My mom died last night /co/, and I need something hopeful to take my mind off it.
Like Flex Mentallo or Allen Star Superman.
I just need something special right now.
Sorry to hear it, man.
>>93965883
I find Planetary is always good for a hopeful feeling.
>>93965883
My condolences OP, wish you and your family all the best.
I would recommend Superman Strength and some Calvin and Hobbes
>>93965883
the movie Life of Pi
>>93965883
>Allen Star Superman.
wut
I am so sorry OP.
>>93965998
He's a phoneposter and his autocorrect changed All Star into Allen Star.
>>93965883
How did she go, may I ask?
Why are you here blogposting if your mother just died? Surely there are places you need to be.
I'm sorry for phoneposting, blogposting or whatever else. I'm afraid to call the examiners office. I will in a while. I haven't slept or eaten. I watched all the LOTR movies through the night because they were her favorite. I'm not sure how she went. All I know is I was supposed to visit her Sunday, and instead went to a Game of Thrones party.
>>93966773
There I go crying again.
You can get through this anon. Feel the strength of us here and of your loved ones. Grieve and feel your feelings, but be confident that you'll be able to carry on
>>93965883
Sorry for your loss, OP.
I lost my mom when I was 15 and it was absolutely devastating. I'd recommend familiarizing yourself with the stages of grief and loss. Also, don't isolate yourself too much while you are coming to grips with this. Don't keep your feelings repressed.
Juggernaut is fun
>>93965883
Nice blog faggot
>/co/ is so shitty OP has to lie about his family to get pity recommendations
This wouldn't happen if you lazy cunts kept the Tumblr rec page functioning
>>93968096
You don't come across as a sad bitter cynical neckbeard.. AT ALL!
>>93968096
Why can't we just shove them to /wsr/ like /a/ does?
>>93965883
I'm going to storytime some stuff then, be patient as I'm phone posting.
it sucks Anon.
One of my friends killed himself recently, some of the people I take care of died and my dog has cancer. Read Fahrenheit, it will help you understand your grief.
>>93968165
because that would be Problematic.
I know that feel anon. It never gets better but with time it will get easier.
Sorry to hear, OP, that sucks. Lost my dad a few years ago and the surreal feeling of their absence never really goes away, even as the pain gets less intense.
Anyway so yeah comics lol I'd concur w/ All Star Supes, 90s DC is my go-to picker-upper (Superboy, Flash, etc) but Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows is a current book that has a great optimistic tone even while the death of Aunt May hangs in the background.
Take care, OP. check in with us
This is: The Goon and the life of Aunt Kizzie

Apologies for the watermarks lads.
>>93968596
I'm so sorry anon. I went through something recently and binged watched Gumball because it's a comfy cartoon. Maybe watch a cartoon that's just fun and friendly.

I think it would be better if you visited your family/friends/anyone else who missed her instead of staying home reading comics.

My father died right after I graduated from college. It's goiing to be okay friend. I'll post Flex Mentallo for ya if peeps would be okay with that. I have both the old scans with the original colors and the new scans that have them completely redone. Just give me a signal when.
>>93968806
>>93968832
>>93965883
Watch this. Other replies in the thread are objectively wrong.
>>93965883
Why don't you join your mother?
>>93968863
>>93965883
Go talk with your family and call some friends, coming to /co/ yo get better is stupid.
>>93968903
>>93968879
I know the nature of this website's 'anything is permitted' and even gives these devil-may-care posts some charm, but you are an absolute cunt, there's no two ways around that.

Tell us about her Anon
>"Listen," said Granger, taking his arm, and walking with him, holding aside the bushes to let him pass. "When I was a boy my grandfather died, and he was a sculptor. He was also a very kind man who had a lot of love to give the world, and he helped clean up the slum in our town; and he made toys for us and he did a million things in his lifetime; he was always busy with his hands. And when he died, I suddenly realized I wasn't crying for him at all, but for the things he did. I cried because he would never do them again, he would never carve another piece of wood or help us raise doves and pigeons in the back yard or play the violin the way he did, or tell us jokes the way he did. He was part of us and when he died, all the actions stopped dead and there was no one to do them just the way he did. He was individual. He was an important man. I've never gotten over his death. Often I think, what wonderful carvings never came to birth because he died. How many jokes are missing from the world, and how many homing pigeons untouched by his hands. He shaped the world. He did things to the world. The world was bankrupted of ten million fine actions the night he passed on."
>>93965883
I'm sorry for your loss, OP.
Sorry for your loss OP, my mother died about a year ago. Its fucking ROUGH, and doesn't help any how quick my dad moved on. It gets easier, but mourn your loss. Don't distract yourself from grief, comics will be there when ya come back.

