"We Had A Short Gun Battle With Him And He Lost And Died"

Laura Onstot tells the story of Seattle-area college cartoonist and wannabe graphic novelist turned stalker and murderer Jed Waits, and remembers, after some prompting, having him on her student newspaper staff. This story was a pretty big local/regional crime story, apparently, although this is the one that pushes the college connection between murderer and victim and the comics that Waits was doing. There's nothing overly lurid declared about the cartooning, in case you were wondering, and few insinuations that aren't either pretty obvious takeaways (the cartoonist felt unsuccessful with the ladies) or directly countered within the narrative.
