I think I kinda disagree on this one. Dante getting killed at the end of the shift where he wasn't even supposed to be there that day would have been the ULTIMATE pisser to a long chain of events which made his life look like shit.
I read an interview with Brian O'Halloran where he said he hated the original ending and was glad that it was changed.
As for there not being an animated Clerks series? It's a cartoon...cartoons have no rules. So I don't think it would have been a problem. VA5 - a (cheesy) flashback could have incorporated the dead Dante into the movie.
Just my opinion...
Cheers.
