It’s just that Carl is such an honest version of the Everyman. ALL CAPS DONUT IS THE BEST MODERN LITERARY DEVICE AND DINNIMAM SHOULD PURSUE COPYRIGHT. The world building is so good you don’t even have to try to suspend disbelief. Dinniman creates characters with the most despicable combinations of mutant filth and base human fears that the ultra-violence that Donut and Carl extract on them is so justifiable and satisfying that it borders on eroticism. Thank you and remember to kill, kill,kill.
