hello i am back writing about the ring cycle by richard wagner, a guy i am not related to, and this time i have laid out my case for re-examining the incestuous twins from die walküre (and why i am just soooo obsessed with them) https://www.late-review.com/p/reclaiming-the-walsungs

After the next three are you going to write any on Siegfried or Gilbert Gottfried?
One is by P Craig Russel with art by Russel and Lovern Kindzierski.
Another is by Roy Thomas with art by Gil Kane, colouring by Sam Woodring, and lettering by John Costanza.
The wolf siblings ring emotionally like no other pair in Wagner’s works – “apart” from the incest, often named as first man made law, they are (in lived lives, actions, and music) grand heroic figures. All the best tackling them both🌈