Oh, look, it is the edgy neckbeard faggots with no friends trying to act cool on 4chan with their 4chins. Fuck off idiots.
How she died?
Lee and Ditko's early Spider Man run
>>93965883
I don't know if it helps, but try reading Silver Surfer Requiem or Kingdom Come.
I'll post a favorite. It reminds me of my own mother.
This song is obviously not about a mother but it always makes me feel good.

I can't imagine what you're going through, anon, so I really hope you can get some enjoyment from this story.
>>93965883
>and I need something hopeful to take my mind off it
That will never happen
The pain may numb over time, but it will always be there
I know from experience
>>93965883
>I'm afraid to call the examiners office. I will in a while.
If you haven't by now. You can't put it off forever.
> I haven't slept or eaten. I watched all the LOTR movies through the night because they were her favorite.
That's really sweet. Everyone grieves differently, but don't overwhelm yourself with everything about her just yet. This is Day 1. I'm concerned that this is a quick way to make yourself sadder. Honor her in small doses.
>I'm not sure how she went. All I know is I was supposed to visit her Sunday, and instead went to a Game of Thrones party.
It's not your fault, and there's no way you could have known that. You know you weren't acting maliciously, sometimes things happen coincidentally. Going to a party is to be expected, there's no way your mom would have judged you for that.
I don't have comics, but I will talk to you OP. I'll be keeping tabs on this thread for an hour or so.
>>93966893
Dude. Don't be alone now
And if that didn't do it, here's Flex.
>>93966067
you just did!
>>93965883
How about some Barry Allen, or Batman?
>>93965883
Hey If it helps, I can storytime a comfy capeshit for you OP tonight.
>>93968824
Not him, buy yes please, old scans when you can.
You're good people Texas Anon.
>>93973049
Lemme switch to the old ones.
>>93973055
/co/ has helped me with loss, even very recently, so I'll never miss an opportunity to return the favor.
We are all gonna make it bros.
>>93968879
go fuck an ox
>>93973556
>Fredric Wertham was fucking right!
Funniest line in the whole book.
>>93968721
THIS
or you just wait for the next game of clones party
My condolences anon... my mom died when I was 15.
It will get easier. I used comics as a distraction from the grief too. And you can't beat yourself for not visiting her on Sunday. How could you know? That feeling of guilt will go away too. Right now your brain is firing on all cylinders to cope with tragedy so right now distractions might be your best friend.
/co/ is here for you dude, despite the edgelords.

Another favorite activity of mine when faced with sorrow is playing Earthbound.
I also recommend silent movies.
alcohol
>>93973924
This, but don't overdo it.
>>93973924
Not a terrible idea, if he does it right.
Go out with a buddy and get drunk, just don't do it alone.
>>93973962Not everyone has buddies

This, we are all here for you, and you have our condolonces.

I'm willing to take requests to fill the last 44 images of the thread.
Oh actually there's like 90 more, my bad.
>>93968879
I feel a lot of pity for you. I cant imagine what type of life you've led.
>>93973924
Alcohol actually does help, but be sure to listen to this anon.
>>93973946
My dad passed when I was in grad school and I turned to alcohol to numb the pain and I definitely over did it. Also if you do decide to use alcohol, just keep track of how much you're drinking. Also pick up some gin, tonic water, and edgar allen poe's lime juice and you'll have the ingredients for an amazing gin and tonic.
>>93974297
Action Comics #810 always cheers me up.
OP here. Thanks guys. Some friends came by and brought me some pizza.
Helped get me through the donations call. Thanks for all the storytimes. For the most part, youre good people.
>>93974297
Everytime I read this I feel something different, thanks tex.
The magic word was shazam, right? Or shaman? I never got that.
>>93968879
This is 4chan but that doesn't mean you have to an edgy stupid cunt, anon
>>93965883
I lost my mother last year. Unfortunately I cannot offer a timeline as to when you will feel "better". Everyone's different.
Also recognize that the stages of grief are NOT necessarily in order. Even if you hit acceptance, you can cycle back through other cycles and that's normal and okay.
