>>93596538Well the first two issues were just bill jemas jerking himself off while trying to make a witty critique of the comics industry, with such a lack of grace or wit that its nearly painful to read. All of the references are so outdated, and all of his future predictions are hilariously wrong. The company wars jabs that he makes are just so clumsy and, given how bad the series is, nearly funny just because of the irony.
Then after the first two issues, it takes a bizarre turn as jemas tries to get metaphysical and philosophical. Honestly, it's so weak. The level of depth and understanding feels like something a 17 year old who half paid attention their religious studies and biology classes. He gets so much wrong, and theres really no excuse, becausr the ideas and themes he tries to talk about have already been explained and explored in depth by mich more intelligent people. And he got all the evoloution stuff hilariously wrong. He doesnt understand mutation and speciation at all. And again, his commentary is often mean spirited. His ability to ignore so many different scientific theories to make his science (bullshit) fiction is nearly impressive. As for the whole "god is the collective intelligence that makes nature work" is again, not a new idea. Goddamn its so hamfisted and shit. Its so fucking arrogant. Fuck. It made me so angry. Probably one of the least mature adult comics I've ever read
Completely nailed the battlefield earth analogy though.
In my 5 gb of reaction images, i couldnt find one that sums up the rage and incredulity it made me feel.
