Progs 1413 & 1414
« on: 28 November, 2004, 01:49:54 AM »
Anyone else get these this past week?  Or want to comment on them again? What'cha think of them?

I enjoyed them, though I honestly can't wait for some stories to end and some new stories to begin.

Judge Dredd Total War really is losing me. The subplot with Vienna and Nimrod is the only part of this that I like. But it's gonna be 12 parts isn't it? *sigh*

Faces doesn't grab me much either. I like the art style, but the story isn't my thing. I hope it ends soon. I hope the aliens destroy the humans. They deserve it.

Lobster Random is bizarre, but readable. I'm not laughing out loud, but neither is it turning me off so much that I won't read it.

Asylum 2 is over. I'm glad I got to read the first one in back issues before this second part finished. While things make a lot more sense, now that it's over, I don't think I care for it. The war between yet another group of aliens and humans really didn't perk my interest. I'm assuming they'll do a third part, but I hope they wait a while.

Strontium Dog is the only one in these two progs that I really liked. The king is hilarious.

Oh, it took me a while to understand the Droid Life in 1413, but once I got it, it really made me laugh. The one in 1414 was cute.

Well, looking forward to the conclusion of Strontium Dog next prog. Looks like there'll be a one shot for Sinister Dexter. I hope it's not dumb...

Hey, then there'll be some more Red Seas in prog 1416. I really like what I've read of Red Seas so far in back issues. And there's also Synnamon... hmmm, never heard of it. Guess I'll have to research that one. Anyone have any opinions on it?

Pretty much agree with all of that.

I think Total War's going to be one of those things that reads better in one go. Not that there isn't plenty going on in each prog, but the repeated visuals and the investigation itself seem a bit awkward in weekly doses.
