wtf did i just read
Would you like a cookie for finishing?
>>153798291The first volume of 9 issues is fine. The rest is trash.
>>153798291The story equivalent of those death metal album covers
The worst of Garth Ennis. Cheap shock value. At least in Preacher is correctly accomodated into the story.
Crossed is more popular on the internet now than The Boys and Invincible were before their adaptations.Possibly even Scott Pilgrim before the movie and video game as wellLet that sink in
Retarded shit for the weird kid with no friends who is now a manchild.
>>153800378Wait until people actually read some of the comics to watch that sentiment 180. The only way to make anything written by Ennis appeal to a broad audience is by removing everything that makes it what it is. In this case it would turn Crossed into a Walking Dead story with rage zombies.
>>153800713Isn't it just the X Y later series?
>>153800713>actually read some of the comics>actuallyDude, Crossed is one of the most popular comics on piracy sites
>>153800801Yes, among comics readers. But Preacher was lauded by comics readers as well but when the show came out everybody was praising how much it wasn't like the comics and how glad they are that they toned down the edge. Same thing happened with The Boys. And Crossed is going to be no different. The audience for a TV show is orders of magnitude larger than for a comic book and it's 90% regular people who mostly consume the most popular/mainstream entertainment on the market.>>153800781wat? i stopped reading Crossed a couple issues into Psychopath.
>>153798291Garth Ennis at his absolute worst.
>>153798291just wait until the inevitable tv series
Is the point that he sets up a bunch of very specific scenarios to prop up his super-atheism politics? Like that one about the father who doesn't kill his family so they end up getting raped and murdered? Was that one supposed to be about how suicide can be justified or should be allowed or to something?For some reason I don't want to believe Ennis is just a gross prevent.
i have read the first 9 issues, psychopath and family values, should i read badlands and plus one hundred or are they as bad as they say?
>>153801721>HeNigga it’s anthology series there’s like 6 writers.
>>153800973The 28 Days Later series
>>153798291a comic
>>153798291Horsecock
>>153806506tbqh the cover looks like mr hands asshole after taking one
>>153798291Shit. Good job, but I think you're a retard for doing so.
Why are only the shittiest of Ennis comics becoming popular?
>>153800973>And Crossed is going to be no different.Uh.Odds say that no, it won't be toned down. The Crossed adaption is being done by the people who made The Sadness and that is basically The Crossed Taiwan edition
>>153798291The product of Ennis thinking Ellis didn’t go far enough in Black Gas.
The Alan Moore take on this series was one of the most boring and asinine pieces of shit ever made
>>153809332OITHE FUCK YOU SAID ABOUT ALAN MOOREYOU TAKE THAT BACK MATE
>>153809050>He’s too emotionally attached to Tommy Monaghan to let someone else use him>the MAX universe is too rated R for the MCU
Edgekino
>>153798291i think someone got really annoyed about all the people larping on about how they would survive a zombie apocalypse or whatever and made a 'NU HUH YOU WOULDN'T IT WOULD ALL BE MURDER RAPE LIKE THIIIIIISSS'
>>153801608>We will live to see Shakespeare become a chud analogy
>>153801608It's gonna a movie instead
>>153800713>Walking Dead story with rage zombies.Rage zombies who talk like Tourettes Guy.
>>153800378I want to fuck her
>>153801853Badlands is the actually good one
>>153798291Am too lazy what's the summary of this?
>>153814684All I am going to say is: If you read the very first volume of Crossed, you basically read them all.
>>153809332I liked the linguistic stuff in it and the world building was kinda interesting. Big problem was that Moore only wrote the start and it turns to total dogshit as soon as his involvement stops.
>>153814684worldwide virus that makes people torture, kill and rape
>>153809052But The Sadness already steered clear of any sort of sexual violence which the Crossed is chock full of. That is toned down.Like the Crossed are not zombies, they are humans. They can talk, they can think, they just have lost all sense of morals and with it any and all inhibitions. Whenever we think "well i really shouldn't do that" the Crossed thinks "fuck yeah!"
>>153814684Rape and murder escapism with a Walking Dead coat of paint for mentally ill virgins that you can't convince me isn't a parody that got off the leash.
>>153801853Read Wish You Were Here
>>153814684Zombie apocalypse story where the zombies are fully sentient people driven horrifically insane by a virus that marks them with a cross shaped rash on thier faces. The Crossed, as they're known range from raging, slathering lunatics to cold, calculating psychopaths able to plan and strategize against the various uninfected survivors the story follows. Like other anons said, the novelty of "zombies but smart" wears off quickly as it just devolves into "what amazingly gory/fucked up/stupid shit can we draw today, fellas?!"
>>153798291Edgy cringe kino
>>153798291Poopy butt rape the comic series.
>>153814684You know that kid in high school who got off trying to be the edgiest kid in the class and said all kinds of shit to make the teacher's monocle pop off in shock?This is his favorite comic series.
