The Coyote Gospel

A word about the title for my first-ever attempt at 'blogging':
Approximately 15 years ago, I encountered a remarkable story. It described a remarkably typical character named "Crafty Coyote". Crafty was quite entrenched in his place in the universe, living each day as he was meant to live it: continually experiencing one setback after another, very often the victim of a poorly executed bomb or anvil-dropping. He soon came to realize that maybe it didn't have to be that way. He and just about everyone else in his world semmed to be doomed to try and fail--time and time again. But why? So he marched up to the highest spot in the world and demanded of his creator that it should all end.
What happened next? Do youself a favor and track down DC comics' Animal Man #1-26. Read them all. Then reread them from #5 on. #5 is where I got this post's title from. I hope that by giving my random thought some forced order here, I might eventually find some answers about my universe, too. Or whatever.
