“I know what it means to be a good man. Good men walk in the light. Most of the time, I'm in the dark, walking toward that light. I can see it, out there on the horizon. But my life, the things that have happened to me... it makes it hard to get there. That's because... I'm dragging all this weight. You wouldn't believe the things I've been involved with. It hasn't been all bad either. I've done a lot of good. I have. But that's not what people remember. It's not even really what I remember. It's always the bad. The mistakes. The weight. You can't really reduce it--it all happened, right? All you can do is keep going, one step at a time. Try to get to the light. But now... I've got this **thing_(Earth-616)) in me. It's heavier than the rest. It doesn't just want to hold me back. It wants to drag me down.** Away from the light. Into the dark. I have to get free.”
