last one is the one that references Poe constantly
