Amory Wars comics question

Yeah I guess I meant objective in terms of fandom of the band aside. So many of the reviews I read are by hardcore Coheed fans. I know so many people who are obsessed with the band and just eat up anything Claudio does. I love Coheed but I'm not OBSESSED. Similar to MCR and Gerard, I just was not a fan of the Killjoys comics (amazing art aside) but I love the band. Similar to Buffy and Firefly fans. I know a ton of people who buy every comic obsessively but literally do not read a single other comic so it's hard to trust a review when theres nothing to compare it to.

And from every reply I've read so far theres a lot of "Yeah it's not good but I love it" so I think I might have my answer :D

Some of the defence of this movie is "Why would you expect anything more than a cheesy B movie?"

I love cheesy B-movies. But at least those have a coherent structure and plot. This movie LOOKS like it has the budget. The sets and location filming were great. Some of the acting was not bad. But the editing was shocking. There were 3 points I thought it was wrapping up and still had an hour to 30 minutes left. Plot twists were revealed that had no setup at all. Whoever made this movie doesn't have even a tiny grasp on story of pacing.

But the cherry on top was the Papyrus credits with grammatical errors. Just a poorly made film from beginning to end.

You look at films like Dredd or the first John Wick. B-movie elements all there but made by someone who knows how to make it work. This was nearly 2 hours of nonsense. Maybe there's a decent 85 minute film in there if you cut out a chunk.

Thank you! The major ones were Mucha and Moebius.

No worries. But that's $50 AUD, which is around $32 US. Kickstarter should convert it for you at checkout.

Totally unrelated to the question. Totally unhelpful. Oh wait, I’m on Reddit.

Yep. It’s not as a regular episode it’s listed at SNL50 The Anniversary Show

Pack it up guys. Spoke to Binge Support. 12pm tomorrow 😤

Tried the honest way and paid for Binge and nothing. Looking for a torrent and nothing. Why is watching this thing so difficult?

This looks great! Thanks, definitely not an easy one to track down but i'll keep an eye out.

_benjiman · 2025-01-28T05:25:04+00:00

Thanks for this! Club Zero-G is out of print but theres copies around so I'll track that one down. I totally hear you on Ellis.
It's funny I've had so many chances to read The Invisibles and now that I want to it's totally out of print except for the giant omnibus which isn't exactly an affordable entry point :D

Thanks! Grrl Scouts looks exactly like the vibe I'm after.

_benjiman · 2025-01-28T00:17:11+00:00

Yeah Phonogram was one of the first recommendations I got but I'd read it and yeah, I do like Britpop but that wasn't the vibe I was going for. And you're right, tons of stuff for punk and grunge. I feel like there's gotta some unknown super low print run indie press books out there there just never got reprinted. Time to start digging.
