You wonder why the children of America are obsessed with death? You wonder why rock groups that look like corpses and zombie comic-book heroes are so goddamn popular here?

It´s just the same way your victorians loved their tombs and seances and murders. The American Empire dead and does not know it. Like your empire before it, it´s only aware of the truth in its sleep.
Colonel Fiday, in The Invisibles, 14, vol. 2 (Abril, 1998)
