So that’s where my teammates in online games live, good to know
Yeah if you don’t like team sports you’ll never get it
Situations like this remind me of devs that talk at people, but not with them.
Comparing Invincible to Saving Private Ryan is offensive. That movie is better than any arc or chapter Invincible has to offer. It actually has a life lesson to teach and it uses the gore to show the horrors of war.
Invincible? Rofl. People get dismembered left and right because the author feels like it. There is no nuance, no substance, no symbolism to the gore. Invincible gore is not just “a few pages”. The visceral imagery is key to the experience of the comic.
I read both Invincible and The Boys, I would give Invincible the edge but they're almost both equally terrible. There is no "acquired taste" here besides pushing the envelope as far as you can for the sake of it and gore porn.
It’s a shit series with no deep story to tell. It’s gore porn that tries to be edgy for the sake of being edgy. It never actually makes you stop and think. It’s like the Burger King of comics.
And yes, I read all of it. Terrible. Series like this being “critically acclaimed” is why Japan and now Korea absolutely mogs American comics.
The source material is even worse. It’s just bad writing across the board.
As someone who has searched hard, there is no high quality replacement.
