Ah, but as is well documented on this as well as many other DS forums, Quentin/Selby ignites deep, dark and forbidden things in his fans just as much as Barn/Frid does in his. Isn't that right PFSs?! Though I'm more than willing to concede that Quentin/Selby would have had to have been written/treated very differently post 1897 for his appeal to have remained as fervored as it was during the 1897 storyline.
I've said this countless times before, but the way Quentin is misused during Leviathans is one of the biggest blunders DS ever committed! So much rich potential for story was completely abandoned in favor of all this Leviathans-attempt-to-take-over-the-world foolishness. And don't even get me started on what a waste it was not to have deeply explored the Quentin/Chris relationship and their respective curses (or is that curse?)...
